That 125 yard shot on that video was amazing!  Great video. He doesn’t seem to do many videos these days which is a shame. If I’m ever out that way I’ll hit you up. My sister lives in Bunnythorpe so not too far away from you. I need to get up there and shoot her rabbits once my rifle is fixed.]]>

Someone on the shooting forum posted the same one. These will be my next springer purchase for sure.  FX are replacing my shroud btw. But who knows how long that’s going to take for the part to arrive as it will be on a shipment with other gun stuff.  So I’m back to watching a lot of YouTube again 😂]]>

I’ve just watched lots of videos on them and I really want one lol. Btw I see in your tag you have a YouTube link. Are you Richard Leonard from Air Arms TV? If so. You have great content I watch them all the time 🤙]]>
