Computer and network surveillance programs are widespread today, and almost all Internet traffic is or could potentially be monitored for clues to illegal activity.Surveillance is very useful to governments and law enforcement to maintain social control, recognize and monitor threats, and prevent/investigate criminal activity. With the advent of programs such as the Total Information Awareness program, technologies such as high speed surveillance computers and biometrics software, and laws such as the Communications Assistance For Law Enforcement Act, governments now possess an unprecedented a

Any Suggestions For A Cqb Scope For A .22Lr Hk416 D10Rs
Deker replied to craigzw's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
I am totally with that, BUT, it is a free world. For Target work there are much better, and for field work there are much better, and on a Technical note, I believe these Rambo lookalikes are designed to work with HV .22lr, which is not the best plan for Close range Pest Control as alluded to. -
Who knows but on a fleece probably Fabsil or the like!

I think the point with termination is provide certainty. Other wise if you got stopped by the police, the landowner could say I saw you last night and told you I'd terminated the permission. I think the point in specifying it to be in writing and by registered post is to prevent exactly that type of situation occuring as the terminations isn't valid unless its in writing and has been sent by registered post. My point in adding 7 days notice is to strenghten that further and reduce any possibility of it being withdrawn without you having read the delivered notice. Like I said, you are thinking

Informing Fao Of Intention To Reload

Yes,.....lets not get into the V-Max and A-Max debate. -
You don't need a sharp axe to split wood as shown, a quite blunt one will work well, the axe is a wood splitter, has a wide blade and is heavy, it is designed to split wood as shown and does it with minimum effort, it isn't a cutting/felling axe! ATB!
-
You're welcome but it's not mine. It's a combination of several on here. Actually the more I think about it the more sense there is in altering the termination wording to: "This authority remains in force until terminated by myself or appointed agent by giving 7 days notice in Writing using Registered Post" (words in italics only to highlight the change). I don't know what others think here as to whether or not this would be acceptable to landowners but the danger I see is that without the above, what happens if the post arrives one day and you don't get chance to read it and go

Very possibly and it will help a bit, but as he pointed out it is a Splitting Axe, heavy and wide, doesn't need to be particularly sharp................ and a well cut easy to split log too!

Good entertainment but painful for Arsenal.

Clever and simple. :thumbs:

......and DON'T store it next to a radiator, far too much fluctuation of temperature up and down as the heating goes on and off, liable to induce moisture!

Sticker on the bottom of the tin will tell you size, as it happens mine prefers the 5.51! Edit, they used to make a 5.50 as well but stopped about 6-8years ago.

:laugh: They make it up as they go along. What the hell do they know about your financial situation and since when was it any reason to restrict ammo holding anyway? Ask for whatever you can justify. I can see it now FEO to new applicant.............It's coming up to Christmas so money will be tight, tell you what I'll only give you a 20 round allocation to keep your costs down! :laugh: -
It is early days yet for this round but doesn't seem to be taking the world by storm, manufacturers are cautiously sitting on the fence (see CZ above #28 who have no plans to consider making 17WSM for 15 months). Perhaps it will work, perhaps it will not, perhaps it will be another 17Mk2, a solution to a problem nobody has. :hmm:

This seems to be getting much deeper than it need be (from what I can see due to Wilts advice to get a permission letter with a Calibre on it), if the other land is cleared for deer calibres, 22cf or bigger and you have authority to shoot on the land I see no reason why Wilts want another permission letter from you? I think perhaps you need a word in their shell like and ask them why they appear to want another permission letter when apparently you already have authority on land cleared for bigger calibres. Note to self, go out of your way to avoid a permission letter that states ANY s
-
If all the land is actually cleared for deer calibres (that may be .22 cf), in the normal course of events you do not need any additional permission and should not have any problem with your region going to a WSM or Hornet...or bigger.. But apparently you have a calibre specific permission from a farmer, that being the case and the fact you are with Wilts........ who knows? Like I said earlier, Wilts have their moments and if this little gem is anything to go by they have not been helpful to you!
-
WHY? I had a serious debate and had to educate their last Chief Constable some years ago, why do you need a new permission slip, are they suggesting you do not have a requirement for .17Hornet, have you got a very restrictive quarry list on your permission, what is wrong with a Hornet if you are shooting fox? I'm off, heading to a Sports ground/fitness centre/bar, shuts at 11 tonight, I shoot from 1 hour after closing to 07.00 clearing rabbit mainly from their massive sports fields, they have an annoying habit of crapping in the centre circles and goal mouths!
-
I am getting even more confused. Not at all, I don't see why you would need to get another permission letter at all, just tell them you want a 1 for 1 and the WSM is better suited than your HMR (as an example). If you want it in addition to a HMR/WMR simply tell them longer range rabbit/fox. I believe you come under Wilts, they are a funny lot, but you should not need permission slips all over the place, one will normally suffice for Wilts!
-
I may not be following that, I have seen/got .22RF slots but not .17RF slots, my .17 is HMR in every listing. A 1 for 1 relates to the slot, not calibre, it does not have to be like for like, you can change a FAC air rifle for a .308 on a 1 for 1 variation (if they let you have it).
-
As is so often the case we are drifting away from the topic. I have an Open mind about the 17WSM, when I first heard about it I thought perhaps it could take the place of my HMR and WMR, who knows, perhaps it might. My problem is I shoot a lot of different quarry in a lot of different environments for lots of different clients, and I need a good selection to bring the best tools to the party, do I need the extra grunt of a Hornet or WSM, well I haven't found a need yet, but never say never! I have a circa 1000ft lb gap between my WMR and .223, but I have simply never found a need f

I have no particular preference, and it will depend on the way the fox presents, if there is a shot that I am confident will stop it I will take it. All those above were prone off the bipod as well, and a still night, you can deliver a HMR very accurately in those circumstances to a good distance! This one was around 100 yards and shot daytime, prone and bipod again, he stood there looking at me, the dark area on the top of his nose between his eyes was where the HMR went in, instant lights out!
