Mat Manning is heading out to make a mixed bag. Geared up with his FX DRS MKII and Hawke Sidewinder combo, Mat is set for what could be some epic airgun shooting on a session that includes woodland grey squirrel control, rabbit hunting and even the chance of some magpie shooting.

Mat also has the Weihrauch HW57 on test. This awesome fixed-barrel underlever spring airgun shares the DNA of the famous Weihrauch HW77 but is lighter and more affordable. Our review includes accuracy and power testing and a run through all the key features of the Weihrauch HW57.
