  1. Exactly, and that's why I will never sell my No4. It was my Dads, and I can still remember to this day, going to the bank with him, to get the cash out, and then going to the gunshot, as he passed over the counter a bunch of notes, for a new No4. I think it was 385 in about 1977/8.
  2. got a nice aya no2 i could let you have in very good condition for a fair price Cheers Paul, love to take you up on that, but financially unable at present, due to a wife who thinks we can afford an extension!! Thanks for the offer though.
  3. If they are happy going out in this bloody weather, nothing will put them off! Well done lads!
  4. You lucky man. One of the best Spanish game guns out there. I couldn't afford one, but I am very jelous. My biggest regret is selling my No3 20bore in a stupid moment years ago! I now use a No4 12 bore on the occasions I am not using my 28 or 20 O/U.
  5. Apparently not, but I am no scientist. If you look at the test for lethality with a firearm, it is far less than the 8+ ft lb mentioned in another quote, if I am not wrong.
  6. Mythbusters actually discovered that was only the case when fired vertical because the bullet destabilized. Anything other than vertical and it still retained enough energy to seriously injure or even kill.
  7. Nice mate. what camera and lens please?

    Carl Froch a very clever intelligent boxer. Mentally he has won the fight if you can go by the interviews.
  9. Only done it once but its something like, "make payment". Choose "as a gift or other option" and enter their paypal name or e mail address. It will then show you the details before you confim.
  10. An excellent opportunity from a knowledgeable member and its nice to see your appreciation in open forum. Thanks for sharing that.
  11. Well. I took the plunge yesterday and flash fried some of a loin, cut into medallions. It was bloody lovely, and nice and tender, so I guess the restr is going to follow at some point. Thanks for all the replies, and I haven't disregarded some of the advice, I have just taked a decision, based on the information that was to hand on the day I shot it, the condition of the animal, the condition of its internal organs, and gut feeling.
  12. So you spent 1300 on a scope that you don't have a rifle for.........! Flipping heck, no wonder she's peed off! Mmmmm.........!
  13. Great little read, and I love to see those dayglo nets. Great bit of sport for the kids!
  14. Bet somebody came back after half an hour of ferreting another spot and thought............"who's knicked my rabbits"
  15. Remmy 870 takes no prisoners with slug or heavy game loads, because it is a light gun. S/A should be much better. You know the recoil is coming so keep the stock firm, and lock your cheek to the stock, so the gun and your head recoil as one. Then all you have to do is concentrate on the shot, and let the recoil, come as a suprise! I occasionly fire .458, with 510grain bullets! Now that is horrible! Have you patterned you gun to make sure its not the pattern thats blowing.
  16. I suppose once you have made initial outlay for kit and ferrets its then a cheap sport..............and then you've got vets bills, frontline, fuel costs! Still well worth it for me, and one of the best forms of hunting around, very often in good company and action packed!
  17. Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know what they say though....................................................... "there is no such thing as bad weather......................just bad preparation!!"
  18. What is it with men and boys about farting! Misses just came and looked at what me and the boys were laughing our socks of at, and she said, Yes you guessed it............ "what's funny about that......................!!!" Lol.
  19. Definatley don't seem to be as many this year as normal, in our part of pennines. None seen on the shoot today, and would usually have seen at least 3-4 at this time of year.
  20. I was always brought up to believe they were called Bullets and cases, and the complete article was called a round. Hence the reason, military ammunition liners tell you for example "100 rounds of 7.62" Maybe though the army have got it wrong
