So far she was right .

  18. Snipe were about the first thing I ever shot.Nota lot of game about were I could shoot in them days .I was still at school.I had a 16 bore. With very little. Choke in the first barrel I walked them up with my gun mounted .I always shot very quick and I did quite well.
  19. Why pick a dog with a hard mouth.I don’t think there’s any cure.I had a springer for 13 years he was a good dog except for the hard mouth .My springers mouth is so soft.
  20. Lady I know has 2 foxes in her garden . They have a den they’ve been digging the garden up.She’s going to mix garlic and curry and sprinkle it around garden .Just wants them moving shootings the last resort. Can you still get Renadin ? Any ideas.
  21. When your ready to start reloading .let me know the powder your going to us and I will sort you some loads.If you use new cases just in one gun shouldn’t need to resize. De and re capping easy to make scales and a RTO and your ready to go.
  22. Would be quite easy to reload with basic hand tools.That’s the way I would go.
  23. The service in curry’s is absolute rubbish .that’s not just my experience.I’ve been kept waiting while they finish chatting.Took things back and asked questions about electrical items they were unable to answer. It’s as though the staff have not had any training.So why is that in your opinion a stupid statement??
