Some brilliant photos there, i don't think i would have fancied trying to ferret those warrens, they are massive.
Not seeing any rabbits near me, normally a few about but nothing for a while now.

Not sure how i missed this?
the misses said there was something on ITV news today about saddleworth moor and showing another moor that suffered a similar fire twenty years ago, apparently there was a keeper talking about the different areas of heather and explained how they look after the ground, benefits of management etc.
Anyone see it?

If Irish and French horses cant get here its hardly our problem - its theirs! Let them worry about it
But its never going to happen, the remainers' claims are just getting more desperate, which should tell you all you need to know.
I was listening to some
plonkerspokesman on the radio this morning saying we never voted to leave, we were just asked if we would like to. The sad thing is he really believes thathands up who cares whether horses from abroad can get to the grand national???? Anyone???? Hardly the end of the world is it.

where do you shop or bank? Quite often you can get good deals through them, we've had RAC with Tesco club card points before, like most things if you just let the second year auto renew the price jumps up, we just swap about each year depending on price.

Which is what we were talking about in another thread, its alright for these organisations to decry shooting but who is publishing their bad behaviour .basc, countryside alliance, seem to write stiff letters to the times but thats about it [ i would be happy to hear the contrary]
Where is the other thread please?

Larsen trap is the way to deal with them. Although it does take away the sporting element. We run 3 on our small shoot and get around 40 each year, not many others trap around us but it does take the pressure on the nesting wild game.
My Grandmother had a pair nesting in her garden in the spring, I popped over with a trap and got both whilst we sat and had a coffee, job done.
problem in the garden is there always on the trees along the borders so can't shoot them.
what do you bait your trap with to begin?

I saw an fac air arms TX for sale recently, not sure if it was on here or elsewhere so it can be done.
9 hours ago, Walker570 said:...stu ???? is it possible to upgrade a TX200 ????? My requirement is not rabbits over 40 to50yrds but making certain I cleanly kill magpies, barn pigeons and tree rats out to 40yrds.
I feel that sometimes I need just that bit extra to do the job properly. I have a TX200in 177 which I enjoy but if I could up the power to 18-19lbs AND still retain the accuracy it would be very useful. I have to admit I have always thought that the 12ftlb limit was a bit stupid ..... whoever thought that one up didn't use an air rifle much if at all for vermin shooting.
Certainly if they decide to license air rifles then we should all lobby for the limit to be removed.

another way of looking at it is I've got a lot of my old fellas diaries which he always filled in when he'd been fishing, i don't think it would be the same if it was digital although pictures would be nice.

Think he needs a new doctor mate.

err don't shoot the wing mirror ⬆⬆⬆

loads everywhere round me, thinking of a Larsen trap for the garden next year.
-
are you sure its not your knee squeaking? Turn up the radio ?
Or challenge Ditchy to cure it, a few hints should have him dreaming about it, he'll probably end up asking to fix it because he can't get it out of his head.

the pine wood we shoot was like this a month ago, needles and cones everywhere, and that was my thought autumn has come early. This is in a damp area as well so i imagine higher places are really bad.

Manufacturing is not just about machining tolerances. Good design is also crucial and manufacturing exonomy can encourange the use of designs that are designed to be made cheaply, not used effectively. I have just done a review that was not very complimentary on exactly this topic but then again of course, we reviewers always lie dont we???
Actually a lot of the problem is shooters target looks ahead of functionality and ergonomics. Stocks made cheaply on poor designs can destroy otherwise capable mechanics of the gun because the stock is the bridge from human to machine
well you've peaked my interest although I'm off to bed. I'm used to making things to very tight tolerances but it still surprises me how often people say there having trouble with new guns these days, not sure if its down to poor manufacturing or poor assembly or because things are being done abroad, is this generally just air guns or are CF rifles affected as well?

After back to back testing a few FAC airguns recently, the extra money spent is generally VERY well worth it.
Now now, that simply won't sufice. Let's have some details please, such a tease.

only saw it on the news last week? But they showed the F35s arriving in formation from America, only four or five but the looked the business.
And saw a program Britain from the air? They went up in a spitfire and the presenter who can fly got to take the controls, he was a bit happy, also showed a very big airship which i didn't know they were still making.

I was expecting this, thought there would be quite a few about but although we have had a few youngsters were hardly seeing anything, feeders untouched and the few we do see are up in the canopy out of the way.
