I totally agree. They should have pixelated the foxes faces. 

👍

The only thing with base mag that high is the 75mm Senopex that Blackwoods are flogging, but its a big hunking heavy thing and as its not a well known brand which will effect how easy it is to move on when you want rid at some point. Anything else will be using digital mag to get to 8x mag or more which equals pixilation to one degree or another. Having said that, those scopes are all still plenty capable of shooting foxes to 250+ yards assuming you're confident about I.D. etc.

I would be looking at both 384 and 612 sensor units; T-Ceptor 55-3, 55-6, Infiray RL42, HIK Thunder/Panther, Trail/Thermion XP - depending on budget and what to you personally gives the best image at the mag you're likely to shoot with most, from experience peoples preferences can vary wildly - of the aforementioned scopes you will find someone will think its the best of them, whilst the chap next to him thinks its the worst! 

Price-aside, its about the best thermal scope in the UK at the mo. HIK TQ50 is close for less cash.

Really cant stress enough that you try before you buy, especially when deciding between brands as some give very different pictures in spite of having basically the same spec on paper e.g. anything Pulsar v anything Infiray.

Probably location missing from profile?

Me neither with V4, but I was done for 1 of 2 V2s and one or both V3s previously /shrug

Pot luck, get the impression most who've had their V4s haven't been caught by import/VAT on clearing customs. If unlucky, ((cost+shipping) x1.05 ) x 1.2 should about cover it.

could anybody please tell me who is the importer for weihrauch centre fire rifles I have looked on hull cartridge but can only find air rifles.

Hull also import the powder burners, my 17H went back to them.

I have V3 and V4 next to each other, the V4 is definitely nicer swapping between powders, but I've yet to get the V4 to throw as fast as the V3, just because you can tweak the V3 Autothrow to dump very close your target charge weight. Early days as I've not used them side by side much but I wouldn't be disappointed if I had a V3 that's for sure.

As I said, if the circumstances (inc location) are right. There was a 1200ish yard plinking/prs training type thing operating about 15 mins down the road from me (until he fell out with the land owner recently), he was charging £475 a day 1 to 1, with additional shooters at 75 quid a pop - and I know people were paying it ;s

Silverstone are doing ok I assume, as they're building a load more ranges.

Pretty sure silverstone scrapped that system very quickly as take up wasn't great.

Nope, https://www.silverstoneshootingcentre.co.uk/shop/membership-renewal/, that's the current costs - people will pay it and more if it fits them. Same with the £35/hour mentioned above - plenty of people will pay that and more if the circumstances are right and their wallet permits.

is this an over the barrel type? or does its screw on the barrel end?

WC Evolutions are over barrel mods, the threaded part is roughly just behind the screw you can see in the top pic.

Mines still in the box on the kitchen floor where it’s been since it was delivered.

You don’t sound blown away, John? Though I doubt any of us was expecting something earth shatteringly different from v3?

I couldn't be bothered to look as I'd never heard of it.

Completely your prerogative of course, and why someone else has bought it. My profile about 1” < that way also says West Berks :)

Have you not heard of a brilliant website called ‘Google Maps’? It really does come in handy sometimes… 😂

Sssshhhh 😇

Sold subject to usual anyways...ta!

Mines showing as due Monday as well, but was at Stanstead @ 11pm yesterday, so may still attract duty/vat; I've had 4 Autotricklers from Adam and been stung every time so not expecting to clear HMRC without a bill, but there's always a first time I guess 🤞

PM me Ruger.

@NID - if Rugers a no go for some reason, I could do Bisley, I'm just off J13 M4, so not a million miles away...

Anyone got theirs yet? first impressions?

Mines meant to arrive next week but imagine a few will have had them already?

Anyone using H1000 still?

I have 4lbs that I was going to put through a SAUM, but never did due to being led a merry little dance by a gun plumber.

RRP probably £50-55/lb, say £30/lb? £100 for the lot.

Collection RG20 or don't mind meeting within a reasonable distance.

Yes, I realise that, I would start at the faster end, RS52.

I'm running 130ttsx in my 308W with N530 (as I use it for my 20 cal) - Viht list N130/133/530/135/140 for 130gr TSX; about 3000fps, 100m group size is comfortably half MOA. My barrel is a standard slow twist, 1:11 or 1:12.

Mk 1 Recon, Crusader and Terminator are all 40mm.

This setup works for me . I upgraded the rcbs trickler to an electric dandy one from the US . Nice and simple can do powder load and seat a bullet every 40 seconds or so . Bulk load from a rcbs basic thrower set to about half a grain low. 

If I'm loading literally a few rounds for some reason I do this, just throw with a cheapo Lee thrower and then an RCBS trickler or fingers 😜

More than that its Autothrow/trickler, which will turn a primed case into a loaded round in something like 15ish seconds, 20 at a push.

If you don't have any luck, I'd try selling the mount separately - check out the price of a new 008 with a cheap but decent laser illuminator and years warranty from Blackwoods.

V2-V3 upgrade sold to Locknload pending cash - sorry Tim, have checked back through this thread and inbox box messages to see who first messaged to say theyd buy and Lock pipped you - I may still have some other bits floating about as I'm sure I bought 2x upgrade kits but thats tbc...

Sorry for not getting back to people, to-ing and fro-ing the last week!

Assuming he still wants it, V3 kit sold to rwadw545.

Have attached pic of V2->V3 upgrade kit. Its missing the cup that's actually used for the powder, but any small vessel/pan will do.
