We went out last night at 7.30pm and waited in a spot overlooking some good ground hoping to catch a fox on the move at dusk 8.20 and the light was drawing in , I spotted a fox coming down a banking , a quick shout to stop it and it never felt a thing Then we continued lamping , we came across a couple of foxes in a stubble field , one was shot the other ran off into the adjoining stubble field. As we proceeded to follow a motor pulled up into the same field and started lamping and squeaking :realmad: We watched them for a bit , then they started shouting ,laughing an

Lamped a farm last nite that consists of large stubbles , turned on the callmaster and immediately had 2 foxes screaming in from about half amile away each , one out in front and one out to the right. Unfortunately they both worked the wind and disappeared before getting a shot. :realmad: A couple of fields further on and we lamped another 2 foxes in same field but once again they didnt like the lamp and scarpered. :realmad: As we left the farm we were a bit pissed off at seeing 4 foxes but not getting a shot , so in desperation I lamped one last field on the way out and spotted

A look out yesterday provided a little mixed bag........... Another Charlie went to that great hunting ground in the sky

On my early morning mooch this morning I bumped into this guy

I would definitely consider getting a moderator for your .222 foxdropper , it was the best move I ever made buying my T8. I dont think I could ever go back to a rifle without one , my hearing is already shot after having centrefires shot from my shoulder for years the daft things you do when you're younger!!! Whilst stalking you can often get a second shot

Out again last nite on a different spot but the weather came in misty :realmad: Just as we got back to car I spotted some eyes my mate did really well taking this cub at 97 paces with the rimmy

A good night had by all. Foxing can be very easy but it can also be very frustrating at times . Once those foxes have been lamped a few times it can be like a game of cat and mouse. Nothing more satisfying though than outwitting a shy fox

Nights like that are to be cherished , they dont happen that often around our neck of the woods
-
Good result The more you go out looking for them you will be surprised how many you will actually grass

Good going mate I hate it when you have to share permission with other people as it can be ruined by constant lamping. I prefer to only do one patch of ground every 2 or 3 weeks , giving it time to settle down. Out last nite and picked a few up This ground wont be lamped now for a couple of weeks

I also use the palm of my hand not the back of my hand. We also use a callmaster which I have found to be very effective

Well done David , I cant wait to get out again as Ive been laid on my back in bed for the last week , done my back in big style but its starting to mend now. Will be back out on those foxes again next week , plenty to go at

SCHMIT & BENDER MP 11 NEW SCOPE
FOXHUNTER replied to FOXHUNTER's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
.243 calibre using 58 grain v-max .......................awesome -
Back last nite again and my mate took another cub xx

My mate has just purchased the new Schmit & Bender MP 11 scope at a cost of £1500 and I have to say it is excellent. He wanted to try the scope out for long range as this is his forte. Anyway we spotted a hare sitting in a field and with the rangefinder assessed that it was 664 yards away. So after checking his ballistic chart printed from the internet , dialled in the turret the minutes of angle required at the required distance. Now there was a tiny breath of wind blowing from the right so he aimed approx 1 foot to the right and with his first shot he took the hare.
