  1. taken this morning from my high seat,I dont usually take a camera with me but I was feeling lucky.shouldnt have bloody bothered as all I saw was squirrels,hares and pigeons,should have taken my better camera to catch a woodpecker at work. was a nice morning even though I didnt get one but my mate did
  2. no it isnt one has to know when and why when shooting deer
  3. what ?? didnt you post this "I think you will struggle I have never known any one to get an open ticket at the first attempt" I got mine first attempt and you say you got yours first attempt,or am I missing something by the way you didnt reply to my comment having met you
  4. got one with in 6 months of my first application
  5. its called "culling" mate,another one that wont be eating the farmers crops,better to take the youngster than the mother and let it starve
  6. well we have all been young once but was unable to do things we wanted,if it helps the lad and fires up his interest its worth the effort.
  7. Pothunter I like your enthusiasm,so if you have the land I will offer a couple of my rifles for you to have a go with,under my supervision of course PM me if your interested
  8. Hi just a couple of questions,how far is the full bore out too and how many targets aslo the simulated stalk how many targets and how is it scored
  9. you are not allowed to lens or borrow anyone a firearm,I think you have to be 17 to have an FAC,if you know someone with an FAC they may allow your son to have a shot with there rifle under there close supervision but not advicable at anyhting live,not untill he can hit targets first,so a day on the range would be most helpfull to him sorry to ask but why cant you get an FAC or wouldnt you like to say,but I know of people with very bad history who has been granted a ticket,unless you have been done for armsed robbery or other firearm offensive you may be surprized
  10. not really I keep things for reference in my favourites,they come in handy to educate people now and again,
  11. yes it will help and depending on your force may not make you have a mentor,the more experience you can show the better it will be good luck
  12. thank you,I love popping out in the afternoon sitting with the bino shooting long range vermin,its all good practice,Ive just set a youtube account up for when I get a new video camera,should have some interesting shots for people to veiw
  13. Ahh so you agree theres nothing wrong with trying to better ones self,amazing your alwasy dragging me down,well trying to,for telling people the same thing your unbelievable
  14. lets not play games we all know who you ment,please show me where I have said 1 MOA isnt acceptable now 4 inch MOA does need throwing in the bin as 99% of normal people will agree,so please keep to facts and not fiction from your vicous little mind. as to you saying thing to my face I would love you to,unfortuanatly your too far away,damm shame
  15. I have no idea what yout on about,and you say I cant grasp the English language I think some people should look in the mirror please show me where i have made a mistake as Steve Wonder would also like to see that
  16. not been dorr knocking for quite a while,just called in as the farms are opposite land I already shoot told the farmer Ive seem foxs in with his sheep and lambing will soon be on us his words were "get tham shot" the foxes not the lambs before anyone jumps in went next door and he said the same

  18. Just been out for a plink around my permissions and picked up another 2 farms side by side and to top it off shot 2 magpies 254 and 191 yards,cant beat it
  19. cracking link must have taken you ages to find it its sums up nothing really only that if your happy to shoot 1 MOA thats fine,BUT some poeople want better or is this wrong just because 1 MOA is acceptable in fact 4 MOA is accepted at 100 yards. depends on what you want as an individual but please dont tell people its OK to be satified with it as some people want better. one question a yes or no will do,is it wrong to try and better yourself in your chosen sport just likje any game shooter they strive to hit longer and faster birds,is this wrong or do we all have to stay at the same level just beacsue the "old timers" say thats all the hight your need ?? same applies to rifle shooting, by the way I have "NEVER" proclaimed to be an expert so please refrain from trying to be funny by saying such things,beleive it or not some people do want to better themself and there equipment,if they didnt they would be all like you and few others,no offence ment by the way but as Chuck Hawks agrees "only accurate rifle are interesting"
  20. got one of those as well,there OK but you cant have enough "variation" funny thing is 9 times out of 10 I use my hand
