    Yes, congratulations to John for a well-deserved first place.

    I was rather pleased with my 48, as the HW97 being used was a German market special edition job producing 5.5 ft.lbs. in .177 - just goes to show that full power isn't essential for HFT (but please don't tell the government).

    I got my 44 using .22 calibre. Just out of interest was anybody else using .22?
    I need to practice more to have more lucky shots.

    Would that be the same article that declared a "stuffing" by claiming the first four places despite the fact that our Ryan had the second highest score!?

    Or possibly the same article that slipped in a picture taken from an advertisement in said magazine when there were plenty of photos available of our actual club and members?

    Well, Les, you could try lowering the power - it's surprising how little recoil you get with a heavy springer at under 6 ft.lbs. Also, the trajectory favours all those pesky reduced close-range targets.

    On the other hand, there's a kind of philosophical point involved. It's supposed to be harder to achieve a good score with a springer owing to the need to manage the recoil. Once we start removing the recoil by tuning/detuning, perhaps the spirit of the comp will be eroded.

    Good shoot on sunday, but cold, looking forward to the next one but think I will invest in a nice hand-warmer like Uncle Alberts, just the job!

    Daystate

    Wondered where it had got to!

    Had a clear out at AGC on Friday (nothing to do with any fiery club condiments) and am now the proud possessor of an elephant gun for HFT. Also, "her indoors" is happy, as the arsenal has been reduced by 5 items with more to follow
