7th and 8th April 2018 Boinger Bash --- Event and Payment Details

[Vernal]

You're welcome to try any of mine. Not a huge quantity but a few good ones

Thank you, most kind. I'm thinking about a short list at the moment, and will put something on this thread in the sure and certain knowledge of getting lots of informed advice

Put a HW98 on that list.
Good fun with the TX200 this morning. Kept up with a couple of Steyrs in the mint shooting stakes once I had zeroed the new scope.

Saturday is the best day. Some will be arriving on the Wednesday though

Oh yes!

[Vernal]

Put a HW98 on that list.
The power of the boing

I had a 98 once, SFS tuned and a very nice gun, but somehow we couldn't quite live together, and after a while it doubled the number of guns I have ever sold.

Current shortlist, completely unaffected by rational analysis, or any other form of logical thinking, but steered by prejudice and impulsive preference, is:

LGV - because my NickG'd LGU is so impossibly accurate (but not particularly pleasant to shoot)

HW95 - because my V-Mached 95 in .22 has such a lovely firing cycle that it a danger to my emotional health (but the .177 may not be quite so nice)

HW80 - because I have never had one, and worry that my life will not be complete until I do

FWB Sport - do I need a reason? My 300S just makes me want something else by FWB

But all this could change by April!

I enjoyed being Spartacus for a couple of hours but now time for another change

Loving it, Mike.

I can't make both days, So which day is the best for my first visit ? Ta

Saturday is the best day. Some will be arriving on the Wednesday though

As Pete says, pushironman, the Saturday will be the best day. Busier. More peeps to meet and more toys to look at and try.

Be great to meet you.

What will you be bringing along with you?

BOING!

[TonyL]

Put me down for the Saturday please Mick, you should find your account massively inflated by my payment! Always look forward to those lovely days at The Bash, but more than ever to the next one as the idea of a breakbarrel in .177 keeps flitting through my head, and I'm hoping that there may be something on my short list that a kind person will let me have a go with in April.

As always, it'll be lovely to see you again, sir.

Good show, young Pete.

The force is strong.

I can't think of anything else that I'd want to add to that list, sir. All very good.

I Love my Avatar x

Haha!

And I think it must have changed again since you posted this, Pauly.

So, you've obviously been spending some time down the gym recently? Watch it, Dave'll be getting all envious, like!

[Mole trapper]

Sudden decision had us traveling up to Bristol today, and l managed to add another meet up with yet another bash stalwart, Jonny! It's almost like train spotting now ticking individuals off.

[NewPaul]

I actually changed it this time Tone, all those T20 Ned Flanders were getting confusing

[MikeHW45]

I had a proper testing session with the new 98 today. My other half took my boy to a kids party at 2.00pm. By 2.05pm I was set up and blasting away. Once I got it zeroed and put a few pellets through the barrel it settled down nicely. Quite surprised with the kick from it although amazingly accurate. The weighted barrel definitely does its job for sure. Its was grouping 15-20mm at 25 yards with AA diablo's and I reckon that will tighten up a bit as it settles and everything beds in. If I get chance tomorrow i'm going to bung some H and N FTT's through it for comparison.

That's why I changed back lol. I put a few posts on other threads and when visiting the whats new section Ned bleeding Flanders was running the show

Gotcha!

Looks like you've been on the sunbed too, matey?

Unless it's all the sand, grime, blood and guts from scrapping with all those lions and other beasties?
