The next 6 yard postal series starts this July and runs through until December.

Every 6 yard MPL competition last for 6 months...why wait until 2015 to unleash your tuned HW45 ?

You may have an even better chance of beating them up with one of your other Webley's (of the SSP type) ......

I have noticed how much shooter's hate being beaten by anything with a Webley name on it - almost like it is the final insult and certainly something that usually annoys at the very least.

The HW45 is a superb air pistol but it is not that easy to tame for precision target work in .177 but I have not tried one in .22. Which flavour is yours ?

ahhh thats where the secret lies ;its a .22 springer with a new .177 barrel installed ,she chronos at 4ftlbs and is very nice in the firing cycle for a springer im getting the measure of her for consistency and look forward to seeing how she performs on the official cards ! which is always a little different to informal practise cards .

Good effort Bob!

It is always more satisfying to squeeze a result out of a kicking springer than to hit a higher score with a recoilless or SSP air pistol.

In the 10 meter MPL series we have a +3 point bonus per card for those that shoot with a "kicker" and this has helped to even-out the scores between those that choose to shoot a kicker and those that don't.

I never thought this would be necessary for a 6 yard competition but the proportionate 6 yard targets that we use are just as hard to score well at as the 10 meter targets are so maybe we should consider this for next time.

The .22 competition would not need this as they are all "kickers" in any case!

Any thoughts .?
