  1. They don't have any idea how beneficial snares are when controlling problems with rabbits or foxes..... Let the blind morons get on with it, it would be a sad loss to see one of the oldest methods of hunting lost for ever within the UK... People will still carry on, as they do with whatever else they decide to ban the next week or the week after... I say end the oil age, bring on a mad max world, see how long these lettuce munching do gooders survive.... who the hell sanctions all these laws, some idiot townies and city dwellers who never set foot in the countryside, with a degree earned in a
  2. Personally I'm amazed at how much time some people have, lifes hectic enough with jobs, family, days out, etc, hunting, living without posting absolute crap on the internet, facebook amazes me too, with all this farmville, games, what your doing etc burping, farting, just woke up, ....fair enough in moderation, but theres people out there with some very sad lives, they need to get out see the world, or if there out of work educate themselves for the better and get a job worth doing...Life is way to short, to be wasted, doing nothing and dying... Back to the site, people should talk about
  3. Has now joined the airgunners again with some lead plinkers...

  4. Plenty of bunnies to feed the belly there... Get them while you can, before spring arrives with vengeance, I've been digging litters out in a few spots, but need to get the remaining spost cleared this fortnight, to keep them down..
  5. Depends what your lamping, a lightforce lance or laserlight is more than suitable for rabbiting... for foxes your better off with the 100watt bulbs.
  6. How do you tell what model the Weihrauch HW100's are , I've just got a rifle off a mate and I'm not sure if its a mk1 or mk2 , can someone tell me how to identify the models and what the changes were on the newer ones... it just says HW100 sporter its the standard thumbhole version so is probably an original model..
  7. I have a harkila high bird, they've stopped producing them now, but you might get a bargain if you look around, well put together.. I bought mine from swillington shooting supplies. Ideal for your needs, buy musto, schoffel, barbour,harkila etc you won't go far wrong. http://www.william-p...gh-Bird-Jacket/
  8. I was planning on using DHL .
  9. Whats the best method of posting an airgun ??? I'm after having two rifles and bottle sent my way, is there a preferred postage service... Cheers lads
  10. Numbers are the same around me, weather or myxy hasn't affected them.... I've notice a lot more fat on the rabbits and deer when gutting them this winter than normal though... All nice big and healthy.
  11. There used all over the country like this, especially by the likes of yourself working on moor and upland for vermin like you say stoats/weasels primarily.... Stick a few guide sticks either side to satisfy the tunnel inspection brigade..
  12. Cut some ash and make your own pegs, its really easy, free and simple...
  13. I use a bulldog rabbiting spade, excellent little grafts..
  14. Another Nugget Removed... Please report these idiots using the report post option and I'll get them banned if possible.... They offer nothing to the forum or hunting in any form.
  15. Excellent stuff Steve, great your helping youngsters out, more like yourself would do the sport a world of good...
  16. Shot lots of roe with 58grain vmax chest shots... With correct placement, minimal wastage and they all dropped like stones.....Legs, saddle, kneck all spot on...
  17. Getting some good numbers steve, great work Much digging involved?
  18. I remember seeing some years ago at pegandguns more or less identical he'd made, I think moley made them as well...Theres many shown in various old trap books similar..
  19. I've used anything from 55gr to 100grain... Whatever suits yourself, they all drop them cleanly, with clean chest shots.
  20. i now have to constantly have one eye over my shoulder because of some idiot's who just want to kill for killings sake in the laziest way possible...hardly hunting is it Yes they are doing more damage than ever, its going to spoil a lot of GENUINE peoples chances of getting permission with these idiots driving all over crop around the country .....landowners are getting mega cautious already, everywheres blocked up
  21. Agree rolfe, if it works use it,... I've snared rabbits in fox snares set 10" off the floor with no long grass around... I've seen rabbits jump straight through fence snares, pegangun recorded this happening also... Nothing is truely set in stone...
  22. What one would you recomend and what advantages would it have over a pulsar.Thanks for any advice. Better clarity, resolution, increase of range.. These are not bad, yes more money, but much better.. http://www.nvscopes.com/night%20vision%20scope%20Gen2%20SM3S2%20HTH%20731.html
  23. Anyone know of any cheap suppliers of BF Mud's online ?
  24. Yes there very effective.. But it's the initial cost of putting In rabbit mesh fencing.. So once you add up fencing cost and traps it's expensive for a farmer. Also wooded area's can need repairs more often due to fallen branches and tree's. There's an area next to a farm house tried ferreting yesterday.. Absolute nightmare with an old wall under it hardcore, bushes, etc favour being on my side it was stock fenced, so I decided to snare it... Starting to sicken myself lol . I can't even look at the rabbit casserole downstairs !! Did you use fence snares???? I have got a bit bet
