    Edgun Matador r3m worth a punt?

    I am based in UK and so purchasing an airgun over 12ftlbs on a firearms certificate is a long and dreary process, accordingly you want to make sure you get it right. In this regard looking for any comments on an r3m matador (long) as one in .22 is up for sale and is calling to me. Not a lot on...

    Collective wisdom on Fx Impact 25

    Lockdown hit just as I traded in my 25cal streamline for a 25cal Impact mark 2 with pp. Que a three month wait for my local Registered Firearms Dealer to open again. Finally got my mitts on the rifle this week and managed to cram in two shooting sessions when everyone is asleep (light until past...

    25 cal JSB Hades test

    I received 25 of the 25 cal hades this evening to test. Went right out to test before it got dark and shot all 25 at 50 yards in a slight breeze (zero was for the jsb kings). I was using an FX Streamline with a smooth twist barrel and an Airmax 6x24x56. The pellet is what looks like a cut up...

    Worth the upgrade?

    I have been fiddling with my 25 Streamline. Currently set to shoot jsb kings at 875ftps for a fantastic 65 shots (huma regulator installed). I keep reading about slugs and shooting the heavies at 900ftps and I am wondering whether the Crown or Impact would be a worthy upgrade to get the heavies...

    Best Speed for JSB Kings

    I have finally got round to installing a huma reg in my 25 Streamline set to 140bar. I have set up the Rifle to shoot the jsb kings at 910ftps which gives me around 800ftps with the jsb heavies which are good in the wind. The heavies are not as accurate as the Kings in my smooth twist and...

    How many airguns is too many

    I now own three springers and three pcp airguns, having previously thinned the herd to just three before Christmas a spending spree has undone all my good work. I now have to buy new scopes to match which is getting expensive.... Luckily the wife can't tell the difference between a rapid seven...

    Wolverine R

    My brand spanking new Wolverine R in. 22 is ready for collection from my rdf this Saturday. For the guys already shooting one of these rifles, what are your thoughts and any tips on set up and pellet preference? Wishing away the next few days now till I get my hands on the rifle and can sneak...

    Wolverine or Bantam

    I am replacing my old trusty fac theoben rapid seven in. 22 for a new toy. The rapid has severed me well but I can't push it past 24flbs as it is an old 16inch mark one: I am sure someone can but beyond my skills. I have had a look at the Crown and Cricket but they just didn't fit. Will look at...

    My take on the Streamline .25

    I acquired a.25 streamline a few months ago following the grant of my fac licence. I have shot sub12flb airguns all my days but the streamline, together with a mark one Rapid 7, represents my first foray into high powered airguns. I live in Scotland, hence the tight gun controls. I have since...

    Streamline magazine 25

    I have been out and about with my new fx streamline in 25 and taken quite a few rabbits out as the nights get longer. I bought two standard royale magazines (11shot) second hand as I had assumed they would fit and was keen to have more than one ten shot, unfortunately they do not. There is a...

    Fac Airguns in UK

    I live in Scotland and thus airguns growing up were of a sub 12flb (no fire arms certificate required) variety, good for head shot rabbits out to 40 odd yards but not much else. A few years ago I bought a property with a large garden and a large rabbit problem to go along with it. Cracked out my...
