A good dinner there, it’s good to see a few rabbits about this yr,
-
I know what you are saying and in most cases you are right, but nothing in my opinion will go through a thick nest like a B.B. you can see it come through the top, and to be honest it’s never really failed me, as for foxes I have shot the out of high seats before with BB’s, and they don’t move generally , just drop, I know what underdog is saying, I have shot a fair few with number4’s, and there are a number of cartridges that will do the job, but I do prefer to stick more toward what I have tried and tested over the yrs, I think the one thing the 12 has over them both is cartridge choice, alt
-
Can I ask what that sight is, rimfire boy, and how do you find using one on a shotgun, I found mine strange at first,
-
Yes I agree they will, but BB’s are very good, when shooting through Squirel drays, especially when they in the bottom of old magpie nests, they are a very handy shell, I don’t use many, but when I do they do the job,

Well I have just got hold of a 20 gauge silenced Mossberg, and I like it, last wk I sat in a hedge, three crows came across the field I killed the first, missed the second, and killed the third, the birds didn’t deactivate they kept coming, they are good guns, I use 28 grn no 5’s high pheasant, and along side the hushpower cartridge’s I cant tell the difference, learning to shoot with the silencer on took a bit of getting used to, so I put a red dot sight on it, for no money really and bingo, I am starting to get some results from it, I did think about the 12 bore, but found it he
-
Very nice indeed, -
And that to me is the only drawback with them, just like the nomol trap,
-
No mate 20 gauge, I will have to have a crack at the clays to get used to looking at the mod, I am thinking of getting a 410 as well,
-
I find the high pheasant 28 grn 5 ‘s very good I have tried the hushpower gamebore, but the high pheasant , are my preferred shell at the moment,
-
Just got mine It is heavy to walk with, but good in the hide, it’s the sight picture that I need to get used to,
-
It’s funny there seems no one really cleans them, i was capped how much old blood came off the stalking rifle, I just used a bit of soapy water in the end, weak mix of star drops, I was wondering if they were any products out there,
-
I used one in Scotland, and trust me when they are bad up there, there bad, and it worked very well, I will agree though that skin so soft is also very good, as for ticks I never got one when I used it, if that is anything to go by, if the dog is sat in close it makes a big difference to him too,
-
Yes, but not cheap to run daft money for refil pads and gas, but they do work,
-
Nowt wrong with a teckle mate, good to see one being used over here,
-
Good cull buck, ours are mostly boned up on the antlers, up here and have been for a while, very early this yr to be fare dispite the shit weather,
-
Thankyou for that, it’s good to learn, that makes sense,
-
How does that stand with the firearms ticket being black powder and ball then, is it on ticket or not being smooth bore, sorry for sounding thick, I know the shotgun would be ok, just the ticket for black powder required, the one I fired with ball belonged a friend, who had firearms ticket, so always assumed it would be required,
-
Underdog it’s good you do these posts, I have always had a fascination, with black powder guns, and did once try one which my brother still has I believe, I also tried a Kentucky style long rifle, owned by a friend back in the late 80’s I must say I could not hit a bloody thing with ball, beyond 20 paces, and that was a 45 gallon drum, but the shotgun I enjoyed, it’s good to see someone hunting with them,
-
Spot on ianm, DSC1 or 2 is not a need to have at all, book some dates in a diary for stalking, with the wife’s uncle, it’s a little more tang able then,
-
Good luck hope you find him,
-
Good watch that, truly dying art
-
Can I ask what products people use to clean there synthetic gun stocks, I usually just give mine a wipe, but was wondering what other people use,
-
I am sure he can’t hold 5 bags of sugar, on the end on that stick, with one hand so easily, it has to be crap,
-
I can’t get them accurate,
-
Cheers this is second hand Mossberg 500 20 hushpower, as I say I havnt yet seen it, as the dealer is a fare distance from me , I know it’s in good condition,
