pete k Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 (edited) merry arms have made a cartridge for 120 yards called tirextreme , and i have shot clays a long way out with them and completley dusting them , the way i see it is it all comes down to your abilitys and gun set up . pete Edited November 26, 2005 by pete k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invector Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Pete K I hope you aren`t advocating the use of these so called extreme cartridges for shooting wood pigeons, or any other live creature, at such excessive ranges?? Shooting inanimate clay targets, with small shot, is all well and good but their use in live bird shooting, at such ranges, is to be deplored!! This has nothing at all to do with your ability, or the set up of the gun. Respect for your quarry is what it is all about and dusting clays is just a game, with no pain involved, except when you miss!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn9914 Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 rruk in the past when i have been on large fields and i know the birds are going to land on the other side of the field i have set my magnet up with carrier bags on it and this keeps the birds of that side of the field i have had a few good days using this method. i always find taking a few more minutes to set up and i mean set up correctly is often the best way :blink: out of interest where are you in staffs as i am also in staffs (you can pm me this info if you like) cheers shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invector Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I know you won`t mind me asking Double H, but why did you change your name? I assume it means catamongthepigeons?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 Invector, I changed my name and Avatar because of all of the proposals I was getting because of my mugshot - I was amazed how many lonely hearts out there were looking for the rugged outdoor type like me - it was becoming embarrasing..!! I tried to think of a catchy username, and Cat Among The Pigeons came to mind, obviously too long, so I shortened it to Catamong. But don't fret, it's still the same old me, I'll continue to poke fun at those who want to know how to shoot muntjac with airguns, or reckon it's OK to wait until a going away bird is 80 yards away before shooting at it..!!

invector Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 You mean you can`t shoot muntjac with an air rifle? I read somewhere that 80 yard pigeons are easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Invector, It's surprising what even us Old'uns can learn on this forum........the old adage "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" certainly doesn't apply...!!!!
