    Hi

    Don't bother with the Gamo target box, i had one and it soon stopped working.
    They have plastic spacers in the top part of the box and as soon as a pellet hits these they break then everything starts to go downhill from there on.
    I replaced mine with metal ones, that cured that problem but then the spring type part that connects to the middle resetter got bent and everything kept jamming up.
    It soon found its way into the dustbin.
    I would just get a spinner type target if i were you, less parts to go wrong.

    Thanks all for the welcome.

    I assume that these are a much better plinking target?

    Paul_C,

    Thanks, as you can see I really like my mechanical and electronic toys! I also like to understand what makes them work and try and explain that for other people.

    I will add an airgun section to my site when I eventually make my purchases.

    I have been looking for a local club as well. The nearest one to me I have found is the Lincs HFT. So I may go along and have a look. Although I can see this leading to me purchasing a rifle!

    Thanks

    Mark
