Hope this is the right place to ask. One of my springer's is an old webley osprey side lever, it shoots (any) 22 pellet I throw down its neck and i use it to use up the otherwise wasted odd mis sized pellets that my other springer's don't like, does anyone know if there is a pcp equivalent ? i.e. one that isnt too pellet fussy ?

Hi Windyridge, this is a less read series of threads to be honest so may be worth posting in General Airgun for a response.

There are four boring videos (various power, with or w/o shroud) but you'll get the picture from any of those

well !

BSA R10 .177 jsb match diablo exact , 4.52 , 8.44gr .. excellent

BSA Mercury ( around 1974 ) .22 = anything really , just dug it out the cupboard for the 1st time in many many years .. tried it out with the cheapest pellets I could find ... the rifle had been left cocked ( trigger froze up ) for years , I got the relevant parts and got it working , the spring was that knackered it wouldn't put a pellet through a beer can at 10 yrds .. so new spring , ( titan ? ) now its got a kick & noise too I that would wake the dead , son gave me scopes too put on , original sights long gone , together with end bit on barrel , in process of doing it up ( me dear old papa bought it for me when I were a mere child ( well about 14 anyway ) going to bring it back too its former glory . so me old dad would be proud , probably have it tuned at Sandwell Field Sports as well , help with accuracy ,, sorry for going on a bit , just that I'm a natural talker , specially motorcycles

oh ,, and hello ,, I'm new here

.177 HW99s - JSB RS.
.22 SMK19GR - Webley Accupell.
.22 Haenel II DRP - RWS Superdome.
.177 HW30s#1 - Accupell FT.
.177 HW30s#2 - RWS Superdome.
.22 HW80 - JSB RS.
.177 Diana 27 - Crosman (boxed) 7.9 grain Premier.

All the Weihrauchs like JSB RS, particularly the 80 and 99s - in fact, the 99s excels with them. 30s#1 has a slight preference for Accupell FT, while Superdome equal RS for accuracy (though not power) in 30s#2. Both are very pellet unfussy though, working well with everything - including 'new' Wasps - except the boxed Crosmans, (which seem to be the only brand that actually suits the pre-war Diana).

The Haenel shoots far better than it should for a 80+ year old airgun. Superdome wins here, but the old Frau also has a taste for 18 grain JSB Heavy and Barracuda Hunter - didn't see that one coming.The SMK is a very fussy feeder, but Accupell (domed) work well enough - plenty accurate for barn work...

A change is as good as a rest they say!

FX T12 .177 AA Field 4.51
Daystate HarrierX .177 AA Field 4.51, Daystate FT Heavy (ok accuracy not keen on trajectory)
Webley Raider 10 .22 Accupell , AA Field or Hunter work just as well.
