Good luck with napier and hastings.
Crafties no. Ranges to river no. ( Has ftt now)
Gun city no Napier no. Hunting and fishing possible. Did pick up rws from there. But no jsb at that time.
I will gun city to get some in when i send the wiehrach to its new owner. But this time ill take photos of the pellet tins as last time they had no idea of aa and jsb pellets.
Took all might last time to not tell the lady he was selling pellets too, that he was full of shyt and had no idea about he was talking about.
Honestly the crap he came up with was truly shocking to sell.

Ok....

Well after careful consideration and not taking anyone's advice apparently, I've probably bought the wrong gun.

I've ended up getting a 2nd hand Weihrauch HW97KT .177. It was on Trademe if anyone happened to have spotted it. Everything except the rests and scope for $995

They're a great airgun - possibly the best. You should be very happy with it.

Based on the price range you were indicating, no one (other than Myson) bothered suggesting the Weihrauchs. Had pricing not been too much of an issue then pretty much all of us would have.

Absolutely spot on.

Get rid of some pests and settle into some very accurate target sessions.

Our local club members regularly shoot sub 1/2 inch groups at 25 yards with Weihrauch Air Rifles.

There are several HW97 users who can front with the best pre-charged owners.

Most recently:

25 yards 4 pellets through same hole HW97.
