I think mine is a "Webley" Mick with a cheap scope on it. It's a great rat killer at up to 10 metres or so. They really squeal when they take one too. They don't like it up em. It'll take out small rabbits at around 15 metres.
If you've got rats get an air rifle. Although I obviously have not got rats anymore.
Pffffffftttttt.

I really didn't want to look. I risked one eye first. Phew.
Glad to see the council are looking into it.

Mick, if you ask 100 air gunners which rifle to go with, you will get 100 different answers but I have 4 Weihrauchs, 3 rifles and 1 pistol (also a Webley pistol) and love the way they are made and the accuracy. You also won't go far wrong with Air Arms.

I bought my last gun from Perkins Gun Shop (online) and found the cheapest HW97 ss (scoped too). It was even worth it after them posting it to my local gun shop £30 and £25 to the local shop for receiving it.  :thumb:

I hope this is of some help. One more thing, it's easy to get addicted to air guns and end up with many more than you need, which is only one.  :whistle:

V-Strom specific discussion / Re: 800RE Screen enfanglement

I put 20mm spacers at the bottom of my screen to angle the top in towards me a bit more. Standard 800RE screen, highest setting. Made quite an improvement to buffeting for just a few quid.

Perhaps I'm odd but I don't want a completely still airflow behind the screen. It might be down to me being so used to naked bikes but without air getting into my helmet vents I get too hot...

Yes, did this myself, snorkels off but I also removed that 'fishtank' foam pre-filter which sits above the paper air filter (can only assume that foam's there for noise, can't possibly serve a useful purpose).

Sounds a lot better even if she runs a miniscule amount leaner.
