Well I’ve cleaned and waxed my boots, charged the radio’s, sorted out hand sanitizer etc all read for Saturday rang the shoot secretary to gee him up about the guidelines and risk assessment, he said he’ll sent it out on Monday, I said it needs to be before the first day, he said, “ it will be, we shoot a week on Saturday not this Saturday “ ? nobhead, I thought it was this Saturday ?
-
Something about 55gn and hopefully under 20 a box because I’m financially embarrassed ?
-
I’ll take the gentleman’s.243 first, he just text me to say do you shoot rats because there’s bloody loads of them, I haven’t replied because it’s not something I’ve done since I was a kid, so I might have to pass that on to someone who likes a puff gun
-
The lad was proper helpful, he rang me to say it’s been posted and will be my gun shop on Thursday, on another note, I’ve just got off the phone with a lad that was given my number as he’s got a problem fox, I didn’t let on that I knew who he was, because this lad has a lot of farm land not far from me, so I’ll be off up there this week to see if I can sort it quickly and maybe get an in, on the rest of his land ?
-
I’m sure he said it’s 1 in 12,

Cheers for all your help, I’ve bought the blued one from Forest lodge guns, he did me a bit of a deal, what I saved from not buying the stainless one will pay for a mod ????
-
Forrest lodge have a blued one in but no price, so they will be worth a ring as well ?
-
I’m going to ring them tomorrow, I’ve searched the internet, I was looking for a blued one just because they are under a grand but can’t find one, I found one other stainless but that was 100 quid more, so that one from countryman will do just fine, it’s exactly the same as my .243 ?
-
Cheers Bernard, I looked at the one in Derbyshire earlier, I think I’ll give them a ring when I’m home ?
-
The problem is getting anything in left handed around the same price of the tikka
-
So the lad at the gun shop rang me and tikka have said 6 to 8 months for the rifle I want So I’ve now got the ball ache of a task of ringing all the shops to see if anyone has one on the shelf to get it RFD’d to my local shop
-
I’ve seen that, it’s good ?
-
Have any of you lot watched meat eater on Netflix, it’s a bit over the top American but it’s good to see how it’s done over there, bow hunting elk and shooting sika with front stuffers, the respect he has for his environment and the animals he hunts is superb ?
-
I would of thought so, but you should never let the truth get in the way of a good story ?

6 Decoys , 2 skeins, 3 geese
Stavross replied to FOXHUNTER's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Nice one, I love having a go at the geese, it’s probably the only shotgun shooting that I would turn down rifle shooting to do, that and maybe duck ? -
Even with all that rain there’s still no better place to be ?
-
The best one I’ve read recently was “ the last English poachers “ proper old boy, reminded me a lot of the lads that took me out when I was a kid
-
?? hahaha nobhead ??
-
This is what I’ve been waiting for “ Bernard sausage game shooting” good job ?
-
It crazy mate, we are in tier 2 in Stockton but the shoot is in tier 1, so at the minute I think I can travel there ( on my own ) to shoot but if they move me to tier 3 and the shoot stays at tier 1, I can’t travel to go shooting, but if I’m going to feed that’s different because I have a responsibility to look after them ?
-
No, first day next Saturday, unless Boris wrecks it with a mad lockdown at the wass turn off if you come from Sutton bank there always a group of suicidal fallow on the side of the road
-
So I’ve just been to the gun shop, knowing what I wanted ( tikka t3x lite lefty adjustable ) the lad in the shop said he would ring on Monday but don’t hold your breath as they are struggling to get what he call special order rifles from them ( lefty ) he said if they haven’t got one it could be up to 8 months as the American market gets what they want before us ? blast you Trump and your right to bare arms ?
-
Up at the shoot, they are everywhere, one was running alongside my car at wass bank
-
An exciting adventure ? you definitely did better than me, all I seen tonight was hares and pigs ?
-
Jesus, I’m going to have to wait until I get in to read that lot, looking forward to it ?
