Archie-fox

Hi all Looking for a set of pigeon hide poles and bag...anyone got a set they don't use for sale?? Please pm me if you do.. Rich.

Well done mate..

Think the iPhone camera was dirty mate..

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...

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..

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

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.

Hi mate I've a 2.6mm red screw in bead of that's any use?? £5 delivered..Brand new un-used Rich.

Look for mark@mbb in the forum he's made some cracking fox traps I think has got some picks in the crafts section..

Well done mate..

factory round 32 grain i think..

if i remember it was the Hornady v-max round..it was awesom on crows and magpies but just found problems on foxes..

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...

Well done mate nice write up..

Nice fox that mate...well done

first dibs on thye rabbit decoy please steve... Rich.

Once put my fox caller in a field turned it on, gave it a few mins..had a flash round with the lamp to see two badgers charging my caller at full speed..

nice shooting mate...nice pics as well

same sort of thimg has happened to me, i worked for astra zenica and have been outsourced to a security company, and they are trying to mess with our pay to bring in cheap labour...at the moment im down at least £400 a month and have still to wait about my pension and other benifits as securitas say they wont honour it...as securiats say we get paid too much and arnt making any money they are bringing in minimum wage staff and cutting our overtime...bad times.

i know that feeling i used to be a nightclub doorman and often did a 12 hour day shift then on the doors till 3am then back in work at 5am so used to power nap on the sofa so as not to wake the wife then red bull hot shower then back to work... you feel like you have been drinking..but at the age of 33 i cant do it anymore when i have to bi for my day job... :yp: :yp:

Thanks for that mate... found one on the evil bay and got one....Thanks again
