    You need a smack on the hand!

    Ignore all this calibre BS, up to just over 35 yards there is absolutely no advantage whatsoever of anything over a .22, and hunting with a springer all your shots should be within 37 yards!

    That is a plain and simple truth

    95/90/80 barrels can be made to fit with machining, but it's not a drop in
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I almost agree, especially now we have the excellent FAP / JSB 13.4 grainer .22 ... Up to 30 yards for sure, but it's just that 30-35 yard range there is a small advantage.

    Defo agree on the springer hunting within 37 yards - and frankly that applies to PCPs too unless conditions are ideal.
