Dougy

Sorry no i have been on a few but never owned one, If it hurts then eye wear protection. It doesnt have to be a shotty pellet, a Bumble bee could cause you to loose your sight thats a dam site heavier than a pellet.

What the If thats as close to word for word as the FEO said, i would question there position as FEO. sounds a bit of a #lonker

whats the spread going to be at 300 yds you will be lucky to hit a car at that distance, even if it does it will only be like fly hitting the car.

Out last night on the freshly cut fields, Mr Fox trotting accross the field, i expected some would be out on the fields late evening and i wasnt dissapointed. Shot at about 21.55 i didnt need the lamp as there was enough light to see. This was again after a call from a local farmer complaing about the Fox doo doo in the cattle feed,

Is it not true that unless you neck turn inside and out using a bushing die wont give consistant neck tension.And actually have an adverse affect.

IAm sure you know the befifits of both cals, plus one simple difference one,s noisy and one aint. There will be times when the benifits of one out weigh tbe other, regarding bouncing bullets, yes the 22 will bounce more often, how far will it go just check whats behind the target,as all should as a matter of course.

Frenchie i found the exact same thing only i was recording the time's and dates on a trial cam, We had our eye on one Fox that showed signs of damage on its right shoulder (bullet damage possibly didnt look like mange, will poss post pics soon)possibly a vixen and a dog around the same area and simalar times. We had been baiting up for about a week and went out an hour before the expected time for both to appear, but no show. We baited up for the next few days but only had Badgers taking the bait and the odd carion, but no sign of the 2 Fox's,. The crops are too high at the moment so they are safe for the time being. But answer to you question :- dont know but its happened to me too

Has anyone on here heard of, or actually have one on there CF rifles. Any opinions of them I have one on a 22.250 and i am quite impressed with it sound reduction wise ,weight and price.

As above home made are the best, pork and leek sausage meat to die for, Get the biggest eggs you can hard boil or just long enough as the yolk is soft but not runny deep fry and scoff. Nice hot or cold :thumbs: When i do mine there are the size of tennis balls, a reet good feed :thumbs:

Nothing has to happen for them to die, some of them just like to die, its what they do best Oh!!! and escape

Well done Ronan. Lovely place around you (its the horses i know it from the wifes hobby) Your not telling us its your first time out with the rifle in 5 years, or not been on here for 5 years.

The sheep/lamb allready dead, so in that respect it wouldnt gain any brownie points for us. If it were a lamb half way out of the ewe during birth then maybe

WHAT THE :lol: :lol: you perv :lol: :lol: :lol: fishing was good tooo

Its something that for luckily the majority of us will never understand. They believe very strongly there religion or call it what you will, i was talking to one of there followers some years ago trying to understand why or what they believe, why they do what they do. After some time i was begining to wonder what or why they are told by there seniors to me seemed utter tosh, but to them they are right and everyone else in the whole world is wrong. Just imaging some of us who will put there life on the line and argue that black is white & night is day, its what they are told from an early age and unfortunatly its what they believe and to them they are correct. We got rid of the lad ASAP

Dave i feel for you, i know exactly how you are feeling. I am at the moment sitting in front of a roaring fire sipping MAX STENGTH LEMSIP.and Brandy and Lemonade. Cant be bothered to go shooting cus i feel FAR TO ILLto even move from my chair. I have just got the mrs to fetch more logs for the fire. Get well soon.

Weather your into full bore target shooting out to 1000 mtrs or shooting low powered air guns people strive to get the best accuracy out of what tools they have at hand,how they do it and which methods it doesnt matter What matters is they try. There will be times it wont do anything what so ever,so, we had a go. Sometimes we improve our goal by improving our own confidence.

If you are intent on washing your pellets then try the following process. wash in detergent to remove any oils muck on the pellets rinse and place on a towel to dry - aid using a warm oven rinse again in a stong solution of car-wash and wax, drain and leave to dry. you can feel the coating on the pellets.

Personaly i think the chap with the pan on his head being a Dalek was the best

crackin day , not sure if i have caught the sun by my rosy face or if its from the powderburn with the amount of shooting... Strange smell of dog fox around the campsite.lol

make the gap deep enough to put a box of cartridges underneath if you need to raise the cabinet. Finish off with a lttle door, hey presto your own little secret hidy hole

Dump outside Battersea power station, i am sure it will make the Fox's live more entertaining

No worry's hey !!!! just thought there's some sheep in the field next to the shoot Will take my Chrono i am sure it will be put to good use. and NO NOT AS A TARGET !!!!!!!!

Dont forget to have a butchers at the multi tools, leatherman,gerber, sogg. not really nessasary to buy the dogs danglies version the cheap ones are just as usefull. Pliers screwdrivers ect

Yep my hole's big aswell, all though its a Sako they will all pretty much be the same.

will get my hair cut special then maybe with a little spray on i
