    Walker,  as for the 'infertile' squirrel gene, its a step in the right direction, IF the authorities sanction it . Anything to help the Reds is good.

    It's surprising how fast these things spread. (95% of the rabbit population has disappeared from Cheshire in 5 years , due to RHD2).

    I don't like the idea of this fertility gene messing,  who is paying for it? How long before it crosses to the reds?

    Thank you for your recipe Walker.

    Am too busy to make it up presently so will supply my hungary customers neat peatnuts for the time being.

    I don't mind shelling out for the nuts and to be fair everytime I bump into the landowner in the local, he reimburses me with lashings of beer.

     A win, win situation 👍

    Let's you shoot squirrels and gets the ale in, winner winner

    Strange trailer! Fake prog maybe? 200 of them all dressed the same got in there and all filmed. Yeah right!  BS! like to see them take on some 90kg+ Plus lumps at point of slaughter.   NB

    That would be funny if the pigs savaged them. 

    When I saw the advert I couldn't believe it,  promoting breaking in, theft, intimidation crazy.

    I read in the papers there is a Scientist in Scotland (cloned dolly the sheep), who is proposing to genetically modify male grey squirrels, to breed females that are unable to reproduce.     Then release them at different locations across the country.

    Over the Christmas break , we once again visited the Wirral , taking the dogs for a walk in Eastham Country Park.

    My goodness the grey's were everywhere, hundreds of them , within feet of the public.  So I have written to the Council , pointing out the fact that the peninsular is surrounded on 3 sides by water , so there is an excellent opportunity to introduce grey squirrel control.

    I also pointed out that if Native Red Squirrels could be re introduced, there could be great tourism potential.

    I await a reply.

    I hope your not holding your breath,  but do tell us if you get a reply.

    Trigger had a bit of creep 

    n it adjusted very easily it’s spot on now only **** it to 25y so far but it’s pellet on pellet using 10.3/8.4 jsb.**** count I couldn’t tell you yet 

    I’ve sort of been looking for weeks 

    not many at all ,they’re very hit n miss by looks of it but I’ve got a good one .Cleaned barrel n it ****s great ,shroud is t the most quietist but curlers n felt have sorted that 

    The Darko mags are supposed to be good, with a look on the Agf.

    I've looked and looked at them, but I don't think they are worth £500 from what I've read. When they were first out at £350 then yes if you can sort the issues which you obviously can.

    But I keep looking.

    Now the Vulcan2 that looks something else.

    There are pages and pages on these rifles on the Agf, seems if you can fix a few bits smooth out some rough edges then they can be superb. 

    The fact there are so few for sale second hand speaks volumes.

    Cheers, I was a bit surprised they didn't touch the peanut butter.

    Got to sort it though as they are trying to get underneath a hen with chicks.

    I use peanut butter on mouse traps, catching every week,  last rat I shot stopped for melted ice cream.

    I ain't forgot just not had time, sometime this week. 

    Ha ha, like I said no rush at all.

    Had a plink today,  bought some old AADF 5.51 and some H&N extremes. Tge AA loaded ok unlike the H&N, didn't load smooth so didn't shoot nice. 

    Then did a couple of mags of accupells,  she does like them. Only 20 mtrs.

    I've said before the only person to invade the middle east and win was Genghis Khan,  any resistance was brutally wiped out, entire cities rendered to dust.

    That simply wouldn't happen in this day and age, unless someone did nuke the USA,  then all bets would be off.

    The middle east will never be beaten by bombing them from the sky, and boots on the ground means young men dying, which the tax paying public soon get sick of.

    You better believe it and I could get hooked on the smell.  With all the live traps and sites , flip tops etc I have it is necessary to mix at least 50lbs a week and the old mixer does that all in minutes.  I can only feel it is worth it because the feeders seem to go down much faster these days since the additive, fortunately resulting in more kills. 

    We need a like button, or a love it, must be costing you a fortune.
