  7. more bucks from the last 2 days
  8. I have tried them all. i now use 139gr sp's for roe does and 156gr rn sp's for bucks as they will pass through nettles and grass without deflection and the bucks are usually shot at well under 100m's. it has shot driven wild boar and been taken on moose hunts all with 156gr. its a very versitile round. with 85-120gr bullets its flat shooting.
  9. thats correct jase, my estate rifle is a sako 75 finlite 6.5x55 custom mod, optilock rings and a zeiss vari point 3-12x56 scope. a very nice set up for lending out.
  10. good do, that was a great beast to remove. well done.
  11. that was his first 2 shots on deer ever. both good heart/lung shots. shame i never got my 240m shot on vid and his first.
  12. Jase i have you down for the 20th???? I stop shooting on the evening of 20th and don't go back to work till the 1st april.
  13. Picked some more ground up this week well x3 bits actually. The bit i went on this morning is 525 acres and full of deer. saw 21 this morning but many bucks or fat does, and poor backstops stopped shooting. Finally after a couple of unproductive efforts and the farmer ringing me to tell me to "stop larking around and kill some bloody deer", I decided to shoot a mature doe which was safe but to far for a novice to shoot. I took my rifle and after lasering the deer @ 242m's dailed it into the zeiss's turret, got comfy on my sticks and shot her perfectly through the heart with a 139 privvi. She ran 10 paces and fell dead. Her 2 followers were shocked and milled around, I now got the client + girlfriend in closer to the young does 90m's he went on to shoot both perfectly through the hearts in minutes. A productive morning and a great first morning out. Within minutes of the last shot the farmer was on the blower asking how many did he have to skin. He asked me to drop one in at the neighbours on my way around and that gathered another 55acres up. of adjasent ground. Liz was so impressed with her morning fancies a go herself now. Adam had a great morning paid for by liz for his birthday.
  14. no once on the whistle you can train them to come to the quad+whistle and take them anywhere. the down side is you have to be there twice a day every day at the same times.
  15. these birds are hand fed (daily) only trained onto a whistle. so no feeders are used.
  16. this mornings young doe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy91FOtILSg first stalk ever and a nice wee doe shot well.
  17. It did clip the spine on the inside of the rib cage.
  18. I agree but nows the time to get out and watch the does then you will soon get to know which you can shoot and which you can't. If anything videos like mine should be seen as educational if you read the post as well it will often explain whats happening and why.
  19. watch this the old doe can clerly be seen pregnant and the young doe is easily identified. the choice is easy and the old doe not targeted. simples i do this for a living and been shooting roe for 25 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YAKA45gfPU&list=UUSW7TWPvQDa8mDosB2eczHw&index=2&feature=plcp
  20. dead easy, old are like barrels young are like slimmers. Another yearling doe this morning
  21. And when targeting barren yearling does why not may i ask??????????
  22. taken this evening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSN4T6JOXxc
