    Mmmm...at least the screw top Wasp tins ooze quality compared to the likes of the fragile fall-off lid Suprdome tins - why an expensive quality pellet in a crap tin is beyond me?

    However, the last batch of Wasps I bought were not that bad, the nose of the pellet being fairly clean of mould marks and grouped just as good using my Superstar as of the Superdomes using my HW77K.....

    By the way, annually, there are many serious injuries and deaths in homes where stools, some of them old and rickety, have been used to change light bulbs and other such uses.....Do you think I should hand mine (the stool of course) to the police during this latest amnesty?

    I think handing in stools to the police is a particularly precarious procedure unlikely to encounter a great deal of appreciation by the police on receipt of the aforementioned object.

    It would undoubtably affect the aromatic air quality of the police station, for a start.

    Use of rubber gloves is highly recommended !��

    If you take your stools out in public, please make sure they are covered. You may be safe in the police station but there is no guarantee the police won't shoot you for having a chair leg in a public place.

    It was only last week when I was in a bar and a nice young man asked me if I wanted my stool pushing in!!

    Original 5.56 eley were still available mid/late 90’s from memory. My innova used to love em. It was around the late 90’s that they also introduced the lilac .22’s

    Going off a quick search, it would appear that the ‘poor’ wasps started to filter in around late 2002ish
