Do you know what I’d change about this series?
Absolutely nothing.
Real world, no covert sales tactics or bull. Just plain talking and excellent tuition.
Keep it up, buddy. 👏👏👏
Thanks. 😀👍
Nice little update.
I know I've had days when I couldn't hit anything for no apparent reason?? Same gun and same set up next time and it's Bob on
Thanks. 🙂👍
Did the same about six months ago.
I bought an older brocock hunter in .22, and I had a old hawke scope to go on top.
Cost me buttons but so much fun.
Excellent stuff! 🙂👍
Always, very informative. Cheers. 👍
Thanks 👍
Another realistic video - keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
I love your practical approach to our sport. Thorough, jargon-free, information in a step by step presentation. One of the finest shooting sites.
Thanks Mike, really appreciate that. 😀👍
Great video i always enjoy watching and learning from you.

No problem 👍
Finally caught up with all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing the info you give, and for all your time and effort. Look forward to much more. My club has an hft range and when I get the right pellets (coming tomorrow...sshhhh) I cannot wait to put all your tips into practice. Gonna take it by storm broheem 🤣😂💪🤟
Thanks, and best of luck with your shooting. 🙂👍
Nicely explained Jeff,big fan of the K.I.S.S.. approach myself.Memory is shot nowadays so all the info I can glean and retain must be good😵💫👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎😎
Thanks. 🙂👍
Ooooo that spring noise, like an old 1950's metal bed frame.
😅👍
Intressting shooting! I,m a simpel target shoter with springers and a 22.lr and up too 6,5 Mauser. I have a AA tx 22. My wisch is too see drop and hold over in different ranges sub 12? i,m Swedish. Bad languwish?! Like your films and your spelciality for shooting air rifeles, and spec. springers!🥰
Great video Jeff 👍👍 Its nice to hear a bit of honesty especially when things ain't going to plan...you weren't having much luck doing that video, barking dogs, noisy kids, the weather, your car breaking down and cant go anywhere, the gun, the scope... you did good Jeff not to have a total meltdown on camera and start smashing things up 🤣🤣🤣 so hats off to you Jeff.. 👍🤘👌
Thanks John. 😅
Hi Jeff, just to say I've turned to the dark side 🤣🤣 I went and got myself a PCP Rifle..🙈🙈😃😃 an Air Arms S410.. it was second hand but in amazing condition..so I will give it a trial run tomorrow.. have a great weekend..👍🤘👌
You too mate. If it's anything like my S400 you'll be very happy. 👍
Thanks Jeff, I've seen your AA S400, she's a belter 💕 and if I remember correctly you've got a really funky custom stalk for it..👍👍Yeh The AA S410 I picked up had been fully serviced, and the blueing was like new, the stock had few minor little dings, so a brown permanent marker sorted that out... I stuck a new Wulf Hurricane scope 4.5-28×50 on it. Sportsmatch mounts.. so I'm good to go 😃😃 I dont have a lot of money and I'm not working.. but some places do Klarna and PayPal does Pay in 3.. so you can save up and pay it off.. anyway thanks for your videos.. they're always interesting and informative and entertaining to.. have a great weekend Jeff.. 👍🤘👌
Hold sensitivity,spring guns don’t like being rested either,this would account for the fliers and inconsist points of impact.
Nice 💯Great Video Thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Thanks for watching. 👍
i think it’s easy to get wrapped up in the “pellet on pellet” band wagon and with spring gun it’s an unrealistic expectation, not saying i have not put pellets in the same hole but out of 10 shots 25 yards i may get 3/5 in there on a good day . but you have to be realistic about your expectations of you and the gun and don’t listen to the pellet on pellet boys down the range 🤣🤣🤣🤣 i have told them a million times not to exaggerate 🤣🤣🤣🤣 plus it’s off putting for new shooters because they think they are crap if it’s not going through the same hole . one fellow was shooting 5 pence groups at 30 yards and saying i don’t know what’s wrong with this gun or me . i said are you kidding mate 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cheers Paul. 🙂👍
I’ve got a 97, and if it’s not pellet on pellet, it IS me, also got a tx hc coming, will be interesting, but I hear what you’re saying, almost impossible to do all of the time.
Totally agree pal, I’ve been out with my 97 this afternoon as I’m selling my 95 and changed the scopes over so I wanted to get the 97 back on zero as I do a lot of vermin control and I want the pellet to hit the engine room every shot. I zero at 30 yards and I didn’t come home until pellets were stacking up on top of each other. And checked all other distances back down to 10 yards. I want a clean kill every time and I’m a stickler to make sure that the pellets are hitting home every shot. Pellet on pellet with practice as you know can be done once you find which pellets your gun like best .
I’ve done the occasional clover leaf 10 shot group at 40 yards with an out of the box BSA Supersport from a sitting position which shows even a low end springer might be capable of it,but everything had to be spot on consistent and after a lot of practice.No room for hold inconsistency etc.
I was gonna ask how bad the twang is. Got the answer.
😅👍
Will there be a part 3?
Yes there will! 🙂👍
Hello. The tweng sounds like my high power Weihrauch 77k but yours isn`t a HW.! The barrel release is weird. Dianas doesn`t had that. My guess is now China/Shanghai !! If so, are you happy with that??
Yes, I am happy with it as it is, it shoots very well. 🙂👍
What is that a Chinese gun buddy
Yes. It's labelled SMK, but snowpeak, Artemis I think they're all the same thing.
