    Yep, someone at the shop said you could do with a good de-twanging, David!

    If you decide on a de-twang at some point, they're dead easy to work on and I know you'd be well capable of doing the fettle.

    If you're not doing so already, a nice quiet backstop / pellet trap works wonders.....Argos catalogue, concrete / slab enclosure filled with sand, a large cardboard box stuffed tightly with old clothes / rubber mulch will all be good.

    Good advice above from Our Tone Davy. I would also add squirrel as a good backstop in the garden

    Lol!!!!

    Don't you find, however, that the crack of a good old head shot can be a little loud, Pauly?

    Absolutely, PaulyBoy.


    Hey, I hear that there's some wet weather coming our way.

    An opportunity for some mollusc mangling?

    Yeah, the weather forecast on TV said "ferocious thunder-storms" it looked mainly to be on the South coast though so Tinners and Moley are . It will be a challenge getting a pellet in a snail before the lightening gets it. Batten down the hatches lads.

    Imagine the awesome footage though, Pauly....mega slow-mo camera and pellet smashing into old Snaily just as it's illuminated by the bolt of lightning!

    Maybe catch some of the slimy buggers first and put them on a steel tin lid to guarantee the fatal, electrifying attraction!

    As long as their gnashers aren't too ferocious.
