    JSB 2015 testing today

    after shooting my first full tin of 2015 batch JSB heavies the other day and not being as happy as I could have been I thought i would give them some more thorough testing to see if I was having an off day or if it was other factors. The he first thing I did was run half a ton through my...

    A little testing of my old falcon

    i have had a falcon FN19 that I picked up for £100 including an old tasco 4.5-14 scope for about 5 years now in .177 sub 12ftlb. Before I got my FAC I used it to knock over many rabbits and it did a great job of hunting out to about 45 yards or so. After i I got my FAC I neglected it terribly...

    The fruits of a 5 minute hunt

    After getting home at 10pm here (UK time) there was just enough light to see through my scope on the bobcat so I figured I'd have a quick walk around and see if anything presented itself for the taking. I loaded up 1 mag, checked the pressure gauge on the gun, threw on a dark top and went for...

    Am I damaging my breech seal cleaning the barrel?

    Is anyone else suffering from breech seals not lasting long? I clean my barrel quite often and I think I'm damaging the breech seal. Should I be removing it to clean the barrel?? I'd really rather not seeing as it's a pain in the butt to remove and replace!! (im using a homemade pull through...

    Accuracy and technique

    Something I have noticed is that when I'm shooting my bobcat off the bench @ 50y if I shoot without my shoulder into the butt pad, just my finger on the trigger like many benchrest shooters do, I can get sub 0.5" groups all day long. However, if I shoot with any shoulder contact at all then...

    How often are you guys getting through breech seals?

    As per the title? How often are you guys getting through your breech seals? My bobcat .22 managed about 7000 shots before the breech seal just popped out one day. While it was out I replaced it with a new one and ever since they have been a pain in the butt! They seem to be going faster and...

    So close to MOA today!

    I have been trying out lots of things lately to get maximum accuracy, both my my technique and my equipment and it seems to be paying off finally I finally have managed to get near the sub inch @ 100yard groups that I have been chasing for a few months now. I think the last thing left to do now...

    Homemade pellet trap

    Just thought I'd share some pictures of my homemade pellet trap. I have a few of these, 2 this size and 1 bigger. It it has a steel plate in the back and aluminium side plates to protect the wooden box from the pellet splatter (it really does shred through it fast if you don't give it added...

    Scope zero shift

    Am I the only one that every other time I come to my gun the zero has shifted slightly? It never used to do this but lately it has got worse. It's slowly creeping down in POI, It seemed to move a whole MOA in one jump and has done this twice now and is still slowly creeping down. I have...

    Anybody have side by side comparison .22 vs .25?

    Hi all, does anyone have any target comparisons of .22 vs .25 shooting in the wind? i hear it a lot on here that .25 bucks the wind better and I don't doubt it for a second but I would be very interested to know how much better the .25 is at bucking the wind. It would be great to see it...

    Question for bobcat owners

    Do you find your gun to be hold sensetive with regards accuracy? I know all guns need to be held consistently to get too accuracy from them, but some are more forgiving than others and some will shoot all Over the place if you grip too tight/ loose. I only ask this question because, if you had...

    Did Ted ever fulfil his quest regards eliminating flyers?

    I suppose this question is mostly directed at you Ted, unless anyone else knows the answer. You did the series of videos on pellet sorting and came to the conclusion that pellet head size DOES matter. Do you still sort your pellets for any of your guns? Im sure you said that you shoot from...
