  1. What am I missing, I believe I see what it is, and that's pretty remarkable but where is the Funny Joke?
  2. Each to their own but that is too light for me for field work!
  3. Depends what you are after, but real bargains "can sometimes" be had at the Game Fair!
  4. As said 6-9 very limited use. I've 9-13 and the next size up. Both Harris Swivels, both useful, for field work Swivels a great advantage!
  5. They are very ordinary. X mark pro on mine! There was also a recall on them some years back, I never had any issues, but mine was recalled and fixed, never noticed any difference!
  6. NRA » The Phoenix Meeting - NRA That may help! The show is ok, I'm quite close and go most years, but depending on what you are after 2 hours could be plenty of time to get round! edit Trade Fair: The Phoenix Trade Fair will return for the first time since 2019 on Sit Pet Lawn, featuring a range of different suppliers for all to enjoy. Doors will open on Friday 27th – Sunday 29th from 8am – 6pm daily. Entry is free so come along and support the suppliers!
  7. That's new to me, not usually a problem finding the fox on most of my sites, but if I get a problem I'll give that a try!
  8. Other than grip/hold, are you convinced the Pard is FIRMLY fixed to the gun, very slight movement can cause shotgun patterns in target!
  9. There seem to be more and more cropping up recently...who on earth is digging back that far?????!!!! Rather pointless as so much has changed, for instance, PCP has developed incredibly in that time!!!
  10. something powerful, accurate and as quiet as possible. I'm a bit out of touch with Springers these days but I'm sure someone will come along...... POWERFUL, are you talking FAC?, otherwise many are near to the limit of 12ft lb, or can be adjusted there, but that's your lot!
  11. ....and there was me wondering why on earth you stuck an old cartridge on the gun? Then I read it!
  12. Which ones???? Are you reloading rimfire?????? Or was that cartridge?? Mini Mag can be had for £9.00 per 100 and I just bought 50 Velocitors for £9.95. Doesn't seem that long ago there was a reasonable choice of .22LR ammo at £4 or less per 100, but I guess it was a few years back!
  13. Perhaps worth a try in... Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control Section as well!!!
  14. I may well need someone in the next week or two for a small ferreting job on a piece of land I control. Site is in Shurlock Row, that's roughly between Reading and Maidenhead. They have taken up residence under a big tree, holes are easy to see and in clean ground, nothing grows under the tree as the tree screens the ground. No money, just told the landowner I would see if I can help him out. Anyone interested, please pm me asap. Cheers!
  15. The springs on the bodygrips are toytown compared to the Kania. And yes, it is real fun and games setting the Kania in many a roof space!!!! It was a shock to me the first time I ever saw one, anyway, I must be doing something right, I still have all my fingers!
  16. Everyone's circumstances/land/requirements/experience/etc/etc is different. There are limited numbers of Red round my way (and never even seen a CWD in the field) but my .243 has served me well for all deer to date. I also have .308 but it gets more use on the Range than in the field. I use the 150g in the .308 and it really is an easy shoot, mine is a Remington 700 SPS Stainless Light barrel and is surprisingly easy on the shoulder! I've never actually shot the 6.5 but I have the 270 numerous times, not a fan. Have you ruled out a 308 for some reason?????
  17. Mind your fingers, it still concerns me every time I set them!!
  18. .......and Ronnies not bothered with Records. He wants 8 now for sure, said as much in the after match interview!!! Semis were a better watch though!!!
  19. A nights sleep has changed the whole complexion of the Final. Ronnie need a great start in the final session or I can actually see Trump taking it!
  20. Well, that's the closest so far, do you have some contact details please, may be worth a chat, I can't believe how difficult this all seems!
  21. Fair do's, whatever works for you. Kanias are my go to for many things squirrel, they don't take prisoners!
  22. Yep, don't know why but not a fan of Trump these days. I thought Ronnie was lapsing into old ways with his Referee debates as well, but Trump simply not of form. There is a way to go and whatever, they have BOTH reached the World Final!
  23. Thanks everyone, but the various Forums have only come up with people serious distances away, I would like face to face handover/discussion with whoever does the work and I'm struggling. More than happy to travel sensible distances but the closest so far has been over 200 miles...EACH WAY. So, once again, anyone know someone who knows what they are doing and can give this a thorough service for me please, as close to Reading as possible. Cheers
