    If the primers have "np" on them, they will be Norma factory loads, so should be OK. Yes mate they have NP joined together Thanks all for your input .

    Some time ago i had a call from a rather upset lady who runs a chicken farm .I did the foxing at the time and still do .She explained that the automatic shutters had failed to close on shed one so a man was despatched to sort it .He,on his arrival had seen a fox chasing chickens around the stoned up area outside the shed and eventually chased one bird into the shed .He had shut the shutters quickly thinking he had done a good job but yes youve guessed it .I arrived to find the lady and farmhand in deep discussion about his future on the farm and the doors still shut .I brought the .410 and the

    Foxing yesterday at a place that keeps a few dozen free rangers and i got lucky .As i looked over the hedge to the chicken pen ,cheeky old charlie was inside the electric fence and making towards the chooks .He saw me and was gone ,over the fence and down to the lower fields .I followed with little chance of seeing him again or so i thought .He was out in the middle of a field with the sun on him and what a picture .Got tucked into the hedge and gave a squeak to which he responded immediately ,running in fsat .I shot him on the run ,head on .Took him up to show the farmer that something was be

    Im in no doubt you are fully qualified to inspect a carcass ,its the rest off the shit that accoumpanies your posts that anoys me and many others , the snide comments attached.Get over this and you may not need another user name before Christmas ,what you on now ,10 different user names ,says it all . The need for all those exams you and others have been conned into taking sort of palls into insignificance when you think that i do the very same filling in of tags with no initial outlay and all perfectly legal and within european law .Gets stuck in your throat a bit dont it Anyway you have a

    If thats the case then i oppoligise for being nieve.I can only comment on what im told at my own dealers .Maybe the fact that i dont have the exams means im obliged to take the pluck in ,something that ive not considered but then again the pluck appears with all carcasses whether the shooter has the ticket or not ?.Do spot checks not apply to you boffins ?If the vet asked for the pluck to a beast which they ARE entitled to do whether you are a boffin or not ,would you be able to supply it or would you take in any old pluck just to satisfy him .

    Went to a place last night where i do the ongoing fox control .A place i go whenever i like ,no need to call the farmer .Pulled up in the crunchy snow and got the kit together .A shine with the green filter made the glare off the snow worse so a straight white light was used .Got myself out in the middle of a large field and sat down.Let things quieten for a few minutes then started calling .A vixen shouted not far away and i think it was her that ran across the top of the field ,unimpressed by my efforts A pair of eyes appeared exactly on her tracks and a gentle squeak had his attention .An

    So do you fill in the necessary paperwork at this 'dealers'mate or is it cash there too .As for the shot position making a difference to the price paid ,your being told lies mate .The only part of a carcass on a roe which is used intact is the saddle,back legs and backstrap together ,The rest is sausage meat .

    I'm sure Vim has little need for my input but I don't think his is pretending, them deer are definitely either fast asleep or very much dead John Anyone can kill the odd deer mate .Pretenders are those that think they are good at it ,that they can lecture others as to best practice. The silly ,inexperieced deer will fall to anyone with a rifle .Consistancy is what makes for the real deal and a quiet unassuming nature to the man ,someone who dosnt shout about what he does or tell others they are doing it wrong .Advise is given when asked not when deemed needed . You will meet a few of

    Bollocks, Maybe things are done differently in your neck of the woods but if the dealer gets a vets inspection,which is often down here ,the pluck needs to be available for his scruteny.If he finds something which the less trained eye does not and you havnt individually marked the pluck , then your whole consignment is condemned .Simple ,even for someone like me who has no deer qualifications at all .Selling for cash is old school too and the mark of a dodgey dealer who will take anything ,no traceability.

    Be nice to have some snow to find out ?Well done on your outing mate .
  17. Squirrel_Basher
    Out myself tonight ,purely pleasure though
  18. Squirrel_Basher
    All that bollocks a while back about doing the correct courses for deer handling and your now selling them for notes with no red offal for vet inspection ,kindneys at least .You see Vim pretenders are easily found out by ramblings at a later date .Maybe you should set up a past post reader in your personal planner .Poacher ,cowboy for definate .No more lecturing anyone as you aint in a position to do so .
