    Had a wander around next door but grass long and not much about so headed back to original spot and shot another 6. Saw 2 hedgehogs too. Just sitting in car now in ambush..

    Just popped up this farm again to look for more bunnies , on arrival farmers mate was in yard and told me to have a look on 2 fields of his along the road ? Just a quick walk around the edge and shot 8 , will come back on dusk. Permission seems to be looking for me at the minute , he has a farm further down the village with loads of rabbits but grass needs cutting first.

    Farmers millions ?? if they say theres the odd one you shoot 40 or50 if they say theres hundreds you shoot 2 or 3 , always been the case. Beautiful purple sky on that pic ?

    Nah just a cub , maybe the pic is making it look bigger. This afternoon had a ride out to Durham moors with mrs and daughter walking the dog. Saw a few grouse chilled out before the 12th..

    A great read that's for sure , well done on the terrorist. I used to always confront people when I was younger but now older and wiser just keep out of the way , anything for a quiet life.

    Hope so , only saw the one last night but the others must be somewhere ?

    Popped up to a sheep farm last night as the farmer had seen a fox . I placed out the caller and soon had a set of eyes appear 400yds away but it wouldn't come in just content to sit on the banking in the long grass. So off I set stalking in to it , got to around 120 yds and set up on the quad sticks . Hard to see in the long vegetation but managed to get a good shot off ?

    Looks posh but can only call them in if they are there.......never had anything to do with ICOtec just Foxpro.

    I am well aware of long range shooting as my mate used to be in to it in a big way.....it is the norm in the USA but frowned upon in the UK. I don't have a problem with it if the rifleman has all the gear and has practised to a proficient degree. It's just you said you shoot deer 1/2 a mile away , just wondered if this was true .
  17. FOXHUNTER
    How much holdover ???
  18. FOXHUNTER

    Haven't been to this farm since before lockdown as farmer is an old boy. Rang him other day for a catch up and he said come through as a few rabbits about ? Arrived about 4.30 and stalked the wood edge. A few rabbits about and managed 19 in an hour and a half including one with a white stripe down face. Going to farm for a cuppa now then will head out again for round 2 .....

    Calibre is down to personal choice and as you say it doesnt matter as long as you like it for your chosen needs. We all shoot different quarry on different terrain so what is suitable for one may not be suitable for another. I love my .243 but mention that on the SD and you will be slated , it's a girly gun and all that ?? For rabbits I prefer my .22LR my .17 HMR doesnt get out much , may have to take it out and have a play with it.?
  24. FOXHUNTER
    Apart from up here where theres none ?

    Never pissed on one thank God but I was trying to get a rabbit out of a dry stone wall and touched the mains fence with my forehead. I thought I had been struck down by lightning it flung me off my feet backwards, 6 foot in the air . My mate couldn't do anything for laughing, I was in shock for about 10 minutes, hate the things.
