    I have a T3 and its great BUT I was advised on a Howa by a friend after he saw one in action DAVE
  3. Hmr Hunter
    Thats good advice, I bought my Tikka and it was spewing out all sorts of stuff Lol. By the way I was considering getting an Howa, it came highly recommended until I got the chance of a T3 at a snip. Hope it goes well with it man DAVE

    This is where an old boy like me starts getting confused with terminology.....it's passed for... "Short range occasional fox", but they don't say fox on the FAC...what do they say short range occassional about then and how do they define it?? Lol, Yes they in talking say that both Rimmies are ok for "Short range occasional fox" they obviously don't state that on anything it just a verbal agreement between friends

    Gwent pass both 22 and 17HMR as suitable for "Short range occasional fox" They don't state fox on the ticket BUT after having long conversations with both FEO's they recognise fox as vermin and both calibres suitable DAVE

    Tikka T3 needed a rail and is far too tight to buy one so I gave him mine, i had already ordered the Optilock mounts DAVE

    When I bought the gun I had 60 Hornady 55 grainers with it so I've been using them up but will then be getting some Norma 40 grainers. DAVE What twist Rate is that one...1-8 or 1-12, I wouldn't invest in too many of those 40g until you try them!! ATB!! Its a 1-12 mate, whats up with the 40 grainers then? DAVE

    Picked up a farm this week of about 120 acres after driving by and seeing rabbit and Charles on a regular basis, knocked them up and they were more than happy having me on

    I'll be there may put my Border pup into the show Lol.DAVE
  20. Hmr Hunter
    Nice what calibre on this mate? DAVE
  21. Hmr Hunter
    I found the Remmingtons really good and certainly a lot more consistent than the Hornady's where I seem to get some runners. DAVE

    Out lamping tonight in the Pontypool area Lol and shone into a field where we had seen a fox a few weeks back (there were 3 of us present so no porkies being told here) as we put the lamp on I couldn't believe my eyes I was half expecting to maybe see a rabbit or a Charles but there staring at us about yards away was a flipping Roe Deer Lol, we were all blown away. I've shot in the area for twenty years and done quite a bit of half serious lamping for 10 years and have never saw or even heard of Deer being in the area or anywhere near the area. We came back to mine for a cuppa after and none

    Thanks Guys I agree totally, crazy I know how on earth can he have managed for I think he said a year without his ticket?? He supposed to be calling me on Monday but I think I will call my FEO before then and get his opinion. DAVE

    Hi, I'm in the process of trying to buy a Tikka 223 off a guy local to me, I thought we were on the road to a deal until I had a call from him saying that he couldn't find his FAC ticket, he then asked if he needed it to sell me the gun, I would assume he would just need the ticket number from his FEO which I assume he could get via a phone call, am I right? I've never sold or bought a firearm unless its via a shop so unsure of the process. Thanks. DAVE
