    I have for many years had a passion for different types of fishing, I am a sea angling coach and a casting instructor for one of the magazines. I love being on the water and over the years owned a number of boats from kayaks, speed boats, sailing craft, 30' fishing boats but I always come back to inflatable boats and currently own a RIB for family fun and fishing. This is my friend giving it a test run when I first bought it Not airgun I know but a keen clay shooter along with my wife and just love it. Phil

    It only takes that split second Jimmy..................................

    Very light rain but patchy, some heavy rain this afternoon but right here is not a good guide as I am next to the sea.....well river humber where the tide can and often does affect the wind which in turn can simply move clouds away or of course bring them in. Rain forcast in Simon's area about 3pm according to BBC Weather so fingers crossed Jimmy. Phil

    Yep, got it mate thank you and one from Simon. I know where he lives as we pass his house or road every time we go to Suffolk but didn't know until I saw the address. I will aim to get there around 10-10.30 so you have a bit of time to chat before I get there. Looking forward to seeing you both..................................pray to the weather gods, I think we might need a bit of luck there. I will PM you my mobile if any problems Jimmy. Phil

    You can buy filters from ebay which is far cheaper than buying a monitor with brightness controls. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151007461217?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Phil

    Great to see our kids sharing our sport, make the most of it until clothes, music and boys become more fun. Well done to both of you. Phil

    They used to make a double case but even if you buy two, they are well priced and offer superb protection. I used to buy their stuff at trade, very good gear. Phil

    Hmmm sounds like a vague plan coming together, time to dig out my carp bivvy. Phil

    shhh, my HW100 will hear you and be deeply offended

    Are you guys going to Si and Davy's shoot.

    I will not swear to it but I heard that you will have to get a temporary visitors ticket to take your gun but you know as well as I do that it is unlikely you would have a problem but a phone call to the police is the easiest way forward in future. Phil

    Thanks Si, I had no idea about your project but nevertheless a cracking offer from both you and Jimmy, well done gentlemen. Phil

    Now thats what I am talking about.....................serious nutssss Phil

    This should prove to be an interesting project Si but I think I must have missed something, what prize ??? Phil

    I have been carefully watching the activity from the pigeon, well I would if any turned up but I gave it a couple of hours but apart from the odd crow well out of range, nothing to be seen. A change of plan was called for so I went round to the warren pasture where there is a deep valley lined with trees which had quite a number of mixed corvids resting in the trees. I put up around 20 or 30 crows as I worked my way round the track. The sun was now taking the temperature way up and I assume the crows were simply staying out of the heat. Once settled under a large tree giving me some sh

    I tried the pellet on the turret test, the super glue seemed to keep it in place very well.........that is about the only way it would stay on the turret. I did about a dozen shots, pellets all over the place so I think we can say it is not as smooth as it could be. Phl

    I will be interested to see the results Mark because I intend building two natural hides on my perm, one for the bunnies and one for crows/pigeon, so a few photo's may well be useful right now. Phil

    John I hate to say this but I remember them when they hit the shops the first time around, I wish I didn't but no escaping the fact I do. Phil

    Teamwork, you get the meat and mom does the cooking, sounds like a good plan to me. Phil
  20. philpot
    I will get you those mate with pleasure. Is this where you say..............you should have bought a Prosport.....................I may come to that decision and if I really get into the springer...............I may NEED to buy one at some stage. Need a .22 first though. Phil

    You can be a judge on mine then Jimmy when we meet to see if Sean can make it better although I'm not saying it is bad but I don't have anything to compare it with. I know there is a guy on another forum who does some wonderful things with TX and Prosport according to some feedback I had but it is difficult to know if my TX is as good as it gets. We will see Jimmy. Phil

    I think everyone check zero before a shooting session and make adjustment as required. I have often thought the movement in transit can cause a shift. Phil
  23. philpot
    So are we going to see a photo of the new hide yet Mark, I assume this is the one you showed a photo of...................or did not show a photo of in a previous post. Phil
  24. philpot
    They have a lot of fans on another forum and I have just tried some, seem spot on on a brief test with the pellets given to me. I am going to get some along with express and have both zero values on the scope. Certainly hit bloody hard Si. Phil
