"spend your money on a scope and what change you have left get a gun"
Is what I learned recently.
I believe there are events for Springer rifles in HFT also, so every one can have a go even if you can't afford the cheapest second hand PcP set up. Any cheapy sub 12ftlb Springer can use, it's All about putting that pellet where its needed, I had a friend a few years,ago that had an old Czech made Relum Tornado that he bought at a car boot sale, for 20 quid,(he was robbed) :) anyway we were shooting the old swan red match sticks at 30 yards in his parents orchard, I was using my brand new weihraunch hw 77 with a Nikko Sterling 3-9 x 40 compared to his old 4 x 20 bsa scope, Well he put me to shame has he was knocking them down like matchsticks, excuse the pun, he could even just shoot the heads which made a nice little fireworks display, Moral of the story,he was a bloody good shot with a keen eye. Yes good equipment is an advantage but at the end of the day it's the man behind the gun.
I need to find a club as my set ups ideal for recoiling hft. I have hw95 in 177 with hawke air Max 30 sf. Great scopes. Great gun.
Agreed. I have a hw99s in 177 and can hit a 2p sized target up to around 40 yds away. My mom can too and she's only been shooting with me around 3 times 😂👍
Nice one Rog 😉👍.....and the HFT masters being a laugh is an understatement lol, I've never met such a great bunch of likeminded folk 👌🇬🇧
But not just any gun would be legal to use in the competition so its would be nice to hear specifically a gun model.
Great video and advice Roger!
loved that advert said it how it is spot on no bull 😀
Great video Roger, love HFT, like you said there are many ways to start out, like me, I started with a £20 scope. It was a piece of rubbish, but sooner than later, I got a better one from a mate.
soooo, you push using PCP.....what about spring piston/break barrels rifles? how much fps do you need as a minimum to shoot the HFT? can you use a Pump Up pellet rifle like a Benjamin/Sheridan model 397?
Bought my HFT500 to use with HFT Absolutely brilliant rifle and doe the job perfectly! Best £900 i spent.
I Wana do Springer hft as that's all I own
What's with the pacifier on his neck?
Springer..
Gun share??
Watched a few videos, need to ask, what's with the dummy lol
Baby face Rog
Give me one of your guns or I’m showing this to your misses 😂
Why does he have a dummy around his neck?
+Michael One day he promises to explain. / Charlie
Can't we do HFT without taking it so seriously? What's wrong with a CO2 gun? Surely the fun is the gun and being able to test yourself without disappearing down a specialist equipment rabbit hole.
I agree. I've never used a CO2 I've always used springers so it's what I'm used to. If a CO2 works for your needs why not.
When I did some FTL it was in the early 80s . Used an Original 45 also owned a HW 35 and Webley Vulcan.
I feel these types of rifles represent what a person would use in the field.
Things move on I suppose.
Rangefinder!
Springer..
