Webley Tomahawk .22

bam 26-2 .22
Received it from Bestairgun a week ago and been playing around with it for a while. It is a beautiful gun and absolutely worth having but my plan was to sell it on after I've tried it out.
I have to stick with the plan to keep the better half happy, she has a thing about having more guns then you can shoot..
Handbags and shoes is obviously not the same as guns:)
I did a chrony test when I first got it but after a bit of shooting, it settled down a bit, today it reached 740fts with 14.3gr RWS which is 17.39 fpe.
This is more then I expected but I'm not complaining.
The recoil is pleasant and with the beautiful stock it is a pleasure to shoot with.
Precision in this rifle is far better then what I can achive, I shot a half inch group at 30 yards in windy conditions.
With a stock built like this you do need high mounts,so I ordered the combo through bestairgun at $199 and got a Xisco 4x32AO scope with high mounts.
I'd have to say the package is good value for money and the scope is ok at that price.

FX Storm .22
Received this one today, it was a trade for som car stereo equipment I had stored away.
It was scoped with a Tasco 6-24x42 and fitted with an silencer, I know I know, fully legal here though:)
The gun has 8 shot mag and room in the stock for 2 spare mags, there is also a pressure gauge and 3 power levels available.
Also a FX pump in the package as well as some pellets, crappy ones though so guess they'll end up as 9mm bullets for my Career.
First things first, after unpacking I oiled it down and pulled through a few times, scope was mounted a tad skew but have to try the new toy first and I ran out of patience:)
Shot a few mags just getting the feel of it and I must say the cocking is REALLY different and takes some getting used to, on instinct I want to pull the rifle tight to my shoulder but with this gun that will only result in putting another pellet in the barrel.
However it only took a couple mags before I was aquinted with it and really found it a pleasure to cock, it's almost too easy and FX says a mag can be fired in about 3 seconds, I do not doubt that.
The feel of the gun is also solid and a pleasure to hold with a light weight at 2.7kg or 5.9lbs, almost too light for my taste but for those hunting it'd be perfect.
I've not done a proper shot string yet but I pushed a 21gr Barracuda through the chrony after shooting a serie and it was doing just over 30ft.lbs or around 42J, factory says it gets 30 shots per fill on full power.
So power is respectable but what about accuracy?
After a quick sight in I shot 5 shots at 50 yards with the result you see above, definitly acceptable:)
