  1. Hmm ,Waitrose the place Steven Fry says keeps the riff raff out of Sainsbury,s
  2. We love Pheasant Fahjita,s marinade for 2 hours and get it in the pan ,dollop of sour cream and chives job done .Ironic talking to a Latvian friend at work loves meat/poultry/venison etc but couldnt shoot anything to eat .She Grew up on a farm so as a girl piglets,chickens etc had names till gran did the required and Sunday dinner was dished up. The modern problem that cow in the field isnt dinner ,dinner comes on a polystyrene tray from Tesco,s not the local woods fresh from my butcher,s block People are too detached from their food imho atb
  3. Already peeing down sideways where i,m going at the weekend and no its not Wales but the amount of water theyre might be Whales
  4. Got the Lidl one similar price makes oil change a doddle ,just a buggaration the oil filter is an upside down one so changing that is mess a plenty
  5. Hell of a frost forming here now,plenty of birds herabouts looks like its going to be a good season
  6. Your lucky try working with vodka loving deadbeats ,beautiful day and ive got to go around the wrekin to get there as we have more river than roads hereabouts .Trent,Dove,Derwent all now on the roads in various places .Still at least 1 of us is out there.Roll on Friday get my ass to Sussex for the Fallow cull
  7. Yep thats them ,well if they say 5.52 some strange man must have measured them with a Vernier or AA provide a spec sheet to the shop we mere mortals <customers> dont get to see .But my tin is identical and the same so yes they fit snug and give a nice consistant aim point atb
  8. Should be no problem ,ive tried 5 different pellets,some cheapp n nasty some decent and the size variation is a joke ,all claim .22 but some fall out <smk copper> and some need a shove Fields and H n N and even Milbro Caladonian .The fields are labled 16gr but only 5.5 no mention of 5.51 or 5.52 but are a tight snug fit .But it is an old tin i was given so free is the best price imho . Trial and error ,go on ebay <boo hiss ,grr i know> and buy a few trial packs and see how you fare .Everyone has a favourite pellet but all rifles are different so knock a few beers cans down,p
  9. Standard, not fitted a kit ,bought new .No louder than my supersport in.22 .Would benefit from a tune and polish to smooth the noise down but don't want to throw it over 12lb,ft so I'm waiting . Currently on 570 pellets through and will have a look see after 1000 have been down the barell. Pellets are .22 Aa fields but can tell you the weight when I get home from work atb
  10. Yes switched to AA fields about 2 weeks ago to try and very happy with them.H n N are fine but the fields I was given and seem more consistent imho. Yes they're rated to 12lb,ft abroad. The Remington can be Tinbum tuned then will well do over 12lb,ft .the guy I bought it from warned me to recover chrono after a 1000 pellets as it could go over with the right pellet anyway Atb
  11. Got the Remington express in .22 ,gives 11.7lbs foot all day with AAfields ,claims 12lbft on the box but 11.7 is fine for hunting and plinking too .Nice chinese made "merican" airrifle ,loverly stock ,fits nice but the fake silencer doesnt do squat imho . The HW 99 same power for a little bit more dosh but 50 in my pocket is quite a lot of pellets atb
  12. The bag is 2nd to the day imho, friends banter and laughter .Main thing is you enjoyed it Stav atb
  13. Well done S/D some serious squizzers boshed ,and stopped buying winnie subs 4 or 5 ok then wing/zing a high velocity sub will say hello ,after 2 boxes doing this wery of using them. Good luck Saturday Stav ,hell of a first day for you forecast is a bit blustery so it,s hip flasks and big coats all round
  14. Ar you get 4 more pixels for your extra 40 pounds ,other wise i think theyre all generically the same just price is the big variety .The gearbest one doesnt talk to mobile either but you lock it out with a pin for added security atb
  15. Here you go it claims to be a Fleureon and last Christmas was £26 delivered
  16. Looks like mine from gearbest ,a chinese mega store ,£26 will put a piccie up later .Picture quality is fine ,easy to secure and takes a lorra lorra batteries ,mine came with the memory card which was a nasty so put a tescos 1 in its place atb
  17. You dont normally miss ,unless its a spectral fox fitted with a "klingon cloaking device "
  18. It was like a catchup day for all ,didnt get going till 10,30 ish by choice .Out of 60,ish birds put up in the 4 hours we were out the 5 guns bagged 17 which was fine by everyone .Its an informal day and much ,craic and banter with a great "lunch" provided by us all.Pheasant sausage rolls and meatballs ,homemade jams ,chillies,cheese board and some nice soft breads. We all had a good laugh and giggle and renewed old friendships .The bag didnt matter ,its normally only around 30 birds anyhow ,and we all went home smilling
  19. Nah Klingon cloaking device ,and back up from the mission impossible team ,that fox is like Capt Ahab,s white whale for S/D
  20. I can recommend the following places ,KFC and Burger king ,and Mcdonalds if you want a very expensive divorce .But if you want a "keeper" you have to suffer overpriced n poorly serviced posh places .Allow the price of a decent scope or shooting jacket and you,l be in good books but skint ,brownie points allow nights on the bunnies and foxes but once a year is not enough . Trouble is people say the most expensive purchase is your house ,no it isnt ,its the item that picks the decor ,scatters cushions everywhere ,and leaves coloured flipping pebbles in silly jars and saucers all over the ho
  21. Well first day for us Tomorow ,beater not a shooter <too skint >but a brace ,a nice snap and a beaters day cant be bad .Get to keep the vermin down too .Looking forward too it ,Has it really been 9 months already . And yes Stav woman like going out with their other half ,something called being a couple or summatt along those lines ,il google it if i were you .Dangerous creatures when left to think for themselves
  22. If you put hw 97 silencer kit in on ebay youl see its a piece of green nylon scourere and some washers ,just something to absorbe the sound so Si,s tip saves you a few pounds . By packing the body of the not silencer with foam your reducing the noise out the end so less to scare away the rats,and as Balaur says let them get use to the light and theyre yours for the taking as they dont associate light with danger atb
  23. Had a Much more pricey call me dave unit ,but couldnt get on with a face full of tv image and glare ,some do find them fine depends on you .Got a Pard 007 ,different league ,but try the lamp on your mrs pr900 much quieter than the Hw ,imho . With the ten shot mag in you should clean up or try the LED ,idea just requires patience and a flask of coffee as i defrosted my windscreen at 5am
  24. Got to have clean seaks Rez ,none of that red stuff spoiling your image Put the light on about an hour or 2 before shooting so they get used to it and feel "safe" around it ,and then pop ,the red light is easier for you to keep your nightvision .An on off white light messes your eyesight as it takes about 30 mins to get "night eyes" atb
  25. This sort of thing ,couple of quid from Wilko,s Ikea atb
