    Single shot pcp

    How many of you using a .177 single shot pcp get on with loading the small pellet when shooting at night?

    I have an HW100 with a single shot mag and don't have any problems. My custom stock won't take a 14 shot mag.
    Gives my pellets wings

    I had a single shot Titan in .22, day and night was a pain especially if a quick follow up shot was needed.
    Had to get a multi-shot instead for hunting.

    I have used a single shot .177.
    I can load pellets by feel until my finger tips go numb.
    I wear a right hand glove and a fingers less left hand.

    This last winter I seemed to use .22.
    I have recently bought a magazine fed rifle.
    Repariere nicht, was nicht kaputtist.

    Personaly I am a 22 man, and definitely multishot at night, you never know when you might need that second shot quickly.

    I personally dont mind em,

    I have a very elderly .22 Falcon FN19, a slightly younger .22 AA s-300, a .177 AA s-400 and an FAC .22 AA s-400 extra.

    Also have a single shot BSA martini .22lr which has been circumcised to 12", moderated and scoped that is a lovely (although DAMN heavy) summer evening bunny sniping tool!

    Previously had a custom barrelled ruger no.1 in .243 which was also the absolute dogs dangling bits for foxing (boy do I regret parting with it!!), and although VIKING ARMS have quoted a supply lead time of 3 years, I will be buying another in 6.5creedmore.

    As I said I dont mind single shot
