  1. 4 - three with a round action, 1 with a Hilux. Total 461
  2. Flighting a large pond this morning when something made me turn around (I don't recall hearing anything) to see an otter slipping very quietly into the water. He came up once to check me out and then I didn't see him again. Some minutes later three, otherwise happy, mallard were flushed from the far end of the pond and I bagged one. GBS IMG_2329.HEIC
  3. My Father's gun - 28" barrels, engraved action, double trigger, SLEEVED, SxS Ejector, RH. £250 ONO I don't have pictures to hand but please PM for more details. Location - near Marlborough until Christmas then Scottish Borders after. Any questions, please ask. GBS
  4. Solved - turns out the female connectors had come loose within the car side socket. TY for all suggestions. GBS
  5. I’ll try but strange that it happens with two different adaptors. Both were happily taking to each other a week ago. Non LED lights. No alarm in the cab….
  6. My ifor horsebox isn’t talking to the hilux. The ifor has a 7 pin connector and the hilux a 13 pin so we have an adaptor in the middle. No lights are coming on on the ifor but the adaptor is making the hilux indicator double tick (as it always has done) until the ‘box is connected. I’ve changed the adaptor but no joy. Am I correct in thinking that if the hilux is responding to the adaptor then the fault lies with the ifor rather than the hilux? All help greatly appreciated! GBS
  7. I will be about 8 miles south of Forres and heading up the A9 on Friday afternoon.
  8. I'm amazed that I am re-posting this as its all still here a year later. It's almost worth buying a 16 just to get through the cartridges! If you are reading this then you are a man (or woman) of taste and a follower of the finest calibre. Sadly, both of my 16s have now gone so I have the following for sale: 250 x Express Special Sixteen 30g 6 Fibre PLUS 130 x Express Supreme Game 28g 5&6s Fibre all dry stored and in good condition - (£376/1000 on JustCartridges) 25 Bismuth 26.5g 5s Fibre - (£43 on JC) 16g Bisley leather hand guard £100 for the lot, Scot Borders (Westruther), must produce SGC. GBS I will be in Moray this weekend, Selkirk weekly, Wiltshire at Christmas and Northants on Boxing Day if this helps anyone.

  12. See my previous message quoted above. This BLE is 70mm proofed and i've altered the chokes so it can use standard steel to take the pressure off (pun intended!) the Round Action. GBS
