    Good point may not be legal, I have a trailer but I may have to get a bigger one, I just thought they looked handy, but god knows how they stand the weight of a quad,

    Been looking at buying a new trailer for my quad, and come across these, has anyone tried one at all it seems they grit to the tow hitch, I don’t think I would trust one not to break,

    I used a 300 big red for years, and it was plenty for mole catching, she sits in the shed now, as I have bought a another one for this year that I can road register, a 250-300 is plenty it’s just a carrying platform, ie boxes of traps spades and such, and the older quads are easier to fit on a trailer,

    Stone there are syndicates in Scotland, but few and far between, it is just daft money now, and in truth there are better trophies down south, people have been paying stupid money, and now the stalkers expect it, a lot just see us as cash cow’s, a lot of the stalking has been bought up by southerners who hardly ever go, and try to get there money back by charging through the nose, using a local stalker to take people out, I just stick to roe stalking now and I have stalked since the mid to late 80’s

    Well I was going to put one in my shed where I keep my quad, I suppose it all depends where I manage to put the receiver unit, if I can get boosters that may cure any issues I could have, I am having the house rewired in spring time, so I will probably have to wait till then to do it right, I thought if I asked around to find the right kit first, it would save money in the long run, as regards the 4 g it’s just crap in the house, old thick walls so we rely on Wi-Fi

    4 g isn’t that reliable just here, it is getting better though

    I am thinking of putting some cctv up, and I would like some advice from anyone who has any experience of putting there own up, firstly I know or have been told to hard wire it in, however I want to ask if anyone knows of a system that will take both hard wired and wireless cameras, or even if it can be done, what kind of range have the wireless cameras, you read all sorts of stuff on line, but I wanted the facts, anyone use a wireless system if so are they worth getting, Can anyone point out a good system to buy or even a bad one to avoid?

    Hi can anyone give me some advice, I am away up to Durness in October time, I have never really beach casted, well a little a long time ago, firstly what’s worth fishing for up there in October time, what’s sensible gear to buy for the area, and any method advice would be appreciated.

    Try tiger tail beeding wire,
  19. 3175darren
    I have tried one and they do work, you have to control the direction the fox approaches the trap in, ie it needs to come in directly facing the trap, also they have to be staked securely as when they fire, they release a lot of energy , and all that needs to go forward pushing the wire, good to try when you have a trap shy fox,
  20. 3175darren
    Drill a few holes in the box back, to let the air flow across your trap bait, moves the bait scent around better,

    You can, it’s only done to stop the soil getting under the pan, right time of year a decent sized dock leaf works for me

    It was under £100 but it was along time ago maybe 8 yr back now the 223 was, I believe 24 or 25 inch barrel and as I say mine was taken down to 19 inch the picture shows the 223 above the hornet,which has a 21 inch barrel the hornet case marks the original barrel length of the Remi ,

    Well I tell you I had all sorts of people saying about loss of feet per second but it doesn’t add up, not that I am saying you don’t loose FPS , but it is minimal and I have noticed no change in point of impact, I shoot 22 hornet in day time, and I kill regularly out to 200 yds, which I was told was it’s effective limit, I doubt the hornet is pushing the same energy as the 223 at that range, but it kills and very well, you have to look further than the bench rest guys who are looking for one hole groups, if the gun is unpractical as mine was, then why not, my gun is far better to use from the

    I took a good amount off my Remington 700 1:12 twist 223, and I can tell you it has dramatically changed the gun for the better in my view, before it was unwieldy and badly balanced , now I have it as a dedicated night rifle and love it, I was going to get rid, it was that bad to handle, well worth the cost, I load my own rounds and found the lighter faster rounds suited it better so left it at that, I shoot most of my foxes out to 200 not many beyond that, and the guns been spot on, it’s now at 19 inch if I remember right it was around 25 inch, and when the silencer was on it it was like ho
