  2. Going buy an old 22 to do up he said! Only going buy 200 rounds he said! 600 rounds later, A-tec wave mod and a new cz 457 my wallet goes into meltdown!! What a nice little rifle though. Trigger is adjustable for weight, overtravel and sear engagement. 60°bolt. Whacking good pin strike and very accurate. Shoots CCI, Federal, Eley and Winchester to similar zero. HV ammunition just shoots a little higher. A well made solid rifle, just what one can expect from CZ. The pigeon were taken with shorts by S&B. The squirrel by the way was carrying an airgun

  4. Well I'm amazed by this little 457. I was shooting shotshell cases at 100 paces with it off hand. I used a few ammo types including Remington yellow jackets and they all connected with regularity. I took a grand walk and shot nothing but wow, I stumbled on a Fallow buck. It was bedded just below me. I only had to wait five minutes for the swirling wind and he stood up and stood broadside for 60+seconds. It would of made a simple shot at less than 50yds! Don't you just love this time of year.

  5. Back at the place I was at last week last night. I tried one place which drew a blank and went up on the hill. Flicked the light on and there were eyes in amongst the sheep. Couldn’t be sure at first and with my fumbling to get the filter off, by the time the white light hit the field, it had gone a good hundred yards away and kept going. I always make sure at what I’m shooting before firing and have lost a few over the years doing so! Didn’t help that the farmer pointed out a new cat in the yard last week, just planted a bit of doubt in my mind. Anyway, this young dog fox played ball, coming

  8. We also had a local butcher that would actually buy anything you could get to the back door, never tested it but he would say if you can get a cow here with out being seen I,ll buy it ?????? sad story the game dealer that used to buy all the good unmarked meat is now a fishmongers and recently he had to shut down because of protests outside his shop because he was selling live signal crayfish what a dramatic change in under 50 years, we need to go back to a time of struggling and hardship before anything will change ??maybe if this virus and it’s remedy cause enough damage to modern life we ca

  9. Been itching to get out, especially after reading some of the write-ups on here lately . Ventured over to the horse paddocks permission after tea this evening. Took the hw100 .177 with the Night-Watch gen 2 n/v and the CRS n/v rangefinder clamped on the top. The journey took about half an hour and i arrived at 9.30.Got out the car, grabbed me gear and scanned the field from the 5 bar gate, not one eye shine. Climbed the gate and made my way further into the field. Scanned the field again and still no eye shine, wait, see what looked like rabbit features. That could only mean one thing

  18. They are both young dogs, accidental mating, lads having them know the score,they will be getting used for a bit of ratting, bushing for the lurchers and the catty, odd dig, grand parents both sides were flat out digging dogs? Will make £100 on the whole litter to cover the cost of docking and feeding, can't be fairer than that, going to tidy lads? Grandparents....

  23. Phil, when I was young and dafter I thought bigger is better. Well in many ways it is but also in many ways unneccesary. Ok a 223 will reach 300yds but it gets stressful, if you miss one, and you will, be it via an obstacle or human error you know you have most definitely educated Charlie. I found most my fox's in my 20's were up to 200yds with a few 300+. There were some missed ones to. As time went by I just found most were shot sub 100yds. I had a few slots on my license and usually a hornet was present. It accounted for just as many as the larger rifles I had. It was at one

  25. Back in the 80s I would have sold that lot by lunch, do zoo,s and wildlife parks not still buy them ? can remember my escort mk2 ex AA van driving home many a night full up to the roof with anything from deer to trout never took long to sell any of it, trout used to bump out at a £1 each round the pubs and on a few occasions have had to give plod a bit of game when pulled over, more likely to have farmers or keepers smashing up your motor than get nicked back then, I also used to go on the train with my dogs and my catch,s this is me walking out with my pack probably 40ish years ago a £25 fox

  29. I was talking to a mate this aft that uses a 6.5creedmore for his foxing but I knew he’d bought a 17 hornet, asked him how he’s getting on with it and his face started beaming, he loves it and has had a fair few foxes with it at decent ranges.. he’s only using 20gn bullets as well wich is mint considering it’s a windy old hole we live in! on subject of sd’s new .22 I had hold of one the other week, couldn’t believe how well made it was for the price, nice tight bit of kit?

Hence Kevlar.... Or was it 2 of my kids are kevin and Laura..... Nah... It was the 1st one

  40. I agree that if people are getting triple figures then there is a huge rabbit problem. These were apparantley ferrets and lamped, not shot. If I had a permission where I got 240 rabbits I wouldn't need to tell anyone, my closest hunting mates would be there anyway. I also know if I had a perm where I got 240 I would be at it hard untill I was getting 10s/20s so the land owner saw a dramatic decrease yet still keeping some sport on.

  41. Lots of confusion about the Antipodean herding breeds...? Folk (even today) still get confused twixt Black and Tan, Huntaways and Kelpies....different dogs, specifically bred for different tasks... Its a shame that when the Collie lurcher boom was at its height, in the 1990's ,. that the wordsmiths of that time did not seek to offer some education and information regarding all the various pastoral breeds...I suppose on reflection,..it did not suit their needs,...and they did not possess the required practical knowledge, to pass such valuable data on....? Luckily, there are now p
