As already said, many pistols, especially the cheaper ones, struggle to get any much past 3ft lb. Very few are close to the limit of 6ft lb, and those tend to be in the upper end of the price scale. I use a BSA Magnum in .177, well over 30 years old and running somewhere between 3.5-4ft lb I seem to remember. Perfectly adequate for caged squirrels (as long as you put it in the right place). Anything bigger/tougher, I am fortunate to have one of these....................

You need a bit of Weedol Pathclear there!

I do like my HMR, BUT, are you still having ammo problems? I haven't bought any fresh ammo for ages, I have access to massive stocks but it is the older stuff, so still get plenty of split cases!

...and this is how it is done, there were actually 2 cats together, wait for the right moment, keep it distant and fuzzy and hey presto...a BIG Cat!!

All seems very strange but there are several reports!

How long will the inquest last......and get ready for the Netflix series and films!!!

Actually, that does seem rather odd now I think about it, I'm on the Police Humane Animal Dispatch team and think nothing about dealing with roadside incidents. I've also dealt with 2 ganders at a farmers request as they were giving the girls a hard time, and very recently a chicken at a country house estate that was terminally ill. And yes, a .22lr is perfectly adequate!

Must be 10-12 years ago now a stables I worked with asked me to deal with their stable cat, it was ancient and seriously infirm, about 21 years old I seem to recall, I politely declined.

Distant, grainy, blurred, just the way we like them! I took them myself so they must be real!!!

.22LR doing the business

Only the 1, 10 shot magazine with the Magtech 7022 as well! -
There is next to nothing that can get that deep!!! And even it something can/does, then how are they going to rescue it??

Any luck, what about the airgun boys?????

Never had that much success with the traps, but drop boxes can work, not keen on the digging though!

.22LR doing the business
Deker replied to sparky the hunter's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
It has been around forever and still sells, but I'm struggling to know why!!! Many people who buy them throw much of it away and replace with after market parts. I spent a lot of time looking into them before I invested in a Semi and decided for what I needed a Magtech 7022 would be fine, and it has proved to be!!! Cost me £125 brand new!!! Useable straight out of the box with fitted iron sights, but I did a little work. Removed sights, added scope, moderator, studs and sling. Only time it has ever jammed is when I was helping another 7022 owner having trouble with -
.22LR doing the business

Love my .22LR (2 rifles and 1 pistol at the moment, had 3 rifles a while back but that was just plain greedy) Has many uses and very versatile! -
That's HUGE!!!!!

Sportsmatch! Just the same, I would consider other things first as already mentioned, and regardless of make, I would check/swap scope, just to check.

They will make great fox bait if it doesn't rain...probably even if it does!
