    The gun will have to be in some sort of slip in public..these all have straps so it should be easy to transport on your back. There is always the potential of being stopped but if you are legal then there is no problem...as regards gun..get whatever you want! Easy!

    what do you mean by that im not too clued up on the workings of then ..your question is impossible to answer..when did you last use the gun/clean the gun..have you changed to a heavier pellet..how do you know its droping at 10 yards (whatever that is meant to mean) what power is it producing..oh yes..and how long is the piece of string....you are asking a technical question..to have any chance of getting a sensible answer you need to furnish the details!!!

    Why do people keep apologising for shooting baby rabbits...Didn't you get the permission because the landowner wanted the rabbits controlling?? The females are breeding themselves 3 months after they are born..a rabbit is a rabbit is a rabbit is vermin.. and pregnant ones are great as you can stop up to 8 with 1 shot!!

    They are to do with something being screwed up..625-715ft sec out of a Co2...I assume it is a normal beast and not some daft FAC variation...this doesn't happen.. and if putting a bit of oil down the barrel could make it happen then the Co2 world would be buying oil by the barrel!!!

    Unless you have a VERY specific need for some outrageous 3.5" I agree with SS, 2.75-3", plenty of choice, plenty of stopping power and a LOT cheaper on the whole. Bear in mind cartridges have got a lot more powerful over the years..and of course you will really need to get your shoulder behind these 3.5 as well PS £75 for 25..f**k me...is that right... £3 each... ....... Thank heavens 2.75 5's do most things for me!! and......7.5-8 for clays!

    Nothing frozen here, I took 171 off one site in November last year (it was all written up and posted on THL at the time). If I remember correctly there are 92 in this picture! The picture was taken in my back garden as I had to take them all off site, there are several other pictures in the series, some of which show me as well, this picture has been downloaded over 1000 times from this and other sites, I'm surprised someone else hasn't claimed credit for it yet! In case there is any doubt! Picture Copyright Deker 11/07

    quote name='ChrisJones' post='556379' date='Jun 14 2008, 06:59 PM']Totally agreed Deker and you're absolutely right but you forget to mention elementary chaos theory which dictates large stockpiles of the previous concentrate. In an effort to use up such stockpiles, or old boy mentality which immediately distrusts new products, batches could be incorrectly mixed. While I accept the dosage would have to be really high, to effect humans, the dosage would be much smaller for dogs and smaller still for ferrets. But the point I was really trying to make is... would you really want to eat an

    Chris Any warning about potential poisoning is valid and worth mentioning but... ...Warfarin is now only available as a pre prepared bait under EC regulations from last year, if you were to eat any squirrel already contaminated with warfarin you would have to consume about 30 a day for the anticoagulant to have any effect at all, if you then stopped you would get better. In addition, if, by any chance you did find yourself suffereing from warfarin poisoning, a trip to the GP and a shot of Vitamin K will cure you virtually instantly!

    Nope...nothing floating about the Silhouette, bolted firmly into a snug fitting stock! Deker, Do you think it would make much difference if the barrel was floated? young1982 Nope.. it's only available in .22LR, just doesn't thump or bounce. The Silhouette stock/metalwork does not lend itself to floating either...you would have to throw away the design and start again! This gun is designed to a budget as a field tool, it performs this function remarkably well and remarkably accurately already, an excellent value for money tool!

    Yep..loads of them..start by showing this thread to the FEO when you get the home visit and all your problems will be solved! Failing that you could always ask, lampingking, essexlad06, Guevara, wingshooter etc
  12. Deker
    A one gun answer would have to be .223. If you are going 2 guns it would be .22LR, and for what you suggest .223 (or .243 if you want a bit of future proofing)

    Question 2 What the F**k has Anthony Worrel Thompson got to do with CZ Trigger kits?
  14. Deker
    So....you going to tell us more about the kit and where to get it from or are we playing 20 questions Seeing as Eric Brooks appears to have abandoned the Uk market you could be on a winner!!
  15. Deker
    Interesting one this...I have tried a lot over the years and you will be faced with barrel, loading system, personal preference, etc etc but I suspect as several have said the Eley subs take a lot of beating for quality and grouping GENERALLY. However, I use Magtech 40g Subsonic HP almost exclusively in my CZ Silhouete now. I do not suggest it is the BEST ammo in my gun but it extremely good and costs just under half what the Eley does....ticks all the boxes for me!

    I'm being jerked about all over the place trying to get Tikka T3 Hunter in .243 at the moment, during my search this has just cropped up...$558 in the States, and you will be very lucky to get one at the same £ in the UK.....then Mr Beretta (Tikka) has the cheek to ship most production to the States and we are simply the poor relation and get anything that may be left over. It always seems to be the same with guns...the world production heads towards America where they sell them at half the price we get charged, just don't get it!

    You guys avin a larf???? £20 for 2 squirrels, I would be rich at that rate, I took 171 off 1 estate in less than a week a few months back. £1.00 each here..same as the rabbit! Tell you what, I'll sell them to you for £5.00 each and you can double your money...where do you want them sent????

    YEP --- Just Fox, did you ask for ground game and vermin for the .223??

    Deker replied to Simoman's topic in General Talk

    got it in one, to many armchair hunters, teenage twats, and hunting posing anti's, and we cant win, we banned people that bring the site down, only for members to cry "bring them back", or members posting illegal pictures[/b], or just plain arguing between one an other, still that brings "wheres my picture gone" members wont be happy till the site folds Couldn't agree more.

    i am 17 years old . will i get my FAC...i will be going out with an adult (who is a non FAC holder). i have loads of permition . and it has been inspected by the fier arms officer. i have no criminal records or convictions. do you think i will get my FAC...thanks Judging from this thread alone..... NO!

    alimac Take a Chill Pill!!! I'll book you up some shooting lessons with Mr Logic..then you can re write that book you read about 60-70 yard .22LR distance. He is a very good shot (but don't tell him I said so). When you have finished your lessons with him I'll give you the advanced course!
  23. Deker
    This distance business can only lead to no good. Simple fact is that someone will always be able to do better than somone else but it is human nature to push to boundry...and yes.. of course we are all pleased with the long shots. I shoot the humble .22LR at 200 yard Short Siberia at Bisley regulary and I'm dissapointed if I don't get at least a couple of V bulls, and that's my little CZ 452 hunting tool. I have a lot of experience with long range .22LR (Sub & HV). If I take a long shot in the field then I am confident. My longest rabbit is a baby, at 196 yards with the 452
  24. Deker
    Sorry chap, you seem to paint of picture of experience and as you say...and I'd done my research on it all too, then you ask a question/s like this. You can buy whatever gun your FAC allows for target shooting, but if your FAC lists Target shooting and NOT vermin control then the answer to your question about bunny is glaringly obvious...you are breaking the Firarms laws and risking a LOT of grief!

    WHY????? What is it meant to do to the barrel? And Why .223, they make plenty of calibres in steel cases, what about all the others??? Have you ever asked anyone who has used it about their barrel??? It's news to me and I use it a lot in my Tikka .223 which has very fine rifling, I have no problem. If someone knows something I don't and can tell me I'm going to get a problem I'd like to know please!!! Here's what others have said about cheap Russian ammo': "I’ve heard things about Wolf Ammunition being bad for barrels and other parts. For those who don’t k
