Things I liked: I like the screw on lid container. All pellets in tin are in great shape and are uniform in size. The accuracy to 50 yards is the same as the JSB Exact Kings in my Syn Rod. They also expand upon impact and the nose of the pellet opens up and forms a cup. These are great for smashing nutters.
Things I would have changed: 350 pellets in a container would be nice.
What others should know: They are a great alternative to the JSB Exact Kings. I have tested them to 50 yards and they have the same exact POI as the JSB Kings.
When oiling pellets for a PCP what type of oil is used and is it readily available?
According to Tom Gaylord: Whiscombe Honey is a mixture of two-thirds Hoppes Gun Oil (not Number 9 bore cleaner!) and one-third STP Engine Treatment, by volume. Shake the mixture until is takes on a light yellow color. It will look like thin honey, hence the name. This mixture should not detonate easily in a spring gun.

Dehydrated cane juice isn't a euphemism, it is the name of the ingredient.
I could have also listed the ingredient by its name, sucanat, which would have been my preference. There is a full description of the product, including its nutritive benefits over refined sugar, on the producer's website:
However, the name is a registered trademark of the producer, and I didn't wish to risk infringement by its unauthorized use. It is not 'brown sugar', a term which I'm sure you know describes granulated sugar that has had a portion of the molasses added back to it after being refined.
There was no deception, nor attempt to hide the fact that the ketchup is sweetened and contains sugar, intended in the choice of term. In retrospect I might have chosen 'whole cane sugar' instead, as it is my objective to focus on what something is… not what it isn't.
Also, the sugar came from cane grown in Brazil. If anyone out there in the interwebs is feeling helpful and knows a place to find dehydrated cane juice made from Florida cane in our fair city, please share.
Seth Freedman
PS- Also Sylvar, props on 'pillory' that's vocab you don't bump up against on a daily basis. If you care to deride me more directly: my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com. Additionally, it is neither my concern, nor do I wish to know, what manner of undergarments people choose to wear while enjoying the products I make.

Retailers report weak sales gains
By ANNE D'INNOCENZIO
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Black Friday was no match for Sandy.
Major retailers from Target to Macy's reported weak November sales as the strong start to the holiday shopping season — including a good showing on the day after Thanksgiving — wasn't enough to fully offset the damage caused by Superstorm Sandy earlier in the month.
The storm stunted enthusiasm among shoppers during the first couple of weeks of November just as stores were preparing for the busiest shopping period of the year, a roughly two-month stretch at the end of the year when they can make up to 40 percent of their annual revenue.
"It really took away the punchbowl for retailers and put them behind the eight ball heading into the crucial weekend," said Ken Perkins, president of RetailMetrics, a research firm
Eighteen retailers on Thursday reported that November sales at stores open at least a year — an indicator of a retailer's health — through last Saturday were up 1.7 percent compared with the year-ago period, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers. That's well below the group's anticipated forecast for a 4.5 percent to 5.5 percent gain.
Only a small group of stores representing about 13 percent of the $2.4 trillion U.S. retail industry report monthly revenue, and the list excludes big merchants such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's biggest retailer. But the data still offers a snapshot of consumer spending, which accounts for 70 percent of all economic activity.
November sales show that stores were challenged by the impact of Sandy, which hit the Northeast on Oct. 29 and disrupted business activity and households for several days. MasterCard Advisors' SpendingPulse, which tracks spending, said that Sandy knocked off nearly $4 billion in retail sales during the first week in November in the hard-hit Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions, which accounts for 24 percent of retail sales nationwide.
The disappointing November sales come after robust sales over the Thanksgiving weekend, the official kickoff to the holiday shopping season.
A record 247 million shoppers visited stores and websites over the four-day period that started on Thanksgiving this year, up 9.2 percent of last year, according to a survey of 4,000 shoppers that was conducted by research firm BIGinsight for The National Retail Federation trade group. Spending over the four-day weekend totaled $59.1 billion, up 12.8 percent from 2011.
November sales affirm that this holiday season could be a difficult one for stores even as Americans' confidence is at the highest level since February 2008. Overall, the retail federation estimates that overall sales in November and December will rise 4.1 percent this year to $586.1 billion. But that's more than a percentage point lower than the growth in each of the past two years, and the smallest increase since 2009, when sales were nearly flat.
The modest forecast comes as U.S. shoppers face economic uncertainty. After all, many Americans are still concerned about the weak job market. And they worry whether Congress will be able to head off tax increases and spending cuts before the U.S. reaches the "fiscal cliff" in January. If Congress doesn't reach a deal, it would mean less money in Americans' paychecks.
Donna Herndon, who lives in El Paso, Tex., is closely watching her spending over the next couple of months. As a result, she said she'll probably spend $300 less than last year on her holiday buying.
"I don't want the first day of the year to come, and 'oh, my goodness,' I don't have the extra money to pay credit card bills," Herndon said. "I watch my money a lot more than past years, and I wait for it to go on sale."
Michael P. Niemira, chief economist at the International Council of Shopping Centers trade group, said he's still sticking with his forecast for a 3 percent increase in sales for the holiday season. Originally, Niemira had expected November would be stronger than December, but now he anticipates the trend will be flipped.
"It's a very challenging season given the hurricane effects," Niemira said. "You're counting on a very strong finish."
Kohl's Corp. is banking on strong finish. Kohl's revenue at stores open at least a year fell 5.6 percent in November. That was well below the 1.9 percent rise anticipated by analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters. The weakest regions were the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, which were impacted by Superstorm Sandy, but Kohl's said all regions reported negative sales for the month.
Kevin Mansell, Kohl's CEO noted that results improved over Thanksgiving week and that Black Friday-related sales seemed to shift to online. Online sales for Thanksgiving week rose more than 50 percent, but most of these sales will be reported with December results, Mansell said.
Meanwhile, department store chains Macy's and Nordstrom Inc. reported their first monthly sales drop since late 2009 when the U.S. economy was just coming out of the Great Recession.
Nordstrom recorded a 1.1 percent decline in November, blaming the weakness not only on Sandy but also on tepid customer response to its semi-annual sales in the first half of the month. Nordstrom also said customers continue to prefer fashion and newness over bargains, which has made its clearance sales less enticing. The November figure was the first decline since September 2009 when it had a 2.4 percent drop.
Macy's revenue at stores open at least a year fell 0.7 percent in November, compared with the 1.5 percent increase analyst expected. It was Macy's first monthly sales drop since November 2009 when it recorded a 6.1 percent decline.
"Despite the largest-volume Thanksgiving weekend in our company's history, we were not able to overcome the weak start to the month, which included the disruption of Hurricane Sandy," said Terry J. Lundgren, Macy's CEO.
Perhaps most surprisingly, Target reported that revenue at stores opened at least a year fell 1 percent, well below the 2.1 percent increase that Wall Street was anticipating.
Target said weak sales early in the month offset stronger sales later on. The South was its strongest region, while the Northeast, hard hit by Sandy, was weaker. Still, it said during a pre-recorded conference call that its profitability for the month remained "on plan."
Analysts were puzzled by Target's disappointing sales performance in November. Earlier this month, the no. 2 discounter behind Wal-Mart had issued a profit outlook for the holiday quarter that beat analysts' estimates. The chain also opened its doors at 9 p.m. on Thanksgiving, three hours earlier than a year ago.
Overall, given a tough spending climate, "not everyone is going to win," said Brian Sozzi, chief equities analyst at NBG Productions.

