  1. Has anyone had a 22hornet barrel cut down and to what size did it affect it in any way, just that my mate has bought one the gun shop sent it away to be shortend, 2weeks later they rang and said they wouldn't do it as it would affect it's accuratcey, just wondered if that's [BANNED TEXT]
  2. After 2 weeks of no hunting due to family commitments ect ect first light saw us making our way up the fell to are chosen destination. Lurcher marked a warren so in went my hob, not long to wait until that all familiar sound of subterranean thunder rabbit number 1 in the bag hob back in number 2&3 quick out then a 2foot dig to him with a rabbit in a stop end. then another bolted from an unetted bolt hole,after the lurcher had to negotiate some big lime stone rocks in her persuite it got to ground so nets on there and another 2 in the bag. We then just followed the lurcher were ever she ma
  3. I use a jack p***y gun dog training vest, brilliant piece of kit fits plenty of nets in the back and loads of pockets in the front for locator box, knives ect
  4. Talt she sure is a hancock dog, she is making a good reliable ferreting dog this is her first full season and so far hasn't put a paw wrong.
  5. None at all it's as wild as it gets on the tops, even the sheep were trying to get behind the walls out of it today
  6. Iv got a half bred hancock collie greyhound bitch the sire was Arthur she is just coming up 2years old.i am more than happy with her so far I have only used her for ferreting so far, she has picked it up really well marking holes working with nets ect. I'd recommend one to anyone, give them a ring and have a chat,
  7. Off out this morning, got on top of fell before day break, started to climb out to our destination and the wind started, lurcher working away in front of us saw 2 rabbits drop into a set so netted up silver Jill in 2 out then a dig to 1she had bottled up, back fill and move on lurcher working away in front of us marking sets ferrets in, rabbits out, that's prity much how the day went just follow the lurcher marks the wind was getting worse but dog kept marking rabbits kept bolting we ended up with 17 and only 4digs.
  8. Rew, there is only my mate with permission and the farmers are always about on there quads checking livestock ect. We have taken good numbers off there the last two seasons then earlie spring saw mixi wipe them out. Hopefully there it plenty still in the rocks and walls so when the weather gets bad they will move into the warrens,
  9. . Myxi came earlie on this year there was a lot of young about until it struck. Hopefully they will be back up in numbers next season. It just means the ferrets will have to work that bit harder to find them, plus my young lurcher saves a lot of unnecessary netting up by marking the holes. It my mates van it doesn't have a side door, it gets us up to some good places providing it's not too wet
  10. This time last year from this spot we had 50 rabbits with no digs, . This year same time same place same time we only managed 9 with 3digs .
  11. Were abit spoilet really all open fell so no real cover to worry about and if the weather is bad we move into the woods for a bit of shelter
  12. What sort of numbers are you getting?
  13. Joyce's the ferret isn't a feline it's a mustelid the same family as weasels, polecats, mink , stoats
  14. Good going on your own pal
  15. There a good line of albinos all related in some way
  16. . A wet day today so we went into the wood for some cover, instead of the open fell. Lurcher marked them we bolted them the first 9 bolting well then we had a shallow dig to my hob who had killed it then bolting another 3 resulting in a final total of 12 before calling it a day
  17. . Il have to bb what method of payment do you take
  18. I have a 1/2bred out of arther she's coming on really well, training went well, it's the first half bred iv had and am well impressed so far
  19. Had a day out today lovely morning, blue sky's no wind and a big open fell, the rabbits just didn't want to bolt, ended on 14, a few digs thrown in but nothing to deep.
