  1. Cheers mate It's a shame there's no pictures but, as already said, that's how it goes sometimes
  2. Cheers mate - we both enjoyed it. A long time ago, when I was around 8yrs old, my Grandad decided to teach me to not worry about the dark. We went off to the woods one night, got settled in by a tree on the edge of the wood and, stayed there for a while. After a while, the wildlife started moving again. It didn't have a clue that we were there. ..... I'm always grateful for his lessons and, I'll never forget them
  3. Very true mate - the TVs mostly bollocks anyway. I can't sit and watch soaps or transsexuals giving people make overs I saw the picture of your lad with the Wildcat - it suits him .......Always good to see the next generation of hunters coming up
  4. Cheers Ant, Very true mate - I've always said that strange things can happen when out hunting - especially at night I think that's part of the reason that I like it so much - you never know what might happen
  5. We went up to the manor house permission last night........ We did the usual and had a check round the chicken sheds and grain silos for rats first but, there was nothing moving at all. Then we bumped into one of the lads that lives there. He was out with his shotgun and torch looking for the fox that dug its way into a chicken shed and killed 7 chickens earlier in the day. As we were stood there talking, we heard some sort of aircraft coming from the direction of one of the woods. It was getting louder and louder until it appeared - it looked like a C130. It was big and had 4
  6. It does seem to like a soft lead diablo Give Falcon Accuracy Plus a whirl - I reckon you might get even better results
  7. I always found his antics entertaining but, this is just dopey - he can call himself what ever he wants, it won't change what he is. He should be proud of his heritage.
  8. I can only agree with the comments above Nelly At the moment I'm using a 3-9x40 and a 3-9x50 - I generally keep these at x7 mag. I'm also using a 4-14x44 and a 3-12x50 - these are usually on x10 mag. It might sound silly but, I like to have a little more than the mag that I use because I don't like the idea of the magnification ring turned right up to the max. I'm not very technical but, my eyes are shite so, it takes me a while to set my kit up how I like it but, once I have, I can easily see targets at 58yrds at the range on x7 mag. ....... I can't hit the fuckers but, I ca
  9. Excellent result Personally, I like that they put that sort of scum in a place with a lot of fathers that can be prone to violence. I wonder how long he was looking over his shoulder in fear before they got him
  10. I've got 3 that I'm pleased to have so, I'm not actively looking for more at the moment but, I wouldn't pass on another if it fell into my lap. I get on well with all of the land owners and, they're generally happy for me to come and go as I please. However, I always let them know in advance when I'll be there and, I give them an update afterwards. The rugby club is the only one that really ever pressed for progress. It's a 30 odd acre site with a few other sports and social clubs. My permission was granted by the committee and, they're strict with the times that I can shoot. .....t
  11. That's the spirit VM ....... you'll have your FAC in no time I'm a good boy now Si ....... them fecking beer goggles got me into some right adventures when I was younger
  12. Hmm, let me think ......... 6 pints
  13. I can't seem to use scoped NV - they make me feel dizzy. I tried that posh bit of kit that Davids got - it was really nice and clear, just not for me. I like the add on kits with a little screen - I think they're a kind of half way house between lamping and scoped NV systems. It works for me
  14. I just found a 5ltr keg of Hobgoblin beer and some chocolate coated brazil nuts in the cupboard Because of how my missus puts stuff away for Christmas, I'll be finding bits like this for weeks Surely I'm not the only one ..............
  15. whats up with them rabid?!Just not grouping as I would like, certainly not a patch on my regal, yet, am still leading them in.mine grouped ok but not great at fist so i did a couple of pull throughs, which improved the group and yesterday i moved the photon back for better eye relief ...so i had to re zero and the groups are full mag through the same hole but its had nearly two tins of sovereign's through it since! I have cleaned and cleaned the barrel to 'within an inch of its life' as bry would say, I have not put anywhere near that through mine yet, not managed a half decent day with no wi
  16. Well, it's a bit different to the usual Ausie coming over here nicking the bar jobs
  17. 'Little stinker' Welcome aboard Jack
  18. Looks like 2 good h&l shots Rez Still with the Rapid though mate ........ I've been waiting ages for a hunting post with that sexy HM
  19. I hope she's reading this. Can you imagine if she shows VM screenshots of this this thread when she comes round He might actually have to take one for the team
  20. Always good to see them Magpies toes up Good to see Kaiser out
  21. This'll give you some idea of the size of target that we have to hit. A few millimetres can make the difference between a nice clean kill and a screamer.
  22. Ok, I'll stick my 2 pence worth in......... Now, I don't meant to teach you how to suck eggs but, I think you're looking at it wrong. Different/better kit won't give you better results - that will only come with time and lots of practice. (Have a read through the hunting section) Air rifle hunting isn't just about shooting - you need to learn fieldcraft, your preys anatomy, your preys habbits. You also need to know your kit - what's the best pellet for your rifle? What are it's impact points at various ranges? How is the windage affected at different ranges? Are you consistent with yo
  23. The parents are complete f***ing morons - they had a child to protect yet, they allowed that potential danger in. If that was my daughter, I'd torture that rapist for days before I bury him. Stuff like this makes my blood boil.
