I've seen some try and they get close to blowing up, great for sitting on a peg but non-ee-no for an active day

Thanks, a few of us have had some good deals in the past from JN and it used to have a great sale area on the 1st floor but the last time I went it was full of top range dog bedding and fluffy things. . . unsure what they were but will give it a look I was in Malmo for carts the other day but too expensive for a general shirt but great for Xmas pressie Another one I've used for good deals is if you sign up for the email alerts BushWear Online Store | Hunting, Stalking & Shooting UK My pal got a fab Blaser smock at the end of last season which will give the Ridgeline ones a run for their money

Some classic one liners lads, made me laugh and also gave me the critical words to search out the bargains !!!!

Probably back handers at play

Evening all, dunno which section to post this but please move if required. I'm in need of a few new checked flannel shirts for beating/picking so nothing top end but where offers a good selection, quality and value? The last ones I bought from a gamefair but the Lancs show last week was dreadful for retail and that's being polite Thanks in advance

Been thinking about this post since I first saw it and have been laughing today as was on walked up partridges today through fodder beat thinking its a country mile away from shooting in NZ. Don't get me wrong a really enjoyed my day but did consider we are just playing at it; well done again to HP

As above

The problem for me is getting my wallet out to buy steel, got some the other day and will be picking birds to shoot at more carefully. . . . they are up £20 per slab from last year locally

I know a few gents who have had their heirlooms adapted for something like Gamebore Super Steel 32grms/3’s. The old gunsmith I use has been doing the work for them at a minimal charge ( in comparison to an old English gun ). You could also use bismuth if you don't fire it often. In a nutshell anything is do-able but depends on desire vs cost

Nice one; appreciated

Proper hunting

Just did a quick search for the above and came across this silhouette quiz by the BBC ( for the purpose of this thread please forget you ever saw the bloke on the left ) and scored 4/8 so better than I thought BBC Two - Winterwatch - Test your knowledge on the UK's birds of prey

Thanks, just the kind of education I likes ( RSPB make really good cartridges as I saw a mate the other day ( normally a decent shot ) have a bad day and I was convinced he was using them ) but will look at the Collins guides, cheers

I don't think so, my vet gives me a prescription for 12 months for £8 then I buy online

I'm always seeing birds of prey but never certain which species it is apart from being a raptor, I know some are bigger, more red etc but when you only see a single bird we have nothing to compare it too. . . . so. . . . is there a quick way of ID-ing them or dismissing certain types in order to know what it is?

Bravecto is good to rid ticks/fleas but some possible nasty side effects, saying that; I still use it

Good luck to her

I have an old guy who has been shooting for a while ( must be one of the longest running members of BASC ( joined as a young boy and is 84 now )) and he recons they simply follow the grub during the year. He isn't a professional pigeoner like some on this forum but has done abit maybe some members can comment further as I personally find it interesting

As above and find yourself a seagull feather as they are stronger than most birds and hey presto you have a feather duster to get into those hard to reach places to remove debris or add a touch of oil

Thanks for that, interesting

Ditto

I've done it like this often with good painless results

I'd feel the same as you TBH but as mentioned above you might not like us telling you that you have lied but you have, it's going to get worse with gun laws, carts, and anties

Your going to need pet products so buy them from vetuk they used to offer free cover for a short period for young dogs on each purchase, just check to see if it works for you and just keep buying from them until your dog is older/wiser

Pls let us know how you get on, for crows I find the RC sipe 32gs 5's are pretty decent as I swear by Eley pigeon HV's 32/6 for flighting pigeon but don't seem to cut it for crows for whatever reason
