  1. May struggle to get someone as the BASC game fair will be on that weekend and most shooters I know will be attending. Great offer though I am sure it will be taken up in no time.
  2. Cracking opportunity for someone. I am in the area once in a blue moon. If you was looking for a planned night or day out but unlikely I can drive up there all the time. You will have plenty of people PM you though so don’t worry. πŸ‘
  3. Very nice offer where abouts are the fields you’ll be shooting on? Kent area I am gusseing.
  4. Welcome to the forum. You would be very lucky to sign up and get a permission in an hour or so with no previous content but best of luck. ?
  5. As a heads up for everyone as I have had a few people send PMs already I will take them all into account after a few days to a week as it just gives everyone a fair chance to come across the post I have already seen a couple of good replies so I may be taking a couple of people one at a time though. Kind regards NickπŸ‘
  6. Looking for a shooting buddy really I have recently got some time from work freeing up my weekends and Thursdays and Fridays I will be heading out more in future and no doubt I will get bored on the odd day or night so I am looking for someone to come along on my perm. The perm is based in ongar essex looking for someone who wants to learn or a fellow shooter who has either NV/ or day scope no lamping allowed. Preferably with your own perm as it would be nice to try some where different every now and then but it's not a requirement as I know most people won't have their own permission/land. Extra note: I am also trying to get involved with the game keeping side of things more so any game keepers near me need a helping hand with day to day things let me know as I would love the chance to get hands on and I don't mean just being a beater. Not expecting money in return just want the experience. Anyone interested just DM me and as always you must have insurance unless your just starting out kind regards Nick. πŸ‘
  7. A little too far chap you could have joined me for a night or two. Nice offer though. πŸ‘ Nick.
  8. All day long for me, but I am bashing them at 80 yards in fixed spots so I haven't got to do any stalking. πŸ‘
  9. Definitely reading into it too much chap rabbit is a nation wide pest and are not protected by any closed seasons go to town on them get as many as you can. NickπŸ‘
  10. This is the one I use it took a while to break it in but I would be lost without it now high enough for me that I can completely relax and still see straight down the sights.

  11. Well good man the response was to Adi786 however the same advice could help you πŸ˜†. As for the worn out knees doesn't mean a thing nothing a little improvisation can't fix just means you should take shots seated or prone in the mean time I will look for the fountain of youth for you. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Nick.
  12. Chap I think you are putting to much pressure/weight on the gun meaning your leaning to hard into it or pushing down to much on the bipod, another common factor is shooters buy 50mm scopes which require extra high scope mounts meaning to look through the scope you have to take your cheek off the butt to look down the scope losing your stability. By the sound of it it's more to do with the leaning on the rifle too much as your shots seem fine in the truck probably because your centre of gravity is further back in the chair and thus less weight on the rifle. Advice: In the case you using a 50mm scope buy yourself a good butt comb/cheek rest so when your completely relaxed you can see right down the scope without using your neck muscles Second: when you go to take a shot practice just letting the rifle rest in your shoulder with minimal pressure the less you pressure on the rifle the less movement you will experience and pull the trigger slowly so it almost surprises you. Other than that the rest is practice makes perfect control your breathing and try not to let the adrenaline get the better of you. This is just my opinion hope this helps PM if you want. Nick.
  13. Should be fine then really just have to keep an eye out for them thought out the day.
  14. I wouldn't chap unless the sheep are already huddled into a corner far away. Sheep die from almost anything shock from a shotgun going off could be one of them I am not saying they will but why risk it. Have you got a moderator like a hush puppy could just take the sound down a little as not to spook the sheep.
  15. How big is the golf course. I am asking because if it's large with rural surroundings then put in for a .22 rimfire rifle will deal with the rabbits much better and once you get enough experience put in for a more powerful rifle e.g. .17HMR to deal with foxes or larger depending on the surroundings.
  16. Nice offer chap waiting for one like this my way good luck though. Nick.πŸ˜„
  17. Chap I would have loved to have joined you especially as I was looking into gamekeeping but just too far away you will get many offers though chap so don't worry. NickπŸ˜„
  18. We have had a mild winter which is probably the main cause for so many rabbits running around to be fair but to cull more you need traps or more guns put simply. Pm me if you do concider another gun would love to get out else where. Hope this helps Nick
  19. Take some chaps out with you lol until it dies down. Nick.
  20. Easy one chap get yourself a NV set up. I recommend an arrow with firefly hope this helps.
  21. Any mounted light mate try a tracer GL4 tactical with red light. ahttp://www.google.co.uk/aclk?sa=l&ai=CFssQUq3fVOD2GOahygP15IGICqfe26sGr5XEhJgBqOC7jkQICRAHIN7Nzx4oDWC7hoCA0AqgAZWB9vADyAEHqQJzNyHPG9e5PqoEJk_QT5141-lSO0THdnN2TZmKly44sGiAF_SUP5N1xqngrfJTkUR9wAUFoAYmgAfT_okPiAcBkAcCqAemvhvYBwHgEquz5a-0zqGnRg&sig=AOD64_3wyqN3t0UG1VVmsYsiGA1RRkhl-g&adurl=http://www.ronniesunshines.com/tracer-gl4-tactical-gun-light-red.html&ctype=5&rct=j&q=&ei=Uq3fVNeWFoHVygOk7IHgAQ&ved=0CJYDEKcrMAw
  22. Get yourself sat down and comfatable and hidden if you have a lot of them chap your going to be there for a while lol. Nick.
  23. Do it at dusk mate best time and get them out by spreading peanut butter along the floor close enough to tempt them but far away to be in the open. Try a red light or NV set up to get maximum amount.