Alexander Gustafsson knows what he wants next. He also knows what he thinks is likely to happen next for him.
But in case he's wrong, he doesn't plan on having any indecision about what he'll do in the near future.
Gustafsson (16-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) is supposed to be next in line for the light heavyweight title, meeting the winner of champion Jon Jones (19-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC) and Glover Teixeira (22-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) after their April fight. But hey, what if Jones loses the title in a close fight? The UFC has been known to order up rematches in the past.
So what would Gustafsson do in that case, if suddenly his next-in-line status was pushed back a bit?
"I'd probably fight someone else, then," Gustafsson on Tuesday told MMAjunkie Radio. "I'm a fighter and I want to fight. Basically, if Jones beats Teixeira, I want that title shot right away. If he doesn't win (and they give him a rematch), then I'll have to look at other possibilities. But I'm fighting whoever they gave me. That's just the way I am."
Jones and Teixeira headline UFC 172 on April 26 at Baltimore Arena. The champ is a heavy favorite to defend his belt a seventh time.
Gustafsson earlier this month cemented his shot at a rematch with Jones by becoming the first fighter to take out England's Jimi Manuwa. The tall Swede knocked Manuwa out at UFC Fight Night 37 in London. After the fight, UFC President Dana White said Gustafsson was locked in for his title shot.
"If Jones wins, we have a nasty rematch," White said. "If he doesn't, then it's [Gustafsson] and Glover Teixeira."
Unless, of course, the Jones-Teixeira rematch possibility were to take hold. But that's not something Gustafsson believes will happen.
"I think Jones is going to win the fight by decision," he said. "Glover is a great fighter and a very tough fighter. Jones has to respect his power – he's a dangerous fighter with a knockout chance. But Jones has too many tools for Glover, and I don't think Glover is fast enough for Jones. He's the type of fighter that fits Jones very well."
The fight with Jones is something Gustafsson has been wanting to play back since this past September, when he dropped a decision to him at UFC 165. It was a fight that many observers thought should have gone Gustafsson's way. It also was a fight that put Jones and Gustafsson in the hospital afterward – though Jones was much worse for the wear.
"It took me a while, actually, to get over it," Gustafsson said. "The physical part of it was very easy. I wasn't that banged up. I was back in training after two weeks. But it was the mental things, the motivation, and I was so disappointed over everything. So it took a while. But when I heard I was fighting Jimi Manuwa, I knew I had to let the past go and get 100 percent focused on Manuwa. I knew that guy was very dangerous and hits very hard. So I just let the past go and saw my next challenge."
With Manuwa now in the rearview mirror, he's looking ahead to Jones, he hopes. And he acknowledges that the champ is "the best guy out there."
But Gustafsson, whose only loss the past four years or so is to Jones, wonders if the titleholder wants much to do with him in a rematch. If he doesn't, Gustafsson believes there's not really another good option.
"In my mind, Jones is doing everything he can to not fight me. He doesn't want to fight me," he said. "So I think he's trying to mix things up. But the only fight that makes sense for me right now is if he wins against Teixeira, is me fighting him."

