Hyper velocity LR & subsonic magnums?
Meece replied to Dervburner's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
I'll agree with that. I've never seen any brand of high velocity that is consistently accurate. There ain't much point in having an elephant rifle but you can't hit the elephant. A 22lr is very effective and quiet when subsonic in conjunction with a silencer. If more power is required then a hornet or 22 cf. Do you have to remortgage for a box of leadless cartridges.? Ps. Blokes quite often turn up on shoots with lead less cartridges but I've never had the nerve to ask how much these leadless cartridges are to buy. I think that they are going to be the future. Ethically speaking. -
Some counties do some don't. It's not a legal thing it's just another hoop that we are being required to jump through. Of course our orgs .... basic rubbish, who state that they protect our interests are doing sweet FA about it. I was charged £30 last year but son in law has ben told that the doctor is now charging £60 !! The form is just a series of tick boxes and would take about two minutes to tick off. Total rip off. All of it.

Minor problem with that.......... there's a viral pandemic going on ....... everywhere is shut and plod is issuing £1000 fines. I don't think that they would consider touring around looking for a new pad as essential shopping even if there were any shops open. ?

Well I found cCleaner and went to play store to download it.. clang. .. the version available isn't optimised for my device.!!!! So it's as you state .... It doesn't matter how much you spend now it will be relatively old hat in 3 years. !!!

Thanks for the replies. All info gratefully received. I've used c cleaner before. The Mrs has just got a new Samsung A10 but I hate the bloody thing. It is quite heavy, thin and shiny ( slippery). On the odd times that I have held it and every time I feel like I'm fighting not to drop it like a bar of soap. Another thing that I don't like is that the edge boundary is very narrow.... the screen comes very close to the edge. When I have used it, suddenly things start happening like the camera comes on..... because I am touching unmarked areas where their are command switches. I like m

I think that me pad has a dose of the covids. It is a Samsung and has ben really good but it can't be updated and has become very sluggish. Been through the system to clear it and check for problems but I think that it's time for it to be replaced. So anyone got any recommendations or don't buy opinions. Looking for something about 7 inch screen. I'm not desparate as I've got an iMac and two laptops to use and this tab is still working albeit a bit sluggish.

Strange how so many don't seem to get with the grips of money and long term stability. Brother in law has just been issued a wedge from his mother's estate. His skank girlfriend who has previously pissed their flat up the wall and dumped him has wormed her way back in and already bought a new car on him. Still he is a grown man and a stupid one. No doubt he'll end up in the gutter somewhere pennyless. I think that they paid about 20 years on their flat and they lost the bloody lot. Indiscipline by both of them. And the penny still hasn't dropped.

Bloody cats, beyond the pale. Shoot the cats first and then the snakes. Oh dont forget to eliminate all those bloody spiders and johovas witnesses. Well you could set the dog on them . Christ Australia is a bloody dangerous place. It's a wonder children get past infancy. Train a dog to bark like buggery at them. Then go over and shoot them.! All---ll of them, take no prisioners. Not the children, well some of them. The little bastads.??
-
Well there you go. There's the green light. Kill them all. !!!! Take no prisioners...... Or destroy their breeding ground, their food, set traps. Its like ammunition reloading. It can become a specialist hobby that can be fun. Anyway we won't tell anyone.????
-
Holy moley. That's awful. Is there a way to control them. does anyone go out and actively hunt the blighters down and eliminate them. ?
-
? 3rd world eh, well we've got running water, electricity, planes, boats and all sorts of stuff. we've even got cheese slices that someone don't like. No pleasing some is there.

" OK, which one of you bastads don't like red Leicester slices then"? ??

As I wrote discussing firearms controls is a complicated and emotional subject. I hate the whole system of firearms legislation and the way that plod interprets the law and worm around the laws for their own ambitions. I hate basic because of the way that they profess to represent the sportsman /shooter but in reality do sweet FA and in a lot of cases actually go against the members interest by agreeing with anti proposals. Third world.. a definition.... Third World - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG I cannot see the UK in any way just because a few inner city k

A gentleman destined to show inspiration and duty to our nation in a time of strife. A good innings. At the going down of the sun he will be remembered.

There's no problems in discussing firearms controls ect. In some ways the uk is stricter than the U.S. but in others it is easier, like the vast majority of rifle users have silencers pretty much as standard without any problem or cost. I think that the main difference is that here you don't have the right to possess firearms. Firearms are broken down into two groups. Shotguns and firearms. There are conditions which determine if a gun is in which group. Like you can have a pump or auto with a mag cap of 3 classed as a shotgun but if the mag capacity is more then it Is claßed as a firea

Plenty of open space. Good rifle ground . Do you get many deer there.? Considering we sort of went metric in about 1970 I don't understand Fahrenheit temperatures anymore. measurement though is a mix of paces, yards and metres. It's like liquid measurement is a jumble of pints, litres, Gallons. Still we understand a muddle through.

Ok thanks. Edit... It works. Why remove the edit button.? I don't think the Mrs would be amused if I went and moved all the cutlery into a box somewhere.
-
I can't find the edit button so ....... had to quote...... the only time that I saw someone using a handgun on a shoot was when handguns had Been banned and they were Iraqis. There was boom, boom ! ... they were only shooting a 45 up at fighting ducks. Someone could have been killed. Silly beasties. It's the sort of thing that they did in Iraq. they didn't give a monkeys about if someone got hit by fall out. What happened to the edit button .?

It's strange, two of the son in laws are freaked by snakes and apart from the adder which is rare, we dont have snakes. One of them repairs machinery and once someone had dumped a dead pet anaconda into a waste recycler. The snake was massive like your thigh size. he wouldn't get anywhere near the machine.
-
P.S. don't take this wrong but does anyone ever eat snakes.? When father was up the jungle in Burma in ww2 they were hungry that they ate anything. He ate monkey, snake, iguanas. anything. They had tins of pilchards or sardines parachuted into a river but the tins had been stood out on a dock in the sun and the tins were blown out like football's. The fish was rotten but the Burmese locals loved it and our lads traded it for chickens and eggs. I remember him saying that the snake and iguana was like chicken and the monkeys were like pork.

Totally justified. Protection of an innocent hound in imminent danger from an aggressor. Nearest I ever got was a frog. It wasn't an aggressive frog but it was a noisy Ballard singer and I didn't like the song. It had to go. I had to barrel sight it because I kept missing with the scope being so close.
-
Oh yeah. I never had a hand gun but there were loads about on the ranges. It was something that I never thought about. I did have a go with one once. Some blokes made a right killing on the compensation front. It was more on the accessories than anything. Stuff like a bloke bought a plastic toy cowboy holster and that was compensated for, Big money. Lots of blokes used to pick up spent cases like 9 mm on the ranges. A bloke took a rubble sack of cases in. Some absolute scrap in there. How many you got.? 5000! Oh right well we're not counting through that lot. Paid out. I was a rif

What.; after 300 pages of mainly waffle and nonsense going round like a merry go round. Put the handbrake on this thread and reset the frame.

Where is it.? How to find and use.?

That's interesting, I'll give it a go?
