Thanks Lewis ........ you are a National Treasure :D .... Kind regards, Harry.

u-oh Harry has a new toy, I am now preparing myself to see tiny holes in paper and small critters are no chance! :D

Look forward to see how your girly one goes Harry.

Cheers

Glad to see you have your 300s Harry . Your gun is a year newer then mine, and no doubt has that most excellent of triggers. It's just a joy to pull the trigger.
What mounts are you using on her ?.

I have been shooting RWS Meisterkugeln 8.2g pellets. But then I am almost always shooting at 10 meters with the match sights.

Enjoy your old school toy,
Daisy

The mounts are SportsMatch I think Medium David. At 28 yards/ 25 m it looks like the JSB Exact round nose may be the best which is good for the purposes I have in mind. It will be interesting to see just what it will do when it has settled in from the re-build. Already I have a couple of 5 shot groups that will go 0.20 inches or better at 25 m.
Yes, the trigger is amazing and I fear it may spoil me; but then I have never been real fussy about triggers ........ Lots to do! .... And I hope I may get better at the manly art of unassisted off-shoulder shooting ..... you certainly have.....Kind regards, Harry
