chrispti Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Had a great afternoon out last weekend, land owner hinting he'd been seeing a few deer about, so popped up to have a look around for him. Most of the rough ground was covered with high grass which made things quite difficult, but still managed to get into a few Muntjac. Testament to the wildcat predator 12 moderator here... its not very often that you get the chance of a right and left on Muntjac!! Dropped the first deer, the second, stood right next to him, never battered an eyelid after the first shot !!! Rapid reload and a second shot saw the second munty down. Had a good hour playing cat and mouse with a Roe buck after, which (whilst frustrating) was extremely rewarding when I finally managed to out smart him!! .... which made for an extremely rewarding stalk. One I wont forget !!!! Final bag was 3 Muntjac and a Roe buck with a delighted land owner. Edited July 9, 2019 by chrispti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased it wasn't a wasted journey Cheers 👍 Funny how things can work out like that. A few weeks ago I got up at very silly o'clock to go stalking. One - It was raining and that was not forecast. Two - I am carrying a shoulder injury at the moment and it was hurting like hell. Three - Because I had layed on the other one all night that was hurting too. Sat on my bed arguing with myself about being a wimp etc. Decided to go anyway. Very glad I did. Got three muntjacs. Best morning stalk I have ever had.

I suppose it really is a case of "you wont shoot owt sat indoors" 👍 1 hour ago, oowee said: Very nice indeed. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nmb Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 I picked up a new 243 from Inverness in August and noticed a lot of 270’s on the racks I was told that 270 is a very popular rifle on the hills up that way. It’s seems like you fancy it so go for it as if you don’t there will always be a niggle in the back of your mind that you should have!
