The mutter under the breath *** had me giggling- top notch usual Simon Agriv8

Totally understand little chopper it’s a lot of cartridges to get through with a single bore. if circumstances change I will let you know but Mrs Agriv8 has said no to another cab ! Agriv8

I was practicing with some of those eleys this morning- very distinctive smell! I would have the shells but no room for the single barrel! Agriv8

A single with the 12 while having a wander about 1006

Villaman i have sat and tried that this afternoon and still the same ! in a drunken moment last night ordered a huma air gauge / upgraded one ! so fingers crossed it turns up next week and will be back shooting rats again thanks for you help Agriv8

Another vote- though the original still not too shabby! Takes me back Agriv8

Thanks ultra stu - recon there a few more rats floor and tree left in her yet ! after some corvids with her tomorrow. farmer mate dropped some fresh beef of from one of his bulls he’s had done and asked if I’d take a look at them nicking food from one of the feeders in the sheds !! got myself a chronograph an sneaked her up to 11 .5 ft lbs as will be a good 30 yards away ! Will report back how I get on if I get chance to get down !

So a further question- for you clever air gunners ! I have found a couple of websites that list a fill port with pressure gauge mod. as I can’t count - I belive a gauge would be a good shout as I would likely move away from filling “ just in case” to when needed the xtx ultra mmc strip down is really good but the one I found did not disconnect the fill port - but I will have another dig thanks for all your help Agriv8

Are we agreeing that worked ( turned up at some point ) and paid (for turning up ) is applicable here ? Agriv8

Thanks chaps :- looks like I will be stripping a bsa this evening ! struggling to see the kit but will have a look on the computer! regards Agriv8

So my bsa has been loosing pressure between trips to the farm after the rats ! I filled it tonight from the air bottle and there is a definite hiss from the probe fill port. is it a diy job ? I guess there is a one way valve o ring that is no longer only letting the air go one way !! what parts tools ? Any exploded diagrams or you tube that people have come across? Thanks in advance Agriv8

On a technicality as she will have been putting in expensise to cover her stag - so we payed for her son to work for her ! Agriv8

Could she have something in her nose rather that skin issue? would have thought they’d have checked ! agriv8

Because she that thick she not realised she has become an embarrassment!

68 years ! Well done - I have been TOLD we never argue - by Mrs Agriv8 Regards Agriv8

It’s not like local elections are just round the corner and it’s going to get headlines or anything……….,oh wait. What a flipping numpty !! ps wasn’t Neil donkey jacket kinnock support bright ginger hair in his day ? Agriv8

Have you a cog top righ Ditchy? ⚙️ agriv8 Or 3 vertical dots ? Like this ?

I would air on the side of caution depending on distance and terrain you intend to tow over ! I have towed trailer with car’s close to plated limit and when the trailer starts steering the car you need some balls ! if you are heading up some hills you may find that the car can’t do the beans ! motorways can be fun in your situation Agriv8

I think they will be trying to get one of her henchmen to take a bribe and stab her in the back. Those that have donated to the snp must be feeling green ! Agriv8

Well ditching that crossed my mind but she was very pleasant to the eye and the sort of lady that should be encouraged to wear riding jodhpurs! I will be enquiring with farmer mate who know everything farm related in the valley! yes I think that’s sums the tread up nicely . I have sympathy for the farmers and most I come across are more than happy to have a chat and can spot a working dog whether sheep dog or gun dog ! I am aware dogs can be shot if among livestock and have no problems being challenged about my dog while walking through there farm - but maybe her statement that it would be shot with no livestock about took me by surprise and one that I wanted clarification on !

Ok as the op here I see I have opened a can of worms but it’s all good healthy debate and the info above is interesting info and been taken on board by me - A little update - Ground nesting birds were not present again if they were she would have been on a lead . There are kerlew and lapwings both on higher scrub leading to the moors, there is not enough grass cover for any ground nesters on this field where she was ! Where I beat we often work dogs mine included through around sheep who are grazing. They tend to just move out of the way ! I have talked to my farmer mate ( who I pest control for ) and the farmers field I walked through is known for being a bit of a character ! - he doubts he actually owns a gun ! As tends to shoot from the mouth! My farmer mate belief is that shooting a dog on his land he would require at least one further witness of the dog in livestock causing a nuisance and evidence of an attack . I take on board that my dog was trespassing and it’s my fault for not having her at heal / on s lead. Let’s keep it friendly while chewing over our thoughts Agriv8

Happy for open discussion no hump here. I get where you are coming from and yes the land my dog was on was private land and yes I was taking the wee a bit .Obviously next time she will be on a lead. But can a dog be shot if there is no livestock I guess is the question? Agriv8 Again stu if there had been a sign asking for dogs to be on a lead she would have been ! Even sheep in next field she would have been on a lead Agriv8

Totally sympathetic if they have lost lambs to inconsiderate dog owners- and maybe it was a similar looking spaniel I trust my dog arround livestock but will still place her on a lead . spoilt a fantastic evening walk with my mutt really Agriv8

Just had a run in with a farmers daughter on a walk over the tops walk-in the spaniel over the moors on a public foot path that runs down into some fields no livestock about in the fields the path went through or fields to the left and right ( and all are usually been grown for first silage cut this time of year ) the spaniel had been cooped up all day so she was working left and right 20/30 feet and about 10 in front. There were some good smells about so good exercise and training! got a bit closer and it became clear she was not happy so got to about 50/60 foot away and I whistles the dog In And put her on her leads ( she had an old lab and ferret on a lead !) . her opening gambit was that her dad would have shot the dog if he was about! to which i replied is your dad allowed to shoot a dog if there are no livestock about ? Her reply there are sheep in the next but one field ( a good 300 400 yards away ) so I tried to joke that I could see that - but I was more worried about my dog and the chickens in the same field ! She complained that my dog could worry the yews in lamb At which point I reiterated that it there were any livestock in the vacinity she would have been called in and put on a lead ! I added the dog regularly works around sheep and lambs at the farm I have permission to do pest control over but she still seemed to have a bee in her bonnet about dogs on leads on footpaths! so decided to walk on and get home but it had me thinking about what’s the criteria that allows a farmer to shoot a dog ? Maybe not a clear cut as I thought Agriv8

Is the iPhone XR unlocked open on any network- if yes very interested u2u inbound Agriv8
