Airgun Shooter Magazine September 2015 Back Issue

With September looming, we always get that ‘back to school’ feeling, but when it comes to airgunning, it’s rather exciting because the days are getting noticeably shorter, meaning after-dark shooting is back on the cards! So this issue Mat Manning takes you on a rabbit hunt with the Yukon Photon XT night vision unit, just to whet your appetite.

New challenges present themselves as we move towards autumn – but Pete Wadeson suggests some kit to get things in your favour at this very fruitful time of the airgun hunting year. We also round up a dozen corvid attractors for outwitting the crafty birds on your patch, so make sure you check them out! And if you want to know why, of all people, Ian Barnett considers himself as a ‘vermin keeper’, then head to page 20!

On the gun front, we have a limited edition BSA Scorpion RS Platinum on test this month – number 001 of 150, no less! And Fred Eves delivers his second instalment on the unusual Benjamin pneumatics. We take a first look at the Compatto, the soon-to-be-released new compact PCP multi-shot from Brocock.

And of course you’ll also find all the regular features, plus news of a new airgun insurance scheme; a springer efficiency formula; a 5-20x50 scope comparison; a competition… you won’t want to put your magazine down!
