30-06hunter

when i was there last they told me that they owned the land, it was purchased from the MOD a long time ago. its a shame there is strict member rules, and they always hold a completion every sat and sun so for me. who just wants to sight in rifles and or just have a go at different ranges to make dope charts. was a bit too much faf. but i can understand the reason why. but great shop there called Fox Firearms.. awesome prices.

chears pal. I knew a few people would just go straight to don't buy a cheap one get a zeiss etc etc and not notice i have to fork out for US and OZ trips in the next month. but thanks for the recommendation i will look into those scopes. it will just go on my .30-06 until Jan then i will stick it onto one of my rimfire etc. then get a proper one sorted.

not sure you read my post all the way through. i need a scope to just last till next year. i already have a trip to the US next week and a month in OZ in november to pay for. just need a scope to down a few deer until next year. then next year i will have the cash to get a Leica or Schmit etc. as my old scope was damaged on the glass and my current "get me out the **** " scope isn't up to par. simple.

no no he might be right here.. i have the same thing. an albino cock pheasant very strange very strange ....

Thats good to know.. you can read what they say on the websites but at the end of the day there trying to sell it. hence why the MTC i got that apparently can go on a .50cal but didn't work out. my .30-06 is a short barrel and when using it with out a mod there is a fair wolop from it on 180 grain

Now i know this is going to be a heated discussion amongst some but here it goes. First off i want to say i am someone who like to buy the best i can afford and believe in buy cheap, buy twice. But here is my problem... I need a new scope to see me through to next year on my .30-06 money is a bit tight due to an upcoming week in the US and a month in OZ all before December.. so i need the best quality scope for not alot to go on my rifle that can take the concussion of the .30-06 and hold zero and preferably have exposed turrets. I stuck an MTC on it due to the website saying.. it can go on a .50cal blah blah.. my rifle nocks it out of zero after each shot.. and you can track it moving an inch after each shot. so looking to spend a couple of hundred on one to see me till january when i plan to get something like a Ziess etc. so what have you used that you were surprised with the quality and performance for the £ that is suitable for centerfires cheers

TV and commercial cameraman. You would of seen some of my adverts on TV and possibly documentarys I shot for BBC1 and discovery.

Thanks for the advice, i followed it today but sadly it hasn't worked. although it has added the extra tension i needed. it still hasn't fixed my problem. it now struggles on the second load (after the +1 in the chamber), if i slam the pump back really hard it will load the first round out of the tube but then will not load the second (last) one in the tube note - i can manually eject them using the push button in the action. it feels like the tube ejector is not getting depressed when the slide is pulled back and the shell tray is lowered - see photos - pump nearly at the fully closed position to load shell

hey everyone. I have a mossberg 835 pump.. and I'm having issues with it loading the last shell. any ideas.. It cycles the first 2 and when i pump for the last it just doesn't pick it up it just sits in the mag tube. any help would be great.

yeah this was not all me, there is a few of us in camp. and the bears are hibernating at this point. they freeze pretty solid quite quick so a wolf would have a hard time getting at it. but they are usually content with the guts left in the field and the young deer.

you should get yourself over there.. total different way of thinking about hunting over there. and the shops ! i usually come back with all new gear at half the price you get it in the UK and better quality. and flying with a rifle is pretty straight forward. this is a usual Haul for a week.

So what was the verdict ?

yes a bit cold.. last hunt it was -10 one day. but the deer move a lot to keep warm and with the snow its a good days tracking. A buddy of mine i hunt with lives in Guelph thats not far from hamilton, but we drive about 8 hours north to the hunt.
