worked on 5 last night for me. if you can use a shepherds whistle then these are easy. good starting point is if you can whistle using your fingers then your half way there. to deepen the tone you open your throat more. i lift the pitch tight throat. be warned, they do get a very fast response. we have had it a few times where i have put the lamp on after a short burst and there has been one sat there not 20 yards away.

ppu sp work ok in my 6.5. keep as a back up 120 speers did not group 140 speers grouped but have had two back ones. a muntjac where the bullet separated and then rattled around inside before coming back towards me. i didnt know until i skinned it to find the entry hole and exit hole on the same side of the beast. also a fallow where the bullet went into 3 good chunks and wrecked the whole carcass. i head shot a fallow at less than 20 feet. the bullet when though and then into the skin of the shoulder, did not enter the meat but knackered the shoulders. i will keep what i have for fox and then im trying 160gr sierra sp. after that. no idea lol.

What Eblag number?

As long as postage is the same for UK lol

I had 4 rifles on unrestricted, but they restricted the 6.5 for some strange reason. all now unrestricted with all other lawful quarry. the condition was a verbal one on the phone, I have had. as well as others, some very strange conversations with the manager. I think David has been contacted already by a member with time issues on land checks. Same manager. Neil you need to go shoot something first before you get pate.hehe.

I have a backpack high seat so not overly a problem, it just seamed very strage to me. there is no mention of it on the FAC

the land was checked when i first applied for 6.5x55 for stalking. i had to tie land to rifle and it was this patch in question. Land was checked, via goggle earth while talking to the PC who was checking land. he said he knew it well, as did I, so he was happy for me to shoot, but he was worried about opening it up for everyone with permission. he said then that he 'might' put the condition on. but it never was. i put in for a few changes on my FAC and one was opening up the 6.5. i had a call from the licencing manager,today, to say ticket was ready and just a reminder that on his paperwork it says 'highseat only' on this patch of land. it isnt a biggie really as i only shoot it a couple times a year, i wanted open for other areas i have stalking on. but i dont want to get it wrong. the licencing department arent worth the phone call as they phone other people to asked their advice on issues.lol.

bit of a strange one for me and im not sure on the take of it so asking I have a little patch of land that i stalk on with 6.5x55. its on a very good slope so well suited for walking and stalking. I have just had a phone call from firearms licencing to say my ticket is ready for collection and the 6.5x55 has been unrestricted, But! i was told that the patch of land is for high seat only. how do i stand on that, excuse the pun. I shot it last year stalking on foot but now told it was high seat only. When i spoke to the PC that checked the land a few years ago he was happy i knew what i was doing but was worried that one the land is open to 6.5x55 that it makes it open to anyone, even someone that might not be as competent as myself at assessing the safe shot. I was told by the PC that it 'might' be a condition added but there was no other talk of it until this phone call today from the licencing manager. I have an unrestricted FAC so what would your take be on this. I know what im thinking but i would like others input for the correct 'lawful' answer Phil

I need a phone to replace my wifes new phone that the dogs have just had a chomp on. If you can unlock and post for £200 i might get me clothes washed and food made.

If you all read the advert properly lmao Looks like he has posted on Gun Watch so it hits this forum as well. The seller of this gun doesn't appear to be a Pigeon Watch member, to contact them please use the details on Gun Watch.

Nick, hold it for me please. Ta Phil

Edited..

Clipped the bottom jaw, bullet frags leaving hair.

Thumbs up for Dauntsey from me to. Always enjoy a trip over there.

Its her eyes that have always drawn me.

You read my mind lol. thats just where it went

Get this month out the way and see what happens. I'm trying to knock the fallow back at the moment, not been done in a very long time, some right poor specimen crawling around at the moment. more looking and waiting rather that shooting. 1 in 4 trips at the moment. that would be the face on head shot, looks low but i wanted to take the brain on the way thought. downwards slope so bleeding out

ouch... Hope all get well some Our shoot cancelled yesterday as they weren't happy about the transport. make me glad it was cancelled now.

it was as if it was to happen the way it did. the pheasant shoot was cancelled just as i was about to leave the house but i said the farmer/keeper that i would still pop over and have a walk for a chance in the snow. i phoned Neil to say it was canceled but he was almost there. The drive was brown trousers in the snow but i was behind a low loader with a gert great tank on the back and a few wide load vans behind it. 60mph all the way. after i had shot the beast i went and got Neil from where he was waiting at the farm, he had done a good deed and dragged the poor postie out the snow, he had driven past 30 minutes before and didn't see the wire, he had no rifle with him, so it must have crossed after he passed. no idea why i looked where i did but i like to think it was fate. just made 3 loaves of liver pate so hope the gods are with me again as its my first try.

Would love to but your a busy man, so I haven't hassled. Im looking for 20lb of pork as I have a fallow hanging waiting to turn to burgers. any idea on prices? ATB Phil

We could not work out where it was from, the farmer thought, at first, it was his electric fence wire around the pens but a check showed it was all still there. Neil wound up a good 50 meters that was being dragged behind and there must have been 10 meters on the head and around the legs. It was very soft galv wire, no copper in it. my thoughts are is is the type one would use on a fruit cage to hold the netting up

I should have been doing other things today, but it was cancelled due to snow. I was ready to go and NJC was already over the farm, so I grabbed the 6.5 and drove over to the farm. not the nicest of drives but worth the effort. I was just driving down the lane to the farm when I noticed a wire bouncing across the road and then tighten. I stopped the truck to clear the road when i looked towards the other end of where the wire was going. on the end was a fallow buck looking rather worried. I grabbed the rifle off the floor and chambered a round. opened the window and dropped the Fallow with a head shot. not wanting to risk more harm or damage with the heart shot. I left the deer where I fell and went up to the farm to grab Neil, the land owner was there as well, so he also joined us. We could not work out where the wire was from or how long he had been dragging it all around. he is a little on the thin side, I don't know the larder weight yet but as soon as i can get him up on scales i will. Just a shame it wasn't a happy end to its life, but there was no way I was going to try and untangle this lot and try a release. I think the instant humane dispatch was the correct thing to do in this case. All the best Phil.
