    CC I know you've had a couple of walthers, might be more members on here too, but you've spoken of them recently. Would you say the terrus is a better rifle than say a 99 or a lightning etc?

    I like your grasp of english language roybo lol. I agree with your comments, but the word 'game' isn't restricted to fighting dogs and birds. There are many instances where 'gameness' comes into the equation. I think socks touched on a point about greyhounds being game, and I agree with that., Not all greyhounds, same as not all bulldogs, but it takes guts, drive, determination, 'gameness', for a greyhound to continue to chase the hare on track when it's broken/fractured a bone in it's leg for example, until the end of the race. I know that their only running for a short while, but it mu

    Without turning this into a 20 pager, why would you disagree with someone calling their dog dead game, if it was still alive. Dead game doesn't mean the dog is dead. Dead = absolutely, dead game =very game, absolutely game, Same as dead quiet, dead right etc

    Gameness is a word, a person has the right to call whatever animal he likes game. I had a really game ferret years ago Not as game as my Goldfish.... Probably not lol

    Running dogs natural quarry Everey lurcher I've had has literally pulled my shoulder from it's socket if there was a deer up in front, before I even put the lamp on, so I knew what was there, when I used to lamp regularly, pre ban and all that lol

    I'd beg to differ with what you say about generation breds getting racier and lighter. It depends on the types/builds you pair up. Breed from the racier types and yes, over time you'll get racier types, keep pairing up the heavier types, and you'll get heavier types. I know it's not as straightforward as that, and you need a long term breeding plan etc, but that's the gist of it. You should know that from your interest in bird breeding, of which you do seem to know your stuff. I see nothing wrong with adding pure greyhound blood, as it will give shady what he wants, especially as these

    How about a bit of punctuation so we can work out what the feck your talking about. He's GOT to be related to whin lol

    Did a few miles on the trains myself years ago lol. Still pretty good in most of those areas w k. Rabbits not as many perhaps

    Quite correct there what you say about different types sir. There are a couple of members on here with picardy blood in their dogs, don't know if it's just picardy though. Keeganrees and zx12edge I think got the dogs with picardy blood, they're the ones I remember off the top of my head

    Well written db. But again, and I've said this in the past a few times, you've written the 'sport' when it comes to hunting. Hunting is hunting, not sport, and the sooner people stop using the word 'sport' the better. I know the majority of people partaking in working dog activities etc use the word 'sport', as in 'fieldsports' etc, but we're doing ourselves no favours by continuing to use that word, it's hunting, in whatever form. Doesn't mean you still can't take pride in your dog/dogs if they work well etc, but using the word 'sport' says to all those opposed to hunting that we're doing

    Can't stand that c**t either! Those terriers weren't forced to go 'chutney ferreting' were they?! Lol. I've said it for years , we need a documentary I agree we need to find a way of putting our side accross no good sitting on here bitching about it in the last thread there were emails sent complaints made and they've run another story on it !! I also agree with that. A program like 'out of town' which was hosted by jack hargreaves, would be good. He had a great, sensible way of putting things across.

    Wouldn't they make nice allrounders anywhere? Not trying to clever, just interested. Most places around the uk have thousands of acres of land broken up into smaller tracts of land and fields etc Id say they would. with the correct upbringing entering ect Sometimes in a litter, you get some more like the greyhound, along with greyhound running problems, but if you can pick one that has best of both worlds, it should be a handy dog i reckon. Got you. Was tempted by a 'coursing bred' type a while back, never again. A first cross I'd still be interested in. As in you know what yo

    Honestly mate, it's brilliant, my son shot mine on the second day I had it, and immediately part exed his fx wildcat for one! He's a very experienced shot and has owned god knows how many different rifles, his new 110 is already his favourite. Lighter, better balanced and quieter than the 100, even the K versions. I really am over the moon with mine. Am now on the lookout for another HW springer to go with my . Been thinking of a 98 and a 97k. Hope I don't start getting the 'bug' which alot of you lads seem to aquire! lol different strokes for different folks...shaaark i had the 110

    Lol glad you realise I'm only taking the pi55 lol. I think you'll do very well with this type, I've had a couple in the past that were extremely useful, on allsorts, not just rabbits. Good luck with the litter

    FFS don't let morton know about this litter, he'll be telling you that 95% of the litter will be shite, because they're out of a greyhound! Lol Who you kidding the whole lot will be shite!! Greyhound dam pffffft,a shivering useless no good for nothing whippet & a stalking,run picking b*****d of a collie Unoubtedly, the whole lot will be crap lol. The three worst breeds of dog, on this site anyway, mixed together, obviously will be shite, especially as one parent is pure greyhound lol

    Not a surprise to me at all. I was looking for a new pcp, and tried/shouldered LOADS of different rifles, including a 110, in various rfd's, and shot a couple of different ones owned by mates, including a HW100 KT, which I sort of had my heart set on, but it wasn't for me. And have shot quite a few of my son's rifles, rapids, ultras and a few others. All very good, but not quite what I wanted. Back to a local rfd to have another look, and he tells me they've just had two 110's in, .177 and .22. The .177 was sold within the first couple of hours of being in the shop. So had a 'proper' look
