Apologies for any confusion, i am in England were we have a 12ftlb limit on air rifles, anything over that requires a FAC Fire Arms Certificate.

Its been nearly 40 years since I last owned and fired my Relum Tornado in .22.

It was to my mind, as good air rifle, it was the deluxe version with a beautifully grained woodstock.

Now after all these years, I have reached the point of wanting to restart shooting. With my original Relum Tornado shooting rabbits with absolutely no problem and having clean kills, the range was typically back garden distance on an old farm.

Things have changed a lot with Air Rifles, with Co2, gas ram, pcp etc.

I like the look of the SMK XS38, it reminds me of my old Tornado. Now in my defence i have tried the SMK XS78, that uses Co2, it felt nice enough but I didn't fancy buying into the Co2, with added extra cost of having to buy extra bulbs.

So any recommendations or pointers, I would prefer 2nd hand to save costs

Hit me with your opinions and budgets.

Thanks .

Been to 5 bbqs this month, and without exception, each one has served up potato salad that looks to be made from cuckoo spit, horrible little foam sauce. I havnt had potato salad for around 11 or 12 years, and was surprised at how bad it had turned in to.

So, anyone got some recipes for quick and simple make my own, or recommend somewhere that sells the good stuff?

Many thanks
