    Good thinking, John.

    I don't think he's desperate for a quick sale so, when the Bash Sales Thread is opened, I could stick it on there first. Then, if there are no takers, take it down and place it on the table.

    Did you manage to get the pellet testing with the SR done the other week?

    I would have thought that a nice HW moddy would go pretty quickly !

    Yes, I had fun with the .22 SR Tony !
    It's liking JSB Exact Jumbos in preference to AA DF's, Crossie Prems (boxed) Superdomes, Eley Wasp and a few others. I think I mentioned it on another thread but it seems to prefer pellets with a larger diameter so I'm going to put some F&TT's 5.53 and maybe 5.54 if I can get them ?
    It's a fabulous air rifle though and I wouldn't mind another in .177 if I could find a "Kack-Hand" version that is !

    Excellent, John.

    Re the "larger" FTTs, though, I wonder if the stated sizes actually mean that much thinking back to Brian's findings (and your experience when you visited)???????

    Re the .177, all things come to those who wait.

    No they probably won't Tony, I too remember spending a considerable amount of time at Brian's range sizing .177 pellet brands.
    The 5.53/4 prefix is only an indication of what the actual diameter will be but I need to try them in any case !

    Just reading the article penned (crayoned?) by our very own tinbum. Good read but who owns the tool kit in the main photo. Can't be Nick, not enough hammers
