    Its been a year since he posted this, who knows what he is up to now, I think he is more of a Dog man though!

    I have 1 site which is a Free Range Chicken/Geese/Duck farm, over the last 19 years I have been shooting there I have averaged 14 fox a year from this one site, coincidentally with you, I have just take the 18th this year on that site alone! To be honest I don't know my absolute total as I don't keep tally of the domestic jobs, but I think I'm on about 65 so far for the year! I've hit 100 a few years but generally between about 35-80 a year!

    They don't look like CZ anymore, shades of the Sako stock. Even the metalwork looks different!! All mine are 452 models, can't fault them for field work, so if the 457 is as good/better you are on a winner!

    I got a job on a site that had a major problem, yes, I took a serious number of squirrels, it just happened to be me, many people could have done the same on that site!

    Let me know if you want some help! My lad lives in Caerphilly, I could see him and help you...so long as yours don't fly too fast!

    I've saved that so I can give it a try...I still have no confidence in my ability though! Time will tell! Cheers

    Never tried, like the birds as they are, but I have to say that's an idea, I'd be happy to try a meatloaf, need to find a good recipe, I'm not the worlds greatest cook!!

    I'm no fan of his attitude/comments/views, but he can drive a bit! What qualifies many actors/musicians/sportsmen/etc etc to lecture us?
  9. Deker
    That's a good total for a day by any method!

    Must be at least 2 years since I had a woodcock, to be honest probably a bit more, not many about here and too quick for me these days! Can't remember ever seeing 7 in a single shoot!

    I can see where most of the comments immediately above are coming from...put simply, that isn't even close to proof.

    ???? My previous had shotguns included on the same pass, hand written.............. so did my latest, the format changed though and it was typed, whatever, they are no use anymore.

    I think the 10/22 has a lot to do with the accuracy perception of semis. Many are simply useless out of the box (please don't write letters if yours is ok, you are simply one of the lucky ones) that's why so many people buy a 10-22, throw most of it a way and replace all sorts of parts with better after market parts. To be honest a semi will never deliver the accuracy of a bolt action, but the difference can be measured in gnats whiskers...my Magtech 7022 is very light, incredibly cheap and delivers some cracking accuracy/consistency as well.

    I've not been before, not a fan of the NEC. Is it worth it, the Game Fair was a let down this year?
  15. Deker
    Yep! But I would have to say, if he is new to this I would simply start with a cheap old eBay torch and mount and see how things go!

    I've been in this business a good while but the majority of my stocks are Plastic, with just a handful of varnished wood. Just the same, I always look at the weather and treat them with respect, but what is the issue with Stain and Tru oil, is that a problem in the wet/cold/whatever??
  17. Deker
    Thanks!

    You are some clever lads! On a similar note, I have a lovely oak table but it has a few dents in it, I'm told that heat/water may help bring it back. Anyone help me with some ideas how to do it, Thanks!

    Frankly they should be under the terms of the W&C Act, they are a non indigenous species, unlawfully released/escaped into the wild, and it should be shoot on sight, but for some reason a few years back we actually gave them a season! The reason for their presence in the wild in the UK is similar to the Muntjac, but so far no seasons for them??? Lets be clear here, I have no specific downer on them, I simply do not understand the Legislature of this country sometimes!!

    A man from Beds, home of the CWD!!! They haven't arrived my way yet!!!!

    I remember the incident at the time, its another world altogether regarding guns in the USA. Still not quite sure I get the verdict, seems to me he was out looking for trouble, but I obviously don't have all the facts. Apparently Biden thinks he was guilty, so if that senile old man thinks that, then I guess he must be innocent!

    Not being funny but, right situation, it should be less than 1", if mine ever goes outside 1" it's back to the drawing board!

    Worth a try but I find these tend to zip right through with little expansion. I'd check the zero with the 17g V-Max! That will confirm 2 things, first, that the ammo batch is fine (or not) and second, it is accurate! Cleaning has been mentioned, you will get all reactions to this from NEVER clean it, the zero takes ages to come back, or my view, clean it regularly, but make sure you clean it thoroughly. Too many people give them a quick run through, simply raise fouling and then complain its worse than before they started. And be careful, that tiny little bore needs to be treated

    I've shot every deer bar a CWD (never seen one in the wild) in this country, and the Muntjac eats best in "my" opinion!!

    You are going to get a few different answers. The truth is I've tried a lot over the years and probably still looking for the ideal one, (but a couple of different ones come in handy), whatever...KEEP IS SHARP, VERY SHARP and you will not go far wrong!!
