  1. 223 or any centre fire maybe a bit of a push for first time fac regardless of age , you certainly have good enough reason , give it a go they can only say no at worst or more likely give you part ie 22 and poss 17 , all good choices there in my opionion lol i have same good luck atb gerry x-leekite
  2. pm sent thanks...SOLD ,,,,, THANKS ,,,,,,,
  3. They must be becomeing a real pest all over if they have been put under the general license so they can be shot with rifle anytime , where i go there is a huge lake and all the swans and other native wildfowl are been pushed right out of it , there are thousands the sky goes black certainly no shortage around here , well maybe soon lol
  4. thats the reason i asked , i was at the farm i go and it came up and i only had my 223 for fox only ,so was snookered but wanted to know for later this week what the score was , lets get them
  5. I will go with that,Its the clearest answer ive got all day atb gerry moss lol, it would be nice though if when you phone those that should know, did!
  6. well my opinion was a 17hmr was a bit light for a canada , but as my 223 was only for fox ive asked for canada to be added , now as said previous 'mudpatten' is maybe why ive had to put it on as a condition on my license along with fox ,or was it because i wanted to use my 223 to shoot them , but it reads to me and most that they are as of from jan 1st vermin .under general license IM NOT bothered by having them added i can shoot them , the road i followed was BASC search 'canada geese' followed down then IN england read down to canada , follow link to fauna and flora ?? something like that . But back to a hmr you check it out tomorrow with your feo and see what answer you get as a comparison , see if they class them as vermin or do you need a special condition ? . How are they shot now as game
  7. Ive rang round the houses today and yes i can shoot canadian geese , and i need to get a condition on my license to add canada geese , the game conservancy for one said ok that was from under the banner of duram constab for advice ,But this is only for England which was the major confusion , it has come under general license from 1-1-11 untill dec 11 and as such also become vermin , my head is spinning so dont shout im only passing on what ive been informed today and what is happening as in , a added condition of use for my 223 for fox and now canada geese , ive contacted defra , basc , all sorts of wildlife agencies as above the game conservancy all gave a green light .as long as all other methods have failed etc the norm .
  8. Leupold 6.5-20x40 VARI-X 111 AO TARGET TURRETS gold ring model no crimp marks duplex lovely clear thin sight cross priced reduced to £370 posted ovno one was sold on a forum recently indentical apart from low turrets which is not as good for a target scope for 400+ post these were a £800+ scope new, im also willing to swap ive a remmy700 short action im looking for a accuracy international stock or simalar , this is allready listed some time ago pics included but will forward pics if of genuine interest thanks for looking gerry
  9. Hi can anyone confirm that canadian geese are now classed as vermin under general license , ive looked on BASC but depending which result you want it depends on which way you interpret it ta gerry ps what cal would you say was suitable 22lr 17hmr ? or 223 and 12g
  10. any offers welcome thanks
  11. so nothing to unusual then , bit silly having a brass gauge if they are no use , i did not meen deadly accurate but if i can't tell if ive got a full or half choke in its a bit pointless even as a rough guide . thanks for replies atb gerry
  12. hi ive the 28" barreled ,perfect for me as im not 6' tall lol , my rfd told me the same and to save my money as the only real difference was the engraveing , But in all honesty i had picked mine out as the one i liked the best nice simple engraveing ,and was unbiased as none were priced .
  13. +1 thumbs up , Some are very dismissive as it classed as a entry level shotgun, which is a bit insultive , its far from it, compared to some its way above entry .
  14. Hi ive just got a Bisley bore gauge 12g , checked the beretta all as should be then i checked the winchester inv+, full choke measures as half - 3/4 choke = measures 1/4 and so on

    AICS STOCK

    hi im after a accuracy international stock pref in green
  16. hi whats the blueing like under camo please
  17. Its all swings and roundabouts nice to have a plus point for a change , But that must really P*** you off , excludeing my shotguns even my 223 remmy has only a 20" barrel anything longer reminds me of the cival war with great long things , but the other side the coin you can have some serious big stuff now that should compensate a bit .
  18. Im glad this has come up , im new to glasses as of today , i need them for very close up and very distant focus should i of asked for ie bi-focal flip-up or are there purpose made shooting glasses , you may chuckle but i truly have no idea i asked at the opticians and mentioned shooting with a scope i may as well of spoken russian to the girl to the crazy point she said O! you want a lens to put in your thingy ( she meant scope) i think and what does it do , px and ocular focus well , you can guess , So is it as simple as i now have to become an octopus swaping glasses holding the rifle and px'ing all at the same time surely not ??
