    Nope, I'm selling the Crosman now and I haven't anything else that qualifies at the moment, barring my old smoothbore Diana 15 which needs respringing and new seals when I get chance - it can't get a pellet out of the barrel, poor thing

    I'm in the process of selling stuff to recoup funds for my latest toy:

    Yep. It's a good 'un though

    Missed out on a Steyr LG100 and then this came up from a clubmate at a bargain price.

    That makes sense, after a PCP pistol and end up with a rifle. I don't think you'll be allowed to use that in either the 6yd or 10m comps. Nice toy though. I love the Meccano look of them, hope you enjoy it.


    Way to go Paddy a first and a second, nice one mate. Better keep practising to stay ahead of the competition.

    Fiendish target this one. I managed to make all my shots count after missing several during my 10 practice shots. Trouble is, I was tending to aim a bit 'safe' and several shots were a lot farther above that V than they should have been And as for the B2, where to aim, I have got used to the aiming point for a round target so I was completely boll**** by this one. And yet I got a ten . It makes no sense, but then, neither do I a lot of the time so that's ok then.

    Thanks for taking the time again Paddy to do your bit with the scores, and Jim, keep up the good work with the diabolical targets.

    I know what you mean about having to aim off & getting used to standard bullseye target. For me I was going for the 10 while aiming off & I payed the price


    As said before lets see what Jim comes up with for next month

    D'oh! I meant an LG100, silly me! Already got an LP10.

    I've been doing pretty well in FT. B grade last year, A grade this year, and look like it may be AA next year so I thought I'd get a rifle more geared to that area. HW100 in a GinB stock at the moment, which is very capable but is not purpose built for the FT game.

    You still won't be allowed to use it in the 6yd and 10m, rifles not allowed

    Wow! I'm impressed. That's some seriously good shooting to get there. So you are good with a long one as well as a short one.
    I have a colleague at work who regularly appeared in the results tables in Gun Mart in grade B I think. Since moving up a grade he hasn't appeared quite so frequently. He shoots an EV2 and has some factory support too.
    Good luck with the move up to AA.

    I do shoot an LP10 in the 6yd though: PCP class, as does Cookie

    Oh, funny.
    This won't be going back to AA, it's heavily modified, non standard reg and barrel. If it needs attention there'll be someone who can look at it.
