    Any new barrel should be cleaned from out the box. All sorts of packing grease could be down there!

    Sorry mate, I meant the 50grn wmr federal resist expanding over the vmax alternative. The 50's are what I term "drillers".
  4. Sausagedog
    30 grain bud. I don't think it's the weight that's the problem. It's just the lack of expansion over the short distance of a small critters anatomy

    She was going to be a big one going by her paws. She came in to my impression of a squeaking mouse. Only a forty yard shot. I saw another. An old friend. It lets me light it up once and then it's gone. I shot this one about a mile from home and just as I got in bed a fox howled on the back field! A definite two finger salute to me I don't doubt one bit! Shot with the federal 50grn. I am going off them....they don't expand on these small varmints. Oh they kill them eventually but not as quick as hornady and other lighter loadings. They work for sure put in the ri

    I don't shoot that far now. To old. Besides, I don't have a CF any more. As Deker said, most my fox's are taken well under 100yds. In fact I took a few with a shotgun last winter and one of them was a muzzleloader!

    Personally and off what your saying bud I would want a light rifle not long in the stock, 6 or 7x fixed scope and practice shooting it off hand. My old BDL in 222 comes to mind. Nothing was safe to 200 shooting it off hand. Nothing was safe to 300 rested.

    Looks grand ?

    That looks grand high country. Where is it....not exactly....I mean roughly?

    243 in my opinion is misunderstood. Due to dumb deer shooting laws born from "experts" every one used 100+ plus bullets but 243 was designed around 8 0 GRN bullets by Winchester and when used with 70-80 GRN bullets it shines. My last 243 was a vanguard made by howa. It was a light weight with pencil thin barrel, lovely to carry and shot rested and off hand perfectly. The rifling was shallow and very kind on the bullet and it's terminal performance. I use to get some good long shots in with that rifle too.

    That twist is very fast and suitable for heavy bullets and or very long bullets. For light bullets you want less twist. All my 243 rifles were one in ten and stabilized 60grn bullets perfectly.

    You all reminded me of the time the head keeper came to and asked if I was in such and such wood first light. Yes I said, looking the poults. I thought so he said. He went on to inform me that he bumped into the gaffer walking his cockers later that morning and he was annoyed because one of his dogs had been rolling in badger poop. The keeper said he thought to himself "that ain't no badger poop"!

    Good job I had my glasses close to hand? For a moment I thought you had got it all over yer face! Nowt wrong going al fresco just don't be offended should I decline to shake your hand.
  16. Sausagedog
    Wow, fox fest. Bet they're all hungry.

    Your obviously taking this personal so I'm not going to participate any longer. I'm not your enemy. SD.

    The point is made in the last paragraph! It is not law. It will become law because people don't resist. The origins of all this is not public safety. It's to limit claims against the police for giving a nutter a licence. They would be especially liable if it was proved that said nutter gave the police access to his medical records but they didn't check.....and they don't. They don't have the resources to check all medical records so by threatening us they can cover their arse...simples.
  19. Sausagedog
    Has the renewal form changed? Or does it still only ask for permission to approach your doctor and or medical records?
  20. Sausagedog
    The reason they still issue is because it has not been made law by parliament. Because some have capitulated it is becoming another lore or unwritten law.
  21. Sausagedog
    That's what they did to me last time. I told my doctor not to send it. A few weeks later my renewed licence arrived.
  22. Sausagedog
    So, if your doctor is a supporter for wild justice we are screwed yes?
  23. Sausagedog
    Stupid bloody phone!
