FEINWERKBAU SPORT and the ANSCHUTZ 335

[BTDT]

So to answer the question, which is best, the FWB or the Anshutz, the winner is as 'Top Gear' might say, the Theoben Sirocco!

Stone him! He said 'Theoben Sirocco'

If we're going to open up the field, I'd say my RWS 45, breathed on by Airmasters, was a match for anything pre-HW77 and, while it equalled the '77 for accuracy, the '77 won on its minimal discharge movement (recoil).

Totally agree. How dare someone come into this section and be controversial! They will be giving opinions next and we all know where that can lead.

But this does bring up the age old quandary - what calibre stones?
Do you use the larger Nori house brick with its sharp edges or go for speed and use smaller, but smoother pebbles.

I admit to never actually owing a Theoben gas ram. The nearest Ive come to it is a prototype Omega that shoots better than any of the Theobens I have had a go with in the past. Ive seen inside a few and wasn't really impressed for the money. Parts bin engineering - Webley this, BSA that and their after market service is renown.

Now THAT is controversial.

Can't be sure, but I think it did.

I've just read this interesting post and was not going to comment , but !!
I had my 127 tuned by Tony Wall at SFS and he and the rifle are great.
Tony has great integrity and is a gentleman ..I'm very shocked that anyone can find anything negative to say about this fine man.

I had a Mercury S and my 127..

I sold the Mercury..
