desperado

Thanks guys, helpful info Think I'll give it a go if I get round to it at some point. Cheers desperado

OK after Benny's proof (in the Sporting Pictures section) that a bipod definitely works for him on a springer what is everyone else's EXPERIENCE. Not so much interested in what people have heard about bipods on springers, more interested in hearing from ppl who have actually tried it themselves or had a shot of someone else's. I've searched the forum and there seems to be lots of opinions that bipods dont work but Benny's pics say otherwise. cheers desperado

I have a HW 35 too and I have thought about getting a bipod to help with steadiness. I see yours is one that fixes to the barrel - whereabouts and what price? cheers

Not illegal but not wise. A good carbine barrelled air rifle is small enough to provide a quick shot, especially using open sights at close range. I am sure it is possible to kill with an air pistol but in my opinion its not the best tool for the job. Why use 6 ft/lb and be uncertain when you can use 12 ft/lb and be sure. I can see no good argument for air pistol hunting, especially when air rifles are being manufactured more and more compactly. Just my 2p desperado

Its so bad its funny

to PW

Its ok I say that to everyone on here to make them feel good

When my mum was a child their cat came home with only 3 legs, it had been caught in a trap or something. Anyway my grandad took it behind the shed and gave it back end of the shovel. It was what happened back then, vets were for working animals or livestock. It is only society that has softened. I like cats, own a cat but wouldn't hesitate to finish him off if he was suffering or beyond the help of a vet. It is no different to finishing off a pricked pigeon or a badly shot rabbit is it? the man speaks wisdom desperado

No I think its been left on by the mods to show everyone how silly you are desperado

Next we'll have the myth of the ice bullet - the perfect assassination tool!! They tried it on mythbusters ages ago and def couldn't work. Pretty cool idea tho

I don't support BNP but they are fairly pro field sports. Also believe you should be able to shoot burglars that enter your property. Google the BNP site for more info. desperado ps. dont be taken in by their new friendly exterior

I totally agree - far too many jumping on this thread and being moaning marys. As for Danger mouse - you are just trying to turn people against PW for your site. I think we would all be a lot worse off on other sites. If you don't like it, sling your hook. desperado

Ok everybody take deep breaths and count to 10...

Worked 4 me kirky

You can camp in the wild - just be considerate and leave the ground as you find it. Fires are ok too as long as you are careful (goes without saying). Only thing might be if you have your tent and its on land not quite in the wilds enough, and it is actually a farmers field (yes there are at the foot of the Ben) the farmer might not be too pleased if you camp there for a week. If you have any experience of walking up munros I advise against taking the 'tourist' path to the top - the views aren't the best on the way up otherwise. Have a great time desperado
