    Thanks to this section I've been using my HW45 more.

    & with the up & coming competition, I've been really trying to improve my groupings. I've got a snooker style spinner target & yesterday I got all the colours except the black in succession (thats a first for me)


    Regards
    Paddy.

    But Dai...the 8 shots can just about molest a grape but one shot with a 2240 will persuade a grape to become wine....

    I also have one of those metal boxed targets that have four running boars in there that you must knock down and then hit a central disk to reset. None of the Umarex spud guns can even knock em down. It takes a real air pistol to do that.

    Bring it on UBC (Underpowered Boys Club)
    That brought a smile to my face

    I have a one of >>THESE<< I shot each spinner in succesion the other day until the last one when the neighbour said "I must be giving you some luck" & I missed the black with my HW45. First time ever. The discs were being hit HARD. I wonder what the pellet strike would be with my Gamo or skif?

    I must say there are some lovely 2240 etc out there, and if if i needed the power or one came along at the right price i would have one. But nothing those power houses could do is a much fun as shooting off 8 rounds in a couple of seconds (10 on the 586). Power or Fun people it's your choice.
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    I think we should stick with UBC, even though I don't own a Umarex, myself.

    That one above's a real beauty, though! What is it?

    Andy, what exactly did they do to alter the pistol from stock?

    Stop trying to spoil our fun you dirty RAPEist

    IMO the Umarexes (Umarexi?) are powerful enough for fun guns. I can shoot them with my non-airgunner mates and not worry too much about them shooting through the fence into next door's cat or through my shoe into my foot

    They won't put a hole in a pellet tin but they'll go through a Coke can no problem... also as I discovered they'll shoot through a big cardboard box packed full with more cardboard, then through a foam camping mat, before leaving a nice pellet-sized dent in the plaster of the wall
