    Especially as I walked there in the first place.

    I'll give the Classic Carbon a go if I can borrow a suitable pistol. Nothing ventured - nothing gained.
    My main priority will be the MPL and The Dorset but the CC sounds like fun.

    What HW55 was that then?

    I am concerned that my office can act like a selective Burmuda Triangle sometimes - (must remember to destroy the photographic evidence!)

    I think co2 refills may have gone up
    I paid £50 for a 5 year lease and £13 for the fill. This was in St Hellens Merseyside. It is a dip tube (syphon) cylinder.
    This was the only place I could find on merseyside apart from BOC who where very expensive.
    I currently shoot a FWB Model 2, fantastic little pistol, very accurate and 250 ish shots from a fill of 50g and also a custom xs78 converted to bulk fill, this is only giving about 80 shots for 100g at about 10ftlb. Not getting great accuracy from it yet, but still trying different pellets.

    Would love to join in with a competition, and while we are at it, how about a league for classic spring pistols, I have a lovely mint hurricane that I would love to shoot in anger

    The MPL (Muscle Power League) not do the job on that one?

    It covers spring & SSP, Recoil & recoilless pistols.

    I am hoping CO2 gas is a lot more expensive in Liverpool than it is here - I will be finding out very shortly as my cylinder now needs a refill !

    The Model 2 is a superb pistol - I have one and rate it very highly.

    We already have a league for spring pistols - check the thread on "Muscle Power League - whats that then" ......read it all if you have the time (inbetween the banter there is some good stuff) and try to find a few team mates to join you so you can enter a team in January!

    .......not sure how good the Wobley would be though
