camokid Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 hi chaps i had another brief chat with the farmer on Thursday. he reckoned there was another fox visiting the lambs.. i have already taken four large dog foxes of this one 4 acre field but i said i would pop up and take a peek the next night it was worth it.. this one was in the field with the young lambs i could hear the sheep kicking up a bit and with a flick of the lamp i spotted him and took the shot at 126 yards its a shame for the young lambs and i get a feeling i have helped them out a bit this was also the first trip with my new scope its a bushell trophy xlt 3-12x56 with a illuminated dot im very impressed with it thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Essex Hunter Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Well done....what range do you think you can shoot out to with it? Any more than the 170? TEH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camokid Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Well done....what range do you think you can shoot out to with it? Any more than the 170? TEH to be honest i think the 170 on amber has a bit more throw but the crelant is just so easy to get on with.. for solo hunts i love it no wires to heavy battery and its very compact and fits like a glove to the scope plus with white light you can see so much clearer Good shot mate,l say what are the specs of the torch you use. Thanks /S its a Crelant 7G5CS 900l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
