  1. Never trust in rumour Chessy, only deal in facts lol, yes pre season fever is beginning to bite now
  2. Lincolnshire you can, across the border in Norfolk you cant, so yes it depends on where you are.
  3. Ye I wondered that, or is he just talking tough from the corner of his mouth,after 8 pints of worthingtons?
  4. Well the shooters with their night vision, are there with permission from the landowner as well as you are they not? and show me somewhere that does not have a problem with "a few lampers" tell me are these guys you mention without permission, doing the gate crashing and hedge smashing, are they shooters? Or are they lads with running dogs? Possibly killing the foxes, Hares, Deer? I suspect the latter(no offence to genuine lurcher lads)so the problem seems to be a broad one, not just down to a chap with a rifle is it.
  5. Point taken Paulus,but let's not forget here that foxes have no natural predators, and as such will always be around in large numbers, but I certainly agree with you on the hunting ban, definitely done more harm than good, but the "sport" of foxing with a rifle or shotgun is nothing new and has been around for years,as I have said elsewhere, listen to Pat Carey aka the warrener talk about the good old days, IE back in the 60s and 70s when fox pelts fetched good money, and as he puts it everyone was at the "game" if people are going to slag another mans sport (and I use the term loosely) becaus
  6. Here we go again playing right into the antis hands, slagging another field sport off, well done, they are bloody foxes for gods sake not corncrakes
  7. Yes and just to add, a hmr bullet is a proper copper jacketed bullet with a very thin jacket, and therefore shatters or if you like explodes more easily on impact than the .22 rf lead slug.
  8. You need to go door knocking fella, getting land round our way is not easy, NOBODY is going to give you access to their hard won permission.
  9. Still for sale black widow hunter, in cammo, xxx magnum black bands, this model is no longer available, and is very very powerful, like new, my opoligies to anyone ie Bendover who pm me about it as my internet has been down, cheers.
  10. I have a Weatherby vanguard, (same rifle) in .243 and I love it with my handloads it will shoot a cloverleaf group @ 100 yards, and is pretty darn good with most factory ammo, brilliant value, good choice mate.
  11. He does sound remarkably like a pratt I know, cant be the same guy different ends of the country, but I bet they are from the same mold, a complete bloody know it all, who cant be told anything, have fun and let us know how you get on, that is if he has ever shot a deer? Except in his mind
  12. Good on you, I wish I was coming with you I would love to see this knob shoot an inch group off the sticks, and I would love to see how he performs out stalking, if he is in such a rush, I bet he bumps ten times more deer than he stalks into.
  13. For sale black widow hunter,in cammo this is the one with the xxx magnum black bands, don't think you can buy this model anymore it is very very powerfull like new boxed, £12.00 posted, pm for details.
  14. So morally what is the difference between a terrier coursing catching and killing a rat and a lurcher doing the same to a haregeordie well a rat is a horrible little bugger and hare is a lovely animal that should be left to get on with its life. its all about perception. no one cares about rats so the doggy boys are welcome to them. anything bigger should be left to be cleanly dispatched by rifle. its more humaine. You just have to look at lurcher to know they are raggy old muts from a bygone age. the breed should be left to go extinct like pit bulls and the like. FFS Rimmer you ar
  15. Sorry to hear that mate, I would love it but you are a bit far lol, good luck with the sale mate, very nice that.
  16. What a load of boll--ks , anyone that encourages you to rush a shot is a complete pratt, and apart from the possibility of wounding/missing, what about safety? If his priority is getting a deer on the ground asap, then surely he is not paying proper attention to the safety factors, and I would suggest is made even worse with a nervous novice, and yes you are correct on the target size issue, an inch group @ 100 yards off sticks will take a lot of practice and skill, has he shown you his prowess by doing it? I bet not. it sounds to me like this chap is just a little bit too big for his boots a
  17. Well I am not going to kidd you mate but it need not cost the earth if you can find some cull muntjac stalking within reasonable travelling distance, that I am afraid is your best option in light of what you have told us, the other options are continue to try and find some more land passed for your calibre,then get a mentor, or find a mentor with land already passed, and go out with him/her, a financial inducement may be necessary, but if you ask on here and offer, you may get lucky, all the best with it, personally I would source some new land.
  18. Very good advice there lads, and just to add to it, if you offer a bit of help around the place as well it might just turn the tide in your favour, best of luck and good hunting.
  19. It would not make the slightest difference if you zapped them with a ray gun from outer space, antis don't care what methods we employ or why, we are all seen as anachronistic Neanderthal sadists that have no place in our lovely liberal, pc bullshit modern society, where children should not have knives or get dirty, or do nasty things like catch poor minnows, the divide between town and country is vast, if asked where milk comes from lots of inner city kids would answer a bottle, well all I can say is bo--ocks to them now where is my club
  20. I would have put it back and hoped for the best, but I am afraid that is natures way of dealing with things, like it or not.
  21. Make sure you double up on burgers lads if that Chessy is going,eat you out of house and home he will.
  22. I cant stand it any longer, that naughty Rimmer is such a tease lol, I would defend with my last breath the right of a man to run his dog on whatever quarry he chooses, and would never slag another mans sport, a good lurcher or terrier is worth its weight in gold, the problem as I see it is this, because their sport has unfortunately been curtailed by the hunting act, the lurcher and terrier boys(of which I count myself one, although I have no dogs at present) have a big axe to grind and probably feel to some extent let down by the fieldsports community in general, on the one hand it has drawn
  23. a fox that has been coursed and gets away is very wary from then on and hard to course again but iv yet to see a fox get away from dogs wounded above or below ground. Yes in the same way that a fox that has been shot at in the lamp beam and missed is a very wary fox and will usually run at the first sign of a lamp, that said I have yet to see a fox get away after its just caught a grain soft point in the chest.
