  1. I had a couple before this, but didn’t want to post anything too graphic ??
  2. Filled up the squirrel feeder within five minutes these two had appeared, ?
  3. Although I have committed to the sk’s, only having sub 1000 rounds with no more that I can find, I’ve gone back to look at the eley hp subs that grouped better, but suffered more with flyers. I still had a few leftover, and picking through them, a few bullets felt loose in the brass. Would this account for the flyers?
  4. As it’s been for 100’s of years, a scared population in a obedient population.
  5. Not wanting to continue off topic but if it was illegal, then wouldn’t it also count for the fac air rifle users? They all use round pellets for vermin don’t they?
  6. @Rimfireboy! I bought the 950 rounds that shop had left. What’s the view on solid rounds for hunting? If you’re going for head shoots, it doesn’t matter, does it?
  7. Thanks for the reply’s, I’ll have a go this weekend and post up the results. How long should I leave the pigeons out to defrost? Cheers
  8. I’ve been given some frozen pigeons by a friend, would like to do a pie, anyone with a good recipe? cheers
  9. I haven’t mentioned it to the land owner, it’ll be gone by the end of the week.
  10. When I applied for my fac/sgc I received a letter from my gp with an invoice for £20 for the report, sent off a cheque all good. I then spoke to BASC about something else, who informed me that gp’s apparently aren’t allowed to charge for the report, I was going to chase it up but for £20 it would cost me more in time. My neighbour on the other hand was charged £60, so who knows. But if you are a member of BASC worth a call.
  11. After all of that, and planning on going with the SK, I find out it’s been discontinued ?ffs!
  12. A bit more testing this time 100 yards indoor five shot groups. Eley hp’s, Norma hp’s, SK hp’s and CCI segmented hp’s I like the SK’s, if it wasn’t for the flyers eley would be hands down winners.
  13. Thanks @The one nothing too exciting then ? cracking bag though, and only £28 ??
  14. Its quite sad, I spoke to a gentleman in the gun shop about the lack of rabbits, he’s put it down to a few diseases that wiped big numbers out, but did say a couple of good warm summers and the numbers will come back.
  15. But do they have names and a wooden house? ? thanks for the reply’s, I think I’ll give the lamping a go like @The one mentioned. I won’t be taking any until I see good numbers.
  16. What do people do with their spent .22 brass, seems a shame to just bin it.
  17. I’ve spotted a rabbit on my permission on two separate occasions, it’s the first rabbit I’ve seen in nearly three years. So my question is, if I’ve spotted one how many will there be knocking about in the colony? I’d like to take a few, but not before the numbers are sustainable. Thanks Dave
  18. Can someone tell me what the front elastic bungee strap and side loop are designed for? Thanks
  19. It was me being lazy, and my wife does say I’m quite childish ??
  20. When my wife’s spider collection gets out of control she has a waxed.
  21. I agree with everything, apart from the parts about Piers Morgan, I assume the author didn’t watch the interview with the South African big game hunter. Morgan will argue the opposite option with little knowledge of what he’s talking about just to have the argument. But, well written and the correct way to go, if only falling on deaf ears. 
  22. @Rez old enough to know better, apparently.
  23. @villaman fingers crossed ??
  24. @meece ?? I am quite poor, but very stubborn so hopefully those groups will tighten up ?? The box is still going! Just sick another target on top ? I doubt there’ll be much box left at the end! I’m shooting prone off of a bipod and sand bag.
  25. All I want is it to hold zero, and I’ll be happy.
