  1. To be honest with you pretty much all the digital stuff is cheap tac. It wouldn't be professional of me to talk about stuff out of turn. But you get what you pay for. Too many people are paying Vauxhall Corsa money and expecting Ferrari's Not saying for the masses digital night vision isn't adequate but please leave all the bitching behind. Horses for courses and al that
  2. I'd donate a large portion I think, choosing the charity would be the biggest issue. I don't want for much in life, I'm quite happy as I am. I don't even think I'd leave the military. All though rumour has it that if you earn more than the CO you must leave
  3. Wait for 4 or 6 weeks il have something that will blow your minds
  4. The shooting agents Iv worked for and work for now only ever employ on ad hock basis. I have a full time normal job to cover this. The problem with the agents they need to make money as well to make it worth while the hassle, and in this day and age no one wants to pay a reasonable price. So self employed is the norm as far as in was aware. Easier for them to just pay your invoices As for the shooting agent not responding to any form of contact, I don't hear from mine for months at a time. I just put in my invoice in just before April and he pays by BACS. It's a tough game and every one wants to do the job so he has to accept the ups and downs of it. Because at the age of 25 there will be another 30 or so 25 year olds waiting to jump into his slot.
  5. I sell military grade night vision. £3k will get you a mediocre unit, but again it truly depends on what you want to shoot and with what. My units range from £3k to £20k
  6. Such a sweet rifle the new owner is lucky
  7. I shot this very large vixen this morning whilst out stalking.
  8. I home load Berger 87gr VLD, lovely for muntjac if you head and neck shoot, deadly on fox steady on roe, 41.1 gr of H380 gets it to go fine
  9. im so happy the good old .222 is making a nice come back
  10. I never call with anything other than my mouth, the stalker who taught me showed me how to do it and it's such a good feeling when it works well. I managed to nail it first time, and like anything you do first time it just develops.
  11. No live trapping but I have a humane killer I can offer. It's brand new on the market.
  12. That's a lovely boy, the bucks seem to real come into a call the next month or so. Really love to see them prance around....before I give the good news of course
  13. A client we take out regularly has a pair or Zeiss ones. He reckons with out them he would never be able to shoot
  14. Don't get me wrong when they aren't causing all sorts of dramas they are beautiful intelligent animals. But control is control after all
  15. I'm not sure there were two of them...(my wife couldn't quite get the other one in shot) The hotel we stayed at offered badger watching sessions where by they leave food on the lawn and the badgers come in within feet. I really wanted to educate every one of the damage they cause....but my wife kept my on the tightest of tight leashes
  16. Love them, I suffer with cold hands make sure you get the right size though. More important than you think
  17. A little bit different, this fox I called over in the isle of weight...it was extremely friendly. If only it knew my head count.
  18. I can supply all tier one products
  19. Soldier Part time under stalker and fox controller
  20. I'm a .22-250 man personally, I used to use .243 but found too much "boom" Currently running a Archer Gen3 but soon will be running my own front mount tubed unit.
  21. Iv been shooting my pigeons in the barn at night with the night vision. We try and get this done before the cattle come in for winter
  22. It's not too bad as we don't offer public stalking trips, just clients of the master who owns the estate. When I very first started out stalking I was tasked with only managing the muntjac. As that was all o was allowed to shoot I became really obsessed with trying to build A good gene pool and get the best heads. Happy times,
