    Proof indeed that the FWB CO2 pistols are very competitive and hugely under-rated - but it is a shame that Ingrid was the first to achieve a perfect score with one as we will never hear the end of it. Its bad enough listening to his never ending bragging about how much CO2 he can squeeze into an FWB cylinder and in this ( and other respects) he resembles a tramps overcoat.

    Hopefully IJ can display his prowess with his CO2 pistol at RMTC again next week - Mike keep's hitting 49's but not a 50 when shooting on the range against others in competition - but I am sure Ingrid would love to show him how it is done

    Ive shown you how its done, twice. The results are on the clubs notice board. Its very difficult to obtain 50s through streaming eyes and with cotton wool buds up your nose.

    As for CO2 filling. Its 4.30am and Im still experimenting. Ive managed a personal best of 272g on a FWB short cylinder (empty weight 225g) This was achieved by putting the cylinder into a fridge (-2 degrees) for 17.5 minutes and then filling with the cylinder pointing in a northerly direction.......

    Are you awake yet?

    Your nocturnal activities have always been a concern , but I still have the label you stuck on my short FWB CO2 cylinder when you so kindly filled it for me.

    The label reads:- "224g - Full - 248g".

    You seemed quite happy with the fill at the time so the increase up to 272g is a big improvement - well done
