  1. Try ridgeline for clothing i use there jackets and can't fault them for the price..
  2. Well done mate...as andy said its very leggy. Looks a nice looking fox tho.. Rich.
  3. When I lived at home it was £40 per week...
  4. Amber filter for me...140 or 170 lightforce lamp... I agree with all the above posts some really good advice...all I can add is practice practice practice and as above only shoot when 100% sure it's a fox...
  5. Well done andy...I see the tikka is doing well..
  6. Is that a fox terrier??
  7. Morning all... I know this question has been asked before but on my iPhone so can't search for it....but I'm going to get a lithium battery this weekend to use on my lightforce 170 lamp...which is the best size to get for the longest use?? Thanks....rich.
  8. If you were local to manchester I'd of help shift that looks like some good bits for my wood burner...but that doesn't disguise the fact that it shouldn't have been dumped there...
  9. well shot guys...have a look at a lightforce 140 scope mounted with a amber or red filter.. thats what i use..
  10. Think the iPhone camera was dirty mate..
  11. Can't reply to all messages but will contact people thru this week with dates...spaces now filled as of 9am today...everyone who has sent a message will get a go...
  12. Went for a look on a couple of permissions had 2 foxes and a few rabbits...lost the first fox in the long grass but got this cub at 40 or so yards..
  13. Hello all As the glorious 12th approaches I have a opportunity for a few lucky people to try walked up grouse on a private moor in the Pennines... The bag will be limited to 1 brace each and the shoot will last about 2 hours...there is no charge for this opportunity as it is for people to sample the king of game birds in a fantastic surrounding...there is also the chance of a fox as we go thru the heather and all other vermin..it will be myself and just you..a well trained dog is a bonus...we may even get a chance at wildfowl.. This is not a opportunity for you to return without me as being arrested for armed trespass can often affend... The shoots will start around the beginning of September must be reasonably fit as its hard going...plus you will need to dress appropriate to walked up grouse..nothing fancy but no jeans!!!!.. Rich
  14. Born and bread in Halifax...Now live in Cheshire, all my family are still there but moved to be with my fiancé...been here about 3 years.
  15. factory round 32 grain i think..
  16. if i remember it was the Hornady v-max round..it was awesom on crows and magpies but just found problems on foxes..
  17. Just to add my experiance with a 204.. i had a howa 204 but i found with the round being so fast it tended to zip thru foxes and didnt kill cleanly unless you could head shoot them.. i had 2 runners with engin room shots..so went back to a tikka 223 no issues there, it could just be poor shot placement on my behalf but as said no issues with the 223...
