Rover Man Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 must feel like a 12g going off compared to the R10 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Lol it did when it was in the plastic tactical stock but due to the weight of the wooden stock and the gigantic scope it's actually quite calm now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I also keep eying up a FX Wildcat for some reason though I'd prefer an Impact but as someone said at the range the impacts kind of wasted at the legal limit and is more suited in FAC form. Either way I'd have to sell Contrast to get one or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Did some pellet testing today and it seems like the R10 prefers Bisley Long Range Gold and Magnums. I have to say that I found it quite interesting to find out what it likes and I also learned that the R10 isn't too fussed by wind obviously it affected it but no where near as much as I thought it would. I think I also found out why I was getting some really random shots last time, I think the gauge is slightly off due to the different regulator in it.

johninderby Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 3mm steel plate and 8mm thick rubber to cover it arrived. Backing plate for mounting target holder. Now the hard part clear out the shed so target can be mounted inside on back wall. Usefull having a high security steel shed made from heavy guage steel.

johninderby Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Unfortunately no. Wet & windy conditions gave it a reprieve. Weather outlook is better for a Tuesday so fingers crossed. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rover Man Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Nice Bren gun. Real deac or replica ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autobutcher Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Deac, old spec so working action, strip able etc. It's a mk2 Aussie made model I couldn't resist when a mate who is a collector told me about it. He knows some very interesting people (all legit!) who deal with deacs and equipment. I'm compiling a shopping list for every payday. haha I had a pic of my grandad stood with one when he was in the 7th Armoured giving Rommel a slap, so they always tug at the heartstrings a bit. Couldn't believe how heavy it is, with a empty mag I can barely hold the thing up to my shoulder for long, balls to humping this thing plus ammo and kit for long! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 very nice. My Dad god rest him was a Bren gun carrier for the first battalion coldstream guards from the early 50's. His claim to fame was loosing the spare barrel on Brecon beacon and being shot in the leg by one on the range lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I have a club down the road from me, I'm thinking of emailing them to join. What would be a good starter club gun for a newbie ? i have shot before but it was years ago that I sold my .22 air rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
