  1. its a shame that people need to ask around for assistance in such unfortunate circumstances, if only they were allready a member of BASC or similar then they would have help on the other end of the phone. I hope its sorted soon :blink:
  2. We have a resident expert on here now and again, not heard from him for a while now though, he goes by the name of "deadeye ive" He can tell you all about curing fox pelts and also on what program to wash them on in your wifes washing machine . the older members would of heard his stories
  3. Oh !!! i got all exited then, i thought i may have been able to eventually get to shoot the 600yard on the Sunday, That reminds me not heard from the plonker with the cannon has someone from the previous bisley meets sent him off on a harley I will not forget that man for a long time
  4. It depends on the situation, most of the time i leave the vehicle (on the farm land) with a full magazine in after the bolt has been closed, so no round chambered. When i get to the point that i may have a clear shot at quarry wich would in this situation would be Fox then i chamber a round and safety on before any calling is made or lamp is used. If i am rabbiting from a vantage point then the bolt is in and closed, magazines are full but not inserted. until i reach my destination.
  5. check out your local Dunelm, get some foam cut out partitions and sylicone on the inside
  6. Who on earth found this Forum David ike who, the bloke needs to be sectioned. This chap is mentally unstable for goodness sake he thought he was the son of Jesus didnt he ? This post should be moved to the Joke section !!!!!!!!!! Not in General shooting
  7. sounds like you have a trojan of some kind, If you can get it removed by using malware tools then all well and good but i doubt it, If you still have problems seriously check out bleeping computers, like Pigeon watch it is a Forum , only with a different interest. It is set up by PC Geeks who love to help out PC problems, they sorted mine out some time ago.
  8. check out "bleeping computer" very good
  9. I agree 100% :yp: My Mrs was told she must work the full 3 months notice, and the threat of suing for god knows what, OK go ahead, a multi billion £ world wide company suing a blue colar worker for a few hundred £ front page news, i dont think so No way, 6 weeks was given. and as you say, if it was that good to have left in the first place you aint going to go back, Something learnt in my life, never go back- B) always go forward
  10. i would say a 5inch target 1+1/4 groups if so, not bad but could do better. i am sure have you tried different ammo through it RWS/ LAPUA / many more to choose from. i know allot of folk use eley but not every rifle will like them. get yourself a good rest for the rifle (it doesnt have to be expensive, old socks filled with rice will do the job) and test as many as you can
  11. Aaahh!!!!!!!!!!! poor Sam, i felt for you whilst reading this and nearly came round with some morphene to help out with the pain. Really i cant believe you posted this I see you driving round in you big macho 4X4 ,15 stone, with your flat cap and long hair, shot gun or rifle on the back seat, blubbering cus a little ants bit your elbow. how do you think that poor fox felt some time ago that took you god knows how many attempts kill it. (just pulling your leg Ha Ha!)
  12. decroyffe, I have an A bolt 30.06 and agree as you say its bloody heavy on the trigger, I replaced the trigger spring for one allot lighter, it has made one hell of a difference for the better. But i must add, shortly after it was taken to a gun smith, (a very good one i must add) to be threaded for a "jet-z" i mentioned about the trigger and what i had done to improve the weight of pull, his reply was ;- "Oh! your a gun smith are you :blink: you've been "P"ing about with the bloody trigger. Next time ask some one who knows what there doing, specially on the trigger, any way its ok" so yes it will make a differnce
  13. Just out of interest what are you planning putting it on calibre wise 6-24 x 50 is a high mag scope, i have the 4-14x50 illuminated and find it is extremely good so good infact i am in the process of getting another one. Image quallity is exellent, light transmission i would say very close indeed to the top end boys (Swar / S&. I dont think at all you will be dissapointed Just for info, the prices have gone up dramaticly over the past few years, very likely due to there popularity, and being recognised as allot better quality that origanaly thought
  14. How about snaring it, you will need to keep your cat in the house though.
  15. Its also a good idea to get a reloading manual for that specific calibre
  16. The sad thing is with most of these type of scum, the majority of the dogs used for dog fights were more than likely pets taken from loving family's this also goes with badger baiters. I hope if they do return they get there punishment. and more
  17. You can get 12v bulbs with a pencil beam,also 6v (have a look on tinternet) which will actually be allot better that the standard bulbs from logan which in my opinion are rubbish. I found that there was no real benefit in going 12v you would not gain much if any in brightness. I will assume you allready have the Logun Lamp you would have been better off with a tracer attom or compact The 12v Tracer attom i can reccomend for Rabbits with RF or Air, variable power
  18. You may still be able to get them on the internet, but i have heard they are trying to get them banned due to the fact they are cruel They are very good i have used them in the past, if you need to get any none target species off you can use veg oil. search for "glue boards".... 6 for £4.99
  19. i use one, bought i think it was about £200 but very good, one point though is it has safety device incoraprated, so its not possible to get your fingers in the way !!!! so if you do decide to make one i would seriously consider that point
  20. To openly have a go at other posts in such a manner showing your apparent mood swings quite clearly, (this is the pair of you) if i were a Fire arms enquiry officer i would really consider either of you having a gat gun let alone anything else. Surly you are mature enough to give your oppinions without being aggresive. or maybe not in this case shooting at moving targets i have done, i have also followed through and considered the shot not safe, this was during a driven Boar shoot. So people do it some wont do it, so thats life, but taking a shot at distance and hitting the target well thats most probably spending more of so called life practicing that paticular discipline. Come on chaps stop acting so or stop posting.
  21. you could even hinge the front piece of skirting making yourself a secret little storage space, room for cartridges :lol:
  22. A few rabbits taken off freshly cut grass, there were 60 odd counted before we entered the field, i dropped a clanger by not taking the 17 as most were out of range for definate shots with a 22lr, but still my shooting partner managed about 20 by going into the field a different way,with his 22, i on the other hand only managed to bag 3, still they will no doubt be out Saturday.
  23. I also do not agree with that statement. I used to spend about 2 weeks a year for quite a few years fishing aroung Athy, Carlow, Gowna,Cavan and Keshkerigan and i can say the Guinness overthere is as different as lager and bitter is over here. Over here i dont touch the stuff because i cant stand the taste, but if i go over the water thats all i used to drink. The amount of landlords over here that argue with you and tell you its the same get on my pip, if its the same how come it tastes different

    Rapid 12

    Is the trigger sear actually engaging it sounds to me like someone may have screwed the hammer spring adjuster in too far and not allowing the sear to engage. try unscrewing it a couple of turns, see what happens. Thinking about that :yp: you should notice when you pull the trigger. just read you earlier posts, you got it new, and deleted my earlier comments.. You must take it back to the shop,
