I got the LCS SK 19 in .22 caliber and it can shoot slugs. Right now I'm running the Javelin 23 grain .218's at 950 fps and I have no problem with accuracy picking off starlings, pigeons and other pest birds at 100 yards plus. The trigger pull long and rolling but it has never been a problem for me shooting. In fact for whatever reason is easier to stay on target during trigger up take. I rarely shoot the rifle in full auto but instead like the semi-auto feature for quick follow up shots at multiple pest birds. I always make it a habit when loading to countersink ammo, so rounds don ..read more

Dear lads. Gentlemen all.
I've been out of the shooting Arena for a long time. Over 6 years now. The reason was failing eyesight due to onsetting cataracts and general degradation of my eyesight due to age. I'm 66 now. This meant I could no longer focus my scopes to shoot to a high standard of accuracy. As I am a professional artist and illustrator this has been a very worrying time for my career and my shooting has had to take a long backseat. Imagine trying to shoot a 30 yard group with totally unfocused scopes and the target blurred and you have an idea what it's been like.

I applied for a variation on my firearms ticket to allow me to buy a .25 fac air rifle which as some of you know I have really missed having in my hunting life and whilst my .22 fac Wildcat is a great gun, I NEED a .25 again. Well my ticket came through on Saturday so I am ready to go and buy one other than the win on the lotto that would be quite helpful , it is in my mind to move on my Tikka .22lr and my Sako Quad hmr / wmr because the .25 will be totally fed on slugs (not the slimy ones) so I am not so sure I need the rimfire rifles now. A trip to Pickering Guns ..read more

Well got this off a mate
Walnut stock is a bit snappy from the action when fired
So I'm going to tune it
But don't know when
Iv had 4 or 5 of them in the past
But if I can get this to shoot as good as the rest I'll be a happy man
It's fitted with hawk Panarama
4x12x50 scopes

Since my Benjamin Maximus is still in parts and I just haven't been in the mood to fix it decided to get a new one because it's been a few years and I miss my PCP. Crazy how cheap they've gotten for a decent one anyhow got a 10% off coupon and and picked duo this little girl for $280 shipped. Thing is stupid quiet. I mean seriously quiet. And pretty good so far with accuracy too. Need to get some more pellets because all I had where these cheap ones from the feed store .
Also need to brush up on my wind reading because the little wind I had was whipping around @50yd and speed me out a bit. Tha ..read more
