Paul Hogarth came up with the original design but Dave designed the PH6 SE.

The original design of the PH6 was for an 8 shot rifle: a design submitted
to Daystate by club member Paul Hogarth (PH). Rob Thompson and Simon
Gibbon both carried out some additional design work and the new rifle
emerged as the PH6 six shot repeater. Uniquely amongst precharged rifles,
the PH uses a Winchester style-loading gate into a Colt type wheel: - no
wonder it was popular in America! The PH6 was a solid CNC machined
breechblock that sat atop a standard Huntsman or Harrier "sledge" (or
cylinder) therefore a retrofit to other similar age guns is an option. The PH6 action
was silky smooth, fast firing and problems with the first batch of wheels
over rotating had been overcome. The loading cycle did however take some
getting used to as the chamber you loaded rotates anticlockwise
and is 5 shots away from its go. You either loved it or hated it but you only get 6 shots.
if you see a ph6 se in black, buy it. theres 2 i believe.
Thanks for all your advice.
There isn’t a gauge on this particular rifle so I’ve always filled it to its SWP.
Mistake, but I didn’t know different.
Filled to 175 bar. As per instructions from Daystate and it’s a different gun.
I’m happy now.