Danger of bringing up 'a little princess': Top head teacher warns parents who constantly praise daughters risk raising girls who 'can't handle failure'
- Nicole Chapman, head of leading girls' grammar school, says some families treat daughters as if they 'can do no wrong'
- 'Being constantly praised is not necessarily a good thing,' she says
- Creates girls who won't take risks because they are are afraid of failure
Warning: Headteacher Nicole Chapman says some parents praise their daughters too much
Parents are turning their daughters into 'little princesses' who can't take criticism, the head teacher of a leading girls' grammar school warned yesterday.
Nicole Chapman said some families treat daughters as if they 'can do no wrong' and constantly shower them with praise and presents,
As a result, many lack the 'resilience' to deal with failure or criticism, she said.
Mrs Chapman, who is head of one of the best selective schools in the country, spoke out ahead of a conference at her school in Chelmsford, Essex - attended by parents and other school leaders - about educating teenage girls.
'What I try to address with my parents here is the concept of what we call the little princess, which is one where a child, once she's satisfied her parents' ambitions to get into the school, she can do no wrong,' she said,
'She's constantly praised - and that is not necessarily a good thing.'
Mrs Chapman, who has a grown-up son, said that 'the little princess' always wants to please and gets 'a lot of rewards' for her troubles.
She said: 'For some of them it's just praise, but with others they can have more or less what they want.
'Their parents shower them with presents.'
She said some parents 'never exposed' their daughters to any negative feedback.
This made girls into 'perfectionists' who would not take risks in case they failed.
Instead of excessive praise, she said, parents should ensure their daughters were 'strong individuals' who could cope with failure and grow up to be leaders.
'Our girls are bright and therefore, they will be leaders,' she said.
'As a leader, you're not a princess. As a leader, you've got to have strength, belief, resilience.
'You have to have the right principles - you must be principled, but you must have knowledge.
'All those things don't necessarily go with being a princess because a princess is a bit fragile.
'A princess receives information, learns it, regurgitates it, but never gets truly challenged.'
'Perfectionists': Mrs Chapman said some parents have 'never exposed' their daughters to risk meaning they are afraid of failure (file photo)
Mrs Chapman is head of the 900-pupil Chelmsford County High School for Girls, where 88 per cent of pupils pass their GCSEs with As or A*s last summer.
Her comments were echoed by Dr JoAnn Deak, author of Girls Will Be Girls: Raising Confident and Courageous Daughters.
Speaking at the conference yesterday, she said many parents 'tend to go overboard on praise', making girls 'feel precious' and that they're 'the centre of the universe'.
Praise should be 'specific and earned' instead, she said.
Referring to daughters, the American psychologist said: 'As a parent, you'll obviously offer general praise to her sometimes, but if you do it too often, your opinion will not be valued.
'Remember too, that the more she focuses on self, the more selfish she will become; whereas the more she focuses on doing and on others, the more she will increase her self esteem.'
Conference: The comments by Mrs Chapman came ahead of a conference at her school in Chelmsford, Essex, about educating teenage girls
Earlier this month a leading psychologist warned that praising children with phrases such as 'well done darling' could damage their confidence.
Stephen Grosz says 'empty praise' such as 'you're so clever' or 'you're such an artist' could cause children to be unhappy as they feel they cannot live up to the false expectations, and can even hinder their progress at school.
Mr Grosz - who has practised as a psychoanalyst, a type of psychologist, for 25 years - cites research showing that children who were heavily praised were likely to perform worse in maths problems and even tended to lie about their results.
Instead he advises parents and teachers to bestow compliments less frequently and use phrases that congratulate children for 'trying really hard'.

