Flippen 'ek!

So many turn up and want land, this is a shooting forum with 1000's of members, someone got there before you!

Nobody can give you a definitive answer, the answer will depend on position, weather, temperature, shot height, time of day, specific ammo, distance, etc etc etc, and change virtually daily. Don't forget, your best way of avoiding ricochets or collateral damage is to actually hit what you are aiming at, so spend time getting used to the gun/ammo and check zero. Many have suggested not taking the shot unless YOU are confident, and that is about the size of it. As for .22LR being likely to ricochet, anything can/does/will given the right/wrong circumstances. .22LR is the most

Can you turn your Caps Lock off micky? ....and if there are Salmon and Trout in the water may I suggest you buy a rod!
-
Seems a great outlook but also looks shallow/rapid/uneven!

At the end of the longest line going, I had to switch to fibre last year to get anything half worth having, but the fibre is only to the end of my close, bit of tin still the rest of the way. Big improvement but I have already spoken about Fibre right to the house!

161 pages so far, have we solved the Trump Dilemma, or will it be 400-500 pages by the next election?
-
I wish......Not round my way!
-
The whole thing still seems strange to me!
-
Is that for real, have you checked it, fastest I've come across without something special going on!

I have very rarely noticed any difference on any rimfire ammo, especially HMR. Centrefire has its moments but tend to be pretty close, every now and again a BAD batch gets through, but on the whole factory stuff is pretty consistent. I tend to buy quite large quantities of all the ammo I use these days so batch variation isn't much of an issue for me. As walshie says, target shooting is potentially a different situation!

Peanut butter sounds a lot easier!
-
I was thinking that a few days ago!
-
Is it me who's missing something...have you seen leslie harold gedge post?
-
Don't get to excited!
-
Here we go...yet again....but it doesn't look to promising for him!

I think I see where you are coming from, but if we are talking ZERO, then it will not change with 1st or 2nd Focal plane and it will not change with magnification. If your zero is (for example 100yards) then that is what you will hit regardless (all else being equal), first/second/magnification will not effect ZERO. There is NO holdover to consider if you are shooting at whatever ZERO you have set, with 1st/2nd or magnification change, just differences up to and past ZERO! I think that's where you are going with above post.

Johnson is a buffoon with a brain, he is a million miles ahead of Abbot, even though he does put his foot in it a times. Abbot is a racist idiot with no brains at all, she is a constant amazement to me. How on earth has she conned her electorate for so long, and as she is a leading parliamentary member in the Labour party it simply shows them to be the rabble they are!

I wouldn't stress to much, chuck one in the freezer and see if they like it afterwards! My lads dog is a complete tart, runs the rabbits down but refuses to eat them until they are actually cooked, can't get enough them then, but turns his nose up otherwise, even if they are fully cleaned/prepared!
-
Isn't he up to 6 already!?
-
I don't run ferrets, are you suggesting they would not be interested if the birds were fully prepared? If they are for Ferrets what's the issue anyway, just freeze them and see!
-
Who knows, why would you want to freeze with feathers on, mine are all prepared before freezing.
-
Aesthetics are just that, in honesty most of us like nice things (in our perception), but frankly, making a rifle look nice has little or nothing to do with it's performance, and performance it the ONLY really important measure of a good rifle. Looks good though!
-
NO, just your eyes/focus.... ..….cheap scopes who knows???
-
It doesn't matter if its 1st or 2nd focal plane, Magnification should NEVER effect ZERO, only potentially the perception of flight path to ZERO! If it does I'd bin the scope!
