  1. Rear springs replaced under warranty at 45K; clutch burnt out at 65K; cylinder head gasket blew at 90k.................. Despite that, I like mine Jim
  2. A friend was along to take some pictures of the kids with her 'professional' hat on - she had a wee bit of time to spare before they got back from school so took some of the dogs and pups as well. It's far, far better than anything we've managed.................. http://s581.photobucket.com/albums/ss260/Njugglebreck/Frances%20Puppy%20Pics/ Jim

    ..... until you bottom it out - most embarrassing
  5. +1 I like my one Double trigger? gives you the best of both worlds Jim
  6. use BB's for the geese - they'll be decoyed?
  7. Isn't this getting a bit silly? The advice the OP was given was the same advice I'd give anyone, over the phone or not. Assuming it's not a wind up (and I have no reason to believe it is), we had a question about how best to deal with an injured bull. The size doesn't matter; people have been killed by cows as well as bulls. Any animal that size deserves some respect. What matters is the welfare of the animal in question. There is a lot more leeway with a 12b than with a captive bolt. A small margin of error with a bolt can lead to a non effective stun. The same margin with a shotgun won't make a blind bit of difference. At the very least the animal would be rendered insensible? Admittedly, bulls can be a problem - I have had one that took 3 shots with the .32 before I was satisfied - I was wishing I had the 10b with me!! I'm a vet in mixed practice as well as supervising in an abattoir, so I would like to think that I know what I'm on about?? Jim

  9. There shouldn't be any mess ? - all the shot ends up down the neck
  10. Is this from personal experience, Bart? if thats the case, then your aim was wrong I would normally use 0.32 S&W long, but have shot cattle with a 12 before. Jim
  11. 12 will be fine - 4,5 or 6 shot Acts almost as a slug at that range Jim
  12. :blink: Thats a very good post there folks!! I'll be asking questions on it later. Still a very slight risk of incontinence, and remember, as soon as they've been spayed they require about 30% less calories. We can only advise -but we do see a lot more female dogs then most people, and we're not all money grabbing #########'s, not all the time anyway :blink: Jim