Dr Rip's Essential Beach Book: Everything You Need to Know About Surf, Sand and Rips (Paperback)Rob Brander
Paperback Published: 01/10/2010
- Can be ordered from our supplier
Many of us live near the beach, and many more visit the beach on holidays. But just how much do we understand about the beach and its potential hazards? The types of waves and the way they break, tides and their currents, dangerous rips and how to spot them, and why some beaches are safer than others? Every year tens of thousands of people need to be rescued from the ocean because beach-goers don't possess basic beach safety knowledge and skills. The Essential Beach Book by Dr Rob Brander (aka Dr Rip), a surf-lifesaver and scientist who studies beaches, rips and currents, is a simple, entertaining and useful guide to beach safety, with a solid scientific basis. He explains how beaches form, what drives waves and how rips develop, and offers practical advice to show you how to get the most out of your day at the beach-without risking your life. To view Dr Brander's award winning video on science and the surf see his website Find Dr Rip on Facebook

Sheffield United can heap more misery on Fulham on Sunday as the League One side seek a second consecutive FA Cup giant-killing.
Nigel Clough's men stunned Premier League side Aston Villa in the third round, earning a 2-1 win at Villa Park thanks to goals from Jamie Murphy and Ryan Flynn.
That result has done little to boost United's league form, though, and they sit just outside the relegation places in 20th place after winning just one of their last six.
However, the Yorkshire club face another out-of form side in Fulham, who are just a point above the drop zone in the Premier League following a 4-1 loss to Sunderland a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.
Rene Meulensteen's men needed a replay against Norwich last week to secure a place in the fourth round, but the Dutchman will have been pleased with his side's performance in that clash, which ended in a comfortable 3-0 victory at Craven Cottage.
The London outfit will be expected to replicate that display against their third-tier opposition and seal a first win at Bramall Lane since 1985.
Defender Fernando Amorebieta is Fulham's only absentee for the game, with the Venezuela international unavailable because of a knee injury.
United, by contrast, have a number of players ineligible as midfielders Elliot Whitehouse and Callum McFadzean, as well as striker Billy Paynter, all miss out.
However, Clough's squad has been boosted by the arrivals of defender John Brayford and attacking midfielder Stefan Scougall, who joined on Friday from Cardiff City and Livingston respectively.
Former Derby boss Clough believes United can spring a second successive upset, but accepts that the odds are against them.
"There's no reason why we can't (cause another upset), but it will be a little more difficult this time," Clough told the Sheffield Star.
"We've got to remember they're two divisions above us and the quality they have throughout their squad of 25."

Weavers is a peer-to-peer model supporting carers to address the significant challenges of caring for a loved one. The model is currently undergoing trial in South Australia
Caring for our ageing population is one of the greatest challenges facing our society; many carers bear a hidden burden that is detrimental to their wellbeing and can lead to burnout. Three in five people will care for an ageing spouse, parent, friend or relative. Carers have the lowest wellbeing of any population subgroup. One-third of the 2.6 million Australians in unpaid caring roles have 'severe' or 'extremely severe' depression and 90% of carers don't access Commonwealth Respite and Support Services. In fact the vast majority of Australians in caring roles are not registered for carer support. They don't identify as a carer: it's just what they do for a loved one.
Weavers is a new peer-to-peer model supporting carers to address the significant challenges of caring for a loved one. Weavers are people with lived caring experience; they truly understand what it's like, and are trained to use this know-how to support carers in their local community. The model was co-designed with carers and tested over six months. TACSI is currently running a larger scale demonstration and evaluation of Weavers in northern Adelaide over a 12 month period.
People with personal caring experience are recruited, trained, and connected with carers in their community, helping them:
Underpinning the match between a Weaver and carer is a model of support that creates long-term behaviour change, using narrative therapy techniques, setting goals and adopting new ways to manage the caring journey.
Weavers use a set of tools designed to guide carers through an 'adaptive caring loop' – acknowledging each problem and its effects, identifying ways to address the problem, supporting the carer to try out these new methods, and reflecting on the outcome. The aim is to equip carers with tools and ways of looking at problems that create a sense of control and enable them to adapt to the growing needs of their loved one.
The Local Connector, a professional role, supports Weaver volunteers, sets up the match between a Weaver and carer and monitors progress of support provided. The Local Connector also runs regular get togethers over a meal to provide Weavers support and an opportunity to debrief.
The idea emerged from spending time with over 100 people in caring relationships in Unley and Salisbury in 2011. We found that many people were struggling with their caring role and facing a number of challenges. Yet there were also many people who had navigated these struggles and were managing well. Weavers aims to connect these two groups and in doing so reduce the stress of caring.
Following the prototyping phase, The National Health and Medical Research Council, Helping Hand, and Southern Cross Care have provided funding and support for a larger scale trial of the program to develop it further and create an evidence base.
