    Pellet fussy?

    The 2-3" groupings were with the Rangemaster Li's, which came good in the end.

    It's only had about 500 pellets through it so far; so early days really.

    I'll revisit each brand of pellet in the fullness of time.

    I was with westy yesterday and he was kind enough to let me have a quick shoot of the new Vermy now i shoot a Brocock concept super 6 so its pretty light anyway, but the vermy was just a revelation absolutly fantastic bit of kit ! shoulders very well too. Only problem i found is the sudden urge to go purchase one ???????????????

    Good review. I am a fan of the mk 1 verminator and have since steered towards daystates. That said looking at the mk2 verminator I may be swayed to get a cheeky one as my ratting rifle.

    looking at the pics the cocking lever is not able to change sides unlike the mk1 so not so good for the lefty shooters.

    Custom silencer added.

    One week on, the novelty factor has worn off and I'm getting used to shooting the MkII.

    As I reported in my original review, I thought the shrouded barrel was OK, but no where near as quiet as a HW silenced air rifle. I'm still waiting for an answer back from FX about the extra expansion chamber.
    Impatience set in and I contacted U.K.Neil about making a custom silencer.

    After a few PM's we had dimensions agreed.
    I picked this up this morning from U.K.Neil at the Greyhound.
    Here's a few pictures:

    To help others wanting to do the same, here's some useful info:
    MkII shroud outside diameter is 28mm (the same as U.K.Neil's standard silencer)
    Male thread on shroud is M20 x 1.0mm pitch x 8.0mm thread length (to clear)

    I haven't decided what finish to have on it yet, but in terms of silencing abilities, it's spot-on.

    Thank you U.K.Neil for a quick turn round and a first class product.
