Absolute cracker GG. love to see the smaller birds. We all sit in hides or at the side of woods and we see these and some stunning birds and we have the opportunities to see these birds in action and more but bye the time we get the camera out of the bag or pocket the moment has gone. My hat comes off to you GG well done m8 great pics as always, keep up the great work m8. If we all spent more time with cameras than guns we all could have great pics like GG's, its there in front of us every day.

Just scatter half a loaf around a tight area and leave some in the bread bag, i think the bag helps attract them more than just the bread alone.(imho) Their that used to black bags and other refuse lying about these days they just dive right in and rip the bags open. This is my first pcp rifle and oh boy what a difference , i've used spring guns for the past 40 years but none compare with this s400, the accuracy is amazing. I know theres no recoil but i think you have more confidence in shot placement with a pcp than with a springer. My 2 bobs worth anyway. I've left them alone all this week and my son wants to go give it a try this weekend so depending on the precipitation this weekend i might give them another go. thanks for the comments.

Out yesterday with half a loaf and my new AA s400 classic fitted with 3-9x50 Hawke Airmax MAP 6 and a Weihrauch Silencer, legal powered. Walked a few fields looking for some rabbit action but Mr fox was up before me and all the usual hotspots were empty. Out with the bread set it up on the top of this small rise at the corner of a field, the farmer had told me there was loads of magpies around this year could i get rid of a few.(what a question lol) Got the first one 15 mins after setting the bread out head shot at 35 yards, set him up as a decoy and boy did those magpies like the look of him. Most were shot from the top of the dead tree at about 35/40 yards out, 5 of the magpies and both crows were all hit in the head, so i ended the morning with 7 magpies, 2 crows and a young woodie, 1 of the crows got stuck in the ivy on the tree. Missed about another dozen as the wind was strong and gusting and my pellets were geting blown all over the place. I'll be back, and to my son who wanted a long lie TOUGH.lol the tree sits about 35/40 yards, this is my view. what a day just a pity the wind was so strong

Nice vid Frenchie, checking zero its something i always do until i get a quick shot while getting staight out of the car. Frenchie did you realy get head shats, how good would my aim need to be to get a few with this method. :unsure:

Nice video work there Frenchie and some real nice shooting.

Nice one Frenchie He looks like a real big boy

LOL @ frenchi, you go for it m8. I used .22 air rifles for years and thought the 177 wasnt up to much till i saw my m8's Original 50 take a woodie out the top of a high tree that us with the 22's wouldnt even think about. I have never used a .22 for over 30 years and would have to think never would again.imho BUT its the same old story whats better .22 v 177 or in frenchies case 22lr v 17hmr. Before everybody jumps in, its only what you'r comfortable and happy with that matters.

How much for the remotes

Nice filming m8 Looks like you have a good stock of game on your patch.
