karlzed Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) First of about me, as I am new to this forum. I am an Aussie living in Sweden, I work from home remotely for a UK company. So every day I need to think what I am going to have for lunch. So Yesterday morning at 6.30am, inspired by a recipe I saw in this forum (Wood Pigeon Stroganoff), I shot a Wood Pigeon, At 1.30 pm I was eating it for lunch, great recipe, Thanks to Henry D. The rifle is a FX 500 FAC .25. The onions, peppers and pigeon were all sourced from my garden, Gotta love nature’s bounty!

Lampwick Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Looks great! Welcome to the forum! Now here's a tip. Get yourself one of those lovely Swedish blondes, she can focus on what your having for lunch and you can play with your FX! Hooroo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlzed Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 That’s the whole reason I moved to Sweden, I met my wife years ago in London she was a blonde Swedish au pair working for a Swedish family, we married, had kids and moved to Sweden, not necessarily in that order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any spare out there? Mines getting a few miles on the clock! Do you go stalking too? (I do mean deer etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlzed Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Apparently the ratio here is like 2 girls to very guy, so I reckon there should be a few knocking about. I plan on stalking deer this year, mainly birds at the moment, I need to get a Class 1 weapon so am looking at a Browning Bar Composite in 30-06 cal. Got an invite to hunt wild boar, so looking forward to that. I have just bought a Weatherby SA-08 upland model 12/76 and it take about 6 week for the license to come through from the police, so maybe able to use that with buckshot on roe deer. . My immediate plans are to hunt pheasant, grouse and the one I am really after Capercaillie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
