  1. Very nice, always nice to get your first with a new rifle ?
  2. Certainly can’t grumble at that, nice work ???
  3. That is absolutely stunning ?????
  4. Haha haha ? those were the days, I certainly look a lot younger back then ?
  5. Keep trying mate, maybe one day you will look as cool ? as me, I’ve just got back from the sunshine this morning so there could be some pictures of me in my speedo’s Looking like a Greek god if you are lucky ?
  6. Good choice, I love my little T bolt mouse gun although it is no better than the cz .17 I’ve also got it is a bit posher, go for the 16” and put a slightly longer sound mod on it ( just to make it look better, dpt do a nice one for about £90 ) you won’t really notice the barrel flip on a .17hmr no matter the length, so you can’t blame that for any misses, also go for synthetic stock because they have a lovely little touch where another mag fits in the stock, as far as I know they do them in 16” and 22” I’ve never seen a 19”, when I got mine they only did it in 22” left handed so I had it cut d
  7. Very nice, it’s coming to that squizzer time of year for us around the shoot, there seem to be loads this year, I think I’ll have a bash at a few on Sunday when I’m back to normality, feeding up, for now I’ll have to put up with the 31•c and a night out loggerhead turtle ? watching ?
  8. Very nice, most of the time just being there is enough ?
  9. Ok, I’ll say it he’s a big lad and the fox is a fair size to ??
  10. That sounds an ideal holiday to me, I’d happily trade a week in the sun for that ? enjoy Phil ?
  11. I’ve just got here, now time to test the water for a fishing trip, we’ll start with a few gin’s first ?
  12. Cape Verde, west coast of Africa, fishing is ment to be amazing but this is the wife’s sun holiday so I might just have to lay there a dream about shooting ?
  13. Got you a caller mate, I’ll drop you it off when I get back ?
  14. Nice shooting Dave, good luck with the roe buck, spare a thought for me when you are out on your adventures, I’m currently sat in an airport being forced to go somewhere hot ?
  15. Magpie attack: Australian cyclist dies while fleeing swooping bird https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-49711147 and packham wanted them off the GL, be safe people, shoot the b*stards ??
  16. I decided tonight would be the night that I’d give the nitesite a go on the rabbits, so fitting it to the browning T bolt .17 I set off to some local fields with the intention of recording some shots, the first 5 shots were all missed but after a bit of messing about with the focus and zoom I soon worked it out, 9 was the bag once I got used to watching a screen on top of the scope and I think I managed to record them, all I need to do now is work out how to turn the laptop on, I think this could be a lot of fun on the rimfires, I have tried it on the .243 but the image quality isn’t very good
  17. Very nice, I love the first two, always something completely different ?
  18. I know what you mean with having to use two hands and it is quite bulky but the main thing I like about them is the binocular and using both eyes, they seem ideal for one spotting and one shooting
  19. I’m from up north mate, you can buy a bloody house for that ?
  20. I’m going to have to get a paper round Dave to save up for one, the xq38 binocular is still £2750, I’ve played with a couple of thermal spotters, but having them as a binocular in my opinion just works far better
  21. That’s a lovely looking buck Dave, well done, I see a lot of good feeds there, it may be time to invest in a mincer and a sausage maker ?
  22. Well we covered a massive amount of ground last night, it’s certainly very different to up my way, with the harvest moon the going was tuff, with no cover on huge fields we found them very weary, we could pick them up with the thermal ( and what a bit of kit that is ) but trying to get them to come out in the open was a different matter, we managed a couple both well over 200 yards and then turned our attention to the hares for a game dealer order, running the thermal around the fields I couldn’t believe the amount of hares and muntjac it was like shooting fish in a barrel, in one field of ca
  23. Well I’ve made the trip down to Norfolk and just set out with robin and ric for a nights foxing on the flat lands, one down so far and the amount of hares are unbelievable, fingers crossed for a good night ?
