sussex lad Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Fitted my new neoprene moderator cover tonite so decided to give it a field trial. So i pops up to a local shoot to see if Charlies about, i decided to take some bait along to try something different so along came the tinned tuna No sooner had walked it 150 yards out and returned to the Landy got my gun out ,wired up the lamp ,cocked it and switched the lamp on and ****** me there's one at the tuna already . So leans across the bonnet and number 1's shes down for the count 30 mins later after a coffee and a quick stretch of the old leg's i bring the dimer on the lamp slowly up on the tuna to see number 2 filling his face .This time as i increase the brightness he legs it only to stop about 60yards further on and sits down to look at me Squeeze ,bang and wallop job done on number 2 Twenty Min's later I'm at home with beer righting this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussex lad Posted September 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Well done SL the lamp looks like the one i have but on my 223 cannot see anything for the glare from mod has the cover stopped that ? Never really had that problem on the AR, it has a high top receiver which means that when mounted the scope is just over 3 1/2" from the center of the bore. However i think the cover may help it has quite a matt finish to it,or as i had to do on my .17hmr a piece of inner tube Got some funny looks in Halfrauds though when i asked for one to fit this as i held out the T8 Good man, glad you eventually got it on and had sucsess. Tuna works great , try a bucket full that has been sittiing their with the lid on for a week. Works a treat too. Great stuff. Frank. I couldn't believe how quick they were onto it Definitely going to be using that again Cheers for the tip Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
