Neighbours must have had a good breeding season. This one was at 20yrds. I'd give up and play tiddly winks if I missed at that distance Your right...nothing wrong with the rifle. Also just got the OK on a new wood and set up pheasant feeder and hide...watch this space. Still averaging 6 a week since 1st Jan. 1435 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pigeon Shredder. Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Went out this afternoon to deal with some bunnies and after parking up and sorting out the HMR who should stick his head up, yep Mr Squirrel, 17gr of Hornardy soon put a stop to his antics for the afternoon. It also allowed me to collect a carrier bag full of hazelnuts before moving on. Total 1446. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pigeon Shredder. Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 They have stayed out of the garden today, but have been smashing the hazel trees further down and using the garden fence as their means to transfer their ill gotten good’s . I will bide my time, and the TX is awaiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
