Napier Power Pellet Lube

Many airgunners realise the benefits of ‘lubing’ pellets as it not only helps them perform to their optimum level of efficiency when travelling up the barrel but also prevents them from oxidising should you irregularly leave the lid off your pellets or while they are in a pellet pouch. Power Pellet lube is available in a 25ml Pump Aerosol that helps you distribute the lube ‘evenly’ over ammo.

Price: SRP£8.60

See Thru’ Scope Mounts

See-through scope mounts allow a scope to be fitted but with access to the iron sights giving the best of both worlds. Manufactured from aircraft grade aluminium the HST46C 2-Piece Mounts from Sportsmatch UK have an elongated section machined out of their bases so you can look under the scope and clearly sight in on the target using the rifle’s ‘irons.’ However they only cater for scopes with 40mm objective lens housings as anything larger obscures your view.

The MTC 3 X 12 X 32WA Viper Connect Scope quickly became a favourite due to its wide field of view and depth of field. However it requires a re-think as eye relief is near zero. MTC has now developed a dedicated mount. Manufactured from aircraft-grade aluminium, the black anodised one-piece design retains the same width for the double screw front and single strap rear rings. The top cradle on the front ring has a 30mm Weaver/ Picatinny rail for lights or lasers.
