OK.... I tried several brands of ammo over the past couple of days. The CCI Green Tag shot more consistently than the old RWS I had tried earlier. Yes, I noticed that the CCI cases required some pressure to chamber, but I did not experience any issues with extraction. The Eley sport did not perform ...

I use Eley Target Pistol for practice and Eley Pistol Match. Good call. I visited my favorite gun shop late Monday afternoon to look for different types of ammo to try out. I couldn't find any Eley Target or Match, but I found some Eley Sport. I'll try some of that this afternoon. The owner of the ...

May I ask why do you shoot the little animals ? Do you eat them after you kill them? :( I sense ethical judgment; I wasn't expecting that. In most cases, the flesh of the little (and big) animals I shoot become food for myself or for other living creatures. The only exceptions I can think of are ra...

I'd appreciate some ammunition recommendations for my Hammerli 162. I tried RWS Dynamit Noble 22LR standard velocity target ammo, but that did not shoot particularly well in my pistol.

After reading some other older postings, I decided to inspect the solenoid. The small striker pin seemed a bit sluggish. I was initially hesitant to disassemble the pistol but, after studying the exploded diagram in the manual, I decided to give it a try. I removed the grip and part of the grip fram...

I purchased a Hammerli 162 FP in 1997, immediately shot 50 rounds through it to test it for function, removed the batteries, put it in my safe for storage and promptly forgot about it. I recently decided I'd take it out of the safe and shoot it some. I found, however, that the pistol would no longer...
