.007 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 The reason the ir is tightened up is to show no external ir is been used, just the 850nm laser, yip you do get the odd water mark, but who gives a monkey this fox control cheers, antoni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark@mbb Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I don't no if its me but your shooting doesn't seem to be very accurate they look they are gut shot i may be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.007 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I don't no if its me but your shooting doesn't seem to be very accurate they look they are gut shot i may be wrong trust me some off these shots out beyond 200m with poly tips from a 22-250 , look on lamping foxes (facebook) and see the damage done with that round, don`t forgot also the scope is magged well up an the nv unit too, you talking 30x mag + cheers, antoni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I don't no if its me but your shooting doesn't seem to be very accurate they look they are gut shot i may be wrong that was my impression as well, and best not to mention the hedge as backstop.............. they may be long distance but it should be rare to have one get up on you rather than look almost like the norm.

Berettacocker Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Great vid, a couple of the foxes moved a last second, you had a bit of luck with them two! But another great watch, keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixhills 69 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Totally agree with Al4x that first fox you gave him a Mohican, the ammo you are using May be good but in the wrong hands it's like everything it won't work I would personally call them in further as you can't us the distance and mag as an excuse.

Me personally would rather not take the shot at a fox's rear end, either wait or go out another night. Don't get me wrong I have missed and have a few times need a 2nd shot, I have then stopped and checked zero in the daytime. sorry for my opinion if it upsets.

.007 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 well this is a good debate,these video`s are deffo graphic, show another video via a n750 or maybe a ns200 which can record also at 200-300m on a fox, , what you get with the 2 mentioned is a pair of eyes in the distance which is proper pull the trigger and hope, there`s bob hope and no hope of seeing where you hit the fox, this kit mags up to over 30x+, it`s called vermin control and one dead fox then another job done land owner one very happy chappy antoni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berettacocker Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I can't see a problem they all died pretty quick. We wouldn't be concerned if every deer we shot at ran 30 yards then rolled over! One of the foxes seemed to be hit up the side, but he expired pretty quickly. I've shot plenty of foxes and never filmed how good or bad shot placement was, they was either dead or missed!

al4x Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Come on one got up and started walking the one shot up the **** really wasn't that clean. What it shows is other than poor shot placement is that ballistic tips on **** shot foxes take a while to do the job. I shoot a lot of foxes and really don't have a problem with opportunistic Texas heart shots but I will say it shows a big difference between an 85grn soft point and what you are using. I wouldn't tolerate having ones keep getting up even though I have a hound that likes the occasional one to. As for shooting at eyes no one has accused you of it that is irrelevant, poor backstop with a hedge though is another matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berettacocker Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Foxes are fairly soft skinned animals, and 007 seems to be shooting with a good set up. I shoot mine and deer with .243 x100 grains and never hit one below the engine room. But a gut shot ballistic tip shot fox will soon expire.out and out fox shooters use high mag scopes and shoot out to 300yrds regularly so you can't always be " on target" Not many foxes run off wounded so don't see a problem!

Berettacocker Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 You're right antoni you shot well, we don't all shoot bench rest at Bisley! It's called a follow up shot, you followed up, job done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I dont see that commenting on anyone's post count has anything to do with shot placement. I shoot a fair amount, I have missed a few silly ones, the last was probably just 50yards away. Its very rare I would take a shot over 150yds, I think that most shooters on here would be similar. Maybe its the angle of the dangle that seems to show shots further back than I would normally like to take But one thing that seems to be a concern is comments from yourself, is a lack of respect for your quarry, just seems to be that it will die soon with a "plastic" tipped bullet. Your probably on about vmax or ballistic tips. They aint magic bullets, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berettacocker Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 We all strive for clean kills, but if 1 in 10 foxes take a couple of seconds to expire its no good being emotional about it, it not deliberate after all.
