    Non ped scratch whippet, maybe a splash of bull in there for some added keenness ?

    Mathmatically you have 2 POI, 1 close ( 35 yards for example ) and 1 far ( 100 yards example ) It's all very well putting round on round at 35 yards but that isn't enough room for erroer on the left / right zero IMO. I've personally zero'd at 100 yards, anything closer a little hold under anything longer a little hold over, simple

    lol was wondering if it could be the power lead shorting out somewhere. I opened the control unit and all looks well

    Hi all, is there anyone technically minded and know's about Porta Mag's ? It turns on but the light on it fades after maybe 5 / 10 seconds ? Thought I would ask on here before I go down the road of finding someone to possibly look at it or if needed repair it. I was hoping it could be something fairly simple that could be done by myself ?

    That's what mine are made off

    Rip canes A quick update - a little bit of loosening and the tripods working pretty good. For some reason I don't like using the HMR off it though, just the .22 ?

    Cheers, they need a few outings but they work alright so far

    The fox that ate my HMR round the other night hasn't been able to complain about that so called ' pop gun '. Granted the .243 is better / bigger round for charles but for a night out on the conies and a fox comes up then all is good ?

    After seeing your sticks you guy's have made I went and had a look in the shed to see what I had to make use of. I found an old fishing tripod that needed some tlc, so a bolt, some WD40, 15mm pipe lagging, a fishing rod rest head and some black insulation tape later I have a light weight steady as a rock set of shooting sticks I think they are a bit tall at the moment but a few nights / days out will iron out the teething troubles I'm sure Thanks for all your input

    Stick with ya dogs and stinkers Not sure if they'll grant a .243 straight away on a first ticket ? Personally got the cz 452 .22 and a Savage Arms .17HMR. The HMR is a tool perfectly capable of many things if shot placement is right

    60 yards for me, seems to be a sensible distance

    Spot on with the pictures and input guys, some nice sticks to be made from stuff I'd never thought of. It seems to be that you guy's have all made bipods instead of tripods ? Is it because they're easier to make or just the fact there is no real benefit to tripod sticks. Atb Blackstaff

    Cheers for the input all

    Good offer that is Nick If you get no response let me know please, always nice to have rabbits to go at

    After a few years Air rifle shooting I now have my FAC and a CZ 452 .22 and Savage Arms .17HMR in my cabinet and must say I love them both. I have been using my friends shooting sticks ( 2 legs ) recently whilst out and also borrowed a set of trigger tripod sticks from a different friend. I like the effectiveness of the tripod as its a pull of a trigger handle and legs are down without having to mess about to much but the quickness of the 2 leg sticks was so easy. Air rifle hunting there was never a need to use them really, or more the fact I didn't really look into them too much but they do m

    I've got a 6 / 20 x 50 mil dot generic scope on my Savage and must say I like it. It was on the rifle when I purchased it so thought IO would give it a go. I had a Nikko Game king 6 / 24 x 50 ready for the hmr but Like the scope on it so much I have put the Nikko on my CZ 452 .22 Personally think it's all about how you feel about the scope, every eye is different as are we. So long as it's half decent quality then there are lots to choose from. Good luck

    All tests and samples have been done by the vet and the results are all clear apart from white blood cells pointing to Prostate. Personally think a second opinion would only confirm what I know already, and set me back ashed load more money which frankly I don't have.
