Newboy but oldshooter

Hi there

 

I'm a 55 year old country boy who has lived worked and played in rural South Scotland all my days, so far :-)

 

Keen on foxing, deer stalking, clay pigeons, driven and rough shooting and have more recently developed something of an expensive addiction to driven wild boar. So, I've got a fair selection of tools for these purposes. I've also got a couple of working terriers. One's a locally bred rough-coated Lakeland terrier (from the man at Shotts) and the other is a very leggy Plummer (don't laugh, he actually is useful) I'm a member of a couple of stalking syndicates and have sporting access to quite a lot of land around my own home too. I also do a wee bit of amateur game-keeping.

 

When I'm not doing field sports I'm keen on my vegetable gardening, beer making and old classic cars (the cars of my youth)... and making stuff.

 

I'm not a great fan of forums but this one looks pretty good.

 

All the best to you all

 

Tom.

welcome..........you are keeping busy by the sound of things..............what classic cars are you fiddling with at the moment ?

Landies and MGB's at the moment... But, in the past, I have had several different TRs, a Chevette HSR and various MK1 and MK2 Escort rally cars. I've also got a hankering after a certain very smart, stupidly low mileage, late model, Lancia Delta Integrale, belonging to a friend of mine and available to me, if I ever get around to buying it ... But I'll need to sell some stuff before I can afford it... :-)

Thanks for the welcomes guys.

 

Being new on here I'm not quite sure of the form yet.

 

I tried to post a very straight forward question in the cartridges and reloading section yesterday, asking if anyone on here had any personal experience of the 8.5x63 Werner Reb cartridge, and my post hasn't appeared... :sad1:
