  1. Aye it is good to meet local guys into the field sports n we'll have to meet up down the shore for a shot next season.

  2. I've got a webly scott 9mm garden gun in my safe it fires small brass rimfire cases and i've used it on rabbits to 20yard with some success but its not a good gun as the ejector does not work and you have to take the bolt out and ram the shell out with a rod I certainly wouldn't shot my arse with it though, someone elses aye but not mine . last time I bought shells for it it was £6.90 for 50. Better to get a 410 or 28 bore.
  3. I've got a very full 4 gun safe with 9mm Webly Scott garden gun 20 bore s/s AYA boxlock 12 bore s/b Baikle 12 bore s/s Ugartechea boxlock 12 bore s/s BRNO sidelock 10 bore s/s AYA boxlock I will have to get another safe when I for fill my dream of owning a turn of the centery damascus barreled J & W Tolley single 4.
  4. Alright guys just wondering if any of you reload yer own cases with ITM and what sort of wads, primers and powder you use and what sort of weights of powder and shot . I am already reloading my own lead loads for decoying geese inland or wasting foxes but am having to buy bismuth for the shore ducks and geese and its killing me price wise and also dont rate them that good , I would like to get sorted out for loading my own by next season. Cheers Meikle.
  5. Aye i'm sure the shoot orginiser would be well chuffed when you pulled that out yer gun slip for the first drive of the day.
  6. Ive got 5 2xpoley jills (mosschops and chewy) 1x sandy jill (no name) 1x albino jill (satan) and 1x poley hob (meatball) I take all out with me nomaly working 2 at a time depending on the size of the warren and keep the hob as back up although I should work him more coz he work well.
  7. Ive got 1 poley hob 2 poley jills a sandy jill and an albino jill at the moment and the best worker seems to be the smallest poley jill she takes her time working the ground proply, where my sandy jill who was last years young is like she is on drugs down hole she moves so fast around the warren its unreal. The big hob works quite aswell.
  8. Slow cook them in a caserol pot with shalots, carrots, leek and tatties for the best part of an afternoon at about 140c in oven when cooked thicken gravey with flour and a touch of gravey browning.
  9. I should of sayed AYA aswell i currently have 2 in the gun safe 1 is a nice box lock 20 bore which great for rabbits and pigeons and the other is my Matador 10 bore for ducks and geese both are great solidly build guns that shot well.
  10. Alright chief Baikal's are always good to start off with for someone on a budget they have always built solid guns that will take getting knocked around. I started off with an old single barreled baikal and still have it and its fired thousands of cartridges through it and has never missed a beat.
  11. Mine love a bowl of veg soup and also eat the odd banana
  12. I put an old thermal sock over the bottle and hold it on with tye wraps i've not had it freeze yet
  13. Garypco is right if you concentrate on feeding up the pond every night starting a month or so before the season starts. I spread feed around the edge of our pond and in the shallow bays and keep monitoring how much is eatin when I go down, put more down if there eating the lot and less if its not, wheat seems the best but old tatties work a treat aswell. you'll soon not have to worry where they come in on the pond or how to set deeks out there will be so many moving about and dropping in your next worry will be reloading fast enough and marking fallen birds. As Garypco said dont shoot it any

    Hob

    Hi guys, i've got 4 jills and 1 hob, the hob is this years young i'm still undesided on if I should get him the snip so he can take the jills out of season or leave him intire. Is there a certain age to get him dealt with or can he be done at any age, I was wondering if I could just leave him whole and seperate him at the start of next year til the jills come into season then jab them and return him to the big cage once there all out of season. I just feel that would be a shame for him as he has always lived with his girls and I cant see being a happy fella on his own I have also heard of deal
