  1. Try These. http://www.thesmokering.com/pits/metalpit/...aby/default.jsp http://www.thesmokering.com/pits/metalpit/...aby/default.jsp
  2. Try this http://www.redletterdays.co.uk/experiences...Animal%20Lovers or try contacting the welsh hawking club (nation wide not just in Wales!)
  3. I think he means an air lock that you use for home brew? Lets gas out for expansion but seals any smells in due to the small P Trap or U bend.
  4. CPSA rules state a maximum of 28g with English size 6-9. I do use them on pigeon and crows though! £100 per thousand from Gilsan sports in Richmond, dont let him try to up the price though!
  5. I use a Mexican ammo called Aguila. Its very good and at £30 a thousand you cant beat it!
  6. Check out the seller he's an e-bay power seller. Do a little research into his feed back and history.
  7. Speedy try this site its excellent! http://www.crowbusters.com/index.htm Lots of great tips here!
  8. Markbivvy, I agree with you forums like this are a mine of information and we would all do well to learn from it. Be aware there are people who could read these forums with less than good intentions! BDS Test The test is as follows: Grouping- Three (3) shots within a prescribed 4-inch circle at 100 meters from the prone position or simulated high seat. Deer Target- All shots are to be within the 5 scoring ring on Buck Target from ranges and positions shown. (1) 100 meters (prone or from high seat) 2 (2) 70 meters (sitting or kneeling) 2 (3) 40 meters (standing) 2 6 shots total Aids: The only aids that may be used are items that the manager will always have available in the field, e.g. Rucksack, Rifle sling, Stalking Stick or Twin Sticks, Bipod, Shooting Bar on high seat etc. Time limits and Additional Attempts: No formal time limits are laid down but obviously an unrealistic amount of time (e.g. more than 30 seconds) should not be taken for each shot. No more than three (3) attempts at the test may be made on any one- (1) day. Borderline cases, even if they eventually pass, may be required to do more training and take additional tests. This is not a hard test but you would be surprised how many people fail this simple test!
  9. Did your keeper friend use a .22 NO! Thats my point exactly. You wouldnt be one of the select few if you had a deer legal calibre would you? Deer stalking has never been so popular or accessabile than it is now! As I said before the DMQ etc does not mean your an expert but it does give you an insight and it does test if you can hit a paper target in the correct place. If you cant hit the paper correctly what hope have you of hitting a live beast? Our aim is to cull humainly and effectivley. My original thread was about the use of.22 for deer and not weather or not i agree with DMQ or not wich incidently i dont because I see mo reason why one company should have the monopoly on the market.
  10. No worries mate, thought i was missing out on some thing good!
  11. Not quite what I said! Most vermin shooters who have an intrest in deer managment would do something about it and not wait per chance for a deer to appear in front of them one day! Your quite right the dmq/dsc does not make you a manager only gives you an insight into deer and the law! Trophy hunting and deer managment are too totaly differnt things either way you still need a legal calibre!
  12. Teal, can you explain your setup, I know the ipod but the broadcaster or itrip only works a short distance to a radio tuned to a certain frequncy? Varmint Al has some good sounds with built in silence periods.
  13. I think that the majority of .22 Centerfire in the right hands are capable of taking Roe, but in the wrong hands it could lead to terrible wounds. I am not saying you need a magnum calibre for roe but if you have a bigger cal you also have increased energy and hygrostatic shock which can make up for slight errors in bullet placement. This does not mean if you shoot a roe in the **** with a cannon you will get an instant kill because of the size of the round although i have no doubt it would die! The shock wave would be massive Also there are to many vermin shooters with .22 who would certainly not think twice about shooting a roe who do not have the knowledge or experince to shoot roe and who do not have roe or deer on there ticket. I would personly only recomend a minimum of 100 grain bullet for all deer! I know there are people on this forum who disagree.
  14. Personaly I would like to see Scotland come in line with English law!
  15. A 1 in 9 will take Military ammo wich is dirt cheap and great for range work only as its a FMJ!
  16. NTTF, is that hydrogen peroxide? The same stuff i use to bleach my Skulls with? There is a product on the market, I think its called Blue star wich does the same but is blue Expensive, use a good dog!
  17. The SBE and M2 are very similar as far as I can see? The differences I can see are weight and the SBE will take 3 1/2 inch as well. What else seperates these two models? Willhave mine next week! http://www.benelliusa.com/firearms/m2m1.tpl
  18. Ive just orderd an M2 in camo with a high capacity magazine, also comes with a standard mag. What are your thoughts on this weapon? The spec sounds like the mutts nuts!, Any body got one?
  19. Tested a SAk, Jet-Z and a PES. Fired all three one after another and PES was certainly the best!
  20. Anshutz 1517Db 18" Heavy barrell with a Pes moderator! Mutts nuts
  21. I got a JLM custom call from Crowbusters, very good all wood call. Only paid for delivery from Crowbusters. Actualy the shop is called Crowmart. http://www.crowmart.com/
  22. Same here, i am sure the first duck shoot of the season went well over on the marsh!
  23. Tiercel, I agree,but if you have the angle too shallow you will loose the edge very quickly. I think 25 degrees is about right.
