    Cheers I will play about with the rig system,I am sure there's a quieter easier method out there,and I have now found more work for one,still on with the net steady away

    Cheer's mate that would be good,I didn't want to sew lead in,and thought about putting pin's on the end with a bit of bungy cord on the bottom line to help it drop, at the moment I am considering fibre glass tent poles with the elastic running though the middle,. Would them washing line poles not work Don't know,at the moment I am making the net,but the ideas I am rolling around will make it light and easy to use,the problem with the tent poles is I cant find them more than 850 mm long,so I am looking at quick set poles and a sliding system,

    Cheers I did Buy it second hand nearly new,was told today rifle craft have no arrival dates for new triggers, as it seems they are just going to swap them out,its not the sorting of it,its being without the rifle that bothers me,I am sorely tempted to buy a Timney trigger,and see if I can bill them,

    Told last week,Remington are recalling there model 700 and model seven rifles due to safety issues with the xmp triggers so my mate gave me the website,to go on and would you know it my guns affected the website is xmprecall.remington.com for anyone who wants to check Theirs,you enter your serial number and it tells you if your gun is affected,then you have to complete a form and they arrange postage and inspection in America,this really p****s me off as I don't have time for this,can I ask has anyone any other information on this,I really do not want to send it,and I am considering dropping

    Its the do Gooder's again if it went to the vote the majority of this country would bring back death penalty especially if we declared what they are costing us to keep,but they wont do that,they would rather charge us rent on our ironing board cupboard [sorry that was a dig at the bedroom tax ] to fund the low life shit,

    The run is straight,with no obstructions mate,the one thing I am having deep thoughts about, is the bird issue I had not thought about it till tiercel brought it up,I suppose the net running in line with the fence, will help a little rather than being 90 degrees to it,I have come up with a couple of ideas that may help we will see,I want to get going with it as soon as I can,I want a first attempt by start of may,

    Agreed, its possible but on very well clipped grass,edge of a caravan site the spot is owned by a very good friend,and when the place shuts at the end of the season it will get smacked with them and the rifle, this is something I have to do now its something I have not tried before, so its become a challenge,one that might cost me,but I doubt it will be that expensive,the ones I have found on the internet,look well over engineered heavy and expensive,god loves a trier,and by the look of it this method seems to be one that has yet to be mastered,I may fail I suppose I should play my cards close

    what I might try and do, is set it up and up the trail camera to one side, to see how the height of the bottom line affects the rabbits passing under I ordered the spun poly this morning, but in the mean time I am considering taking one if my old nets and removing the hazel stakes just to do the experimenting,

    cheers mate I will when I get a start on it,

    cheers I will have a go and I recon I could make it reasonably priced I have gone over it for two days now, and I recon it would work for me, I know not every one could use one, I grew up in a place where I couldn't leave anything out in a field either,but I am not so bad where I live now,the problem I have is working out how high, to hold the drop net up so the rabbits are happy to travel underneath it, and out onto the field to be honest I think it won't be a problem, but the only one I ever saw set up,the bottom line of the net must have been maybe 2-3 foot off the floor, while it was lifte

    No it was a small dog fox, this was two yr ago, we had a fox trap set,but it was a good 300 yds away with a dead hen in, the call bird was not amused,

    Cheers lads I sat today and decided its time I had a go and made one myself,I did once see one,and if my memory serves me right I am sure I can do better,I don't know what it will work like yet but sod it in for a penny in for a pound,it seems there's very few people who has used one properly,or regularly I have some good ideas and I will see where we get,

    I looked at a spot last night,which had plenty of rabbits on, all running to a bypass,the problem is there's a lot of buzzards about and the rabbits are jumpy, some I can take with the rimfire but the rest have no safe backstop,years ago I saw a drop net,basically a long net on poles that's pre-placed and fastened up so the rabbits went out under it, into the field, then dropped via a system of pin triggered poles,at the time I thought no, destined to be nowt but a bloody head ache and so I never used one, the old man used to talk about tying the bottom line up to the top with a slip not,and u

    Oh dear a Hatstand, I dont want to piss on your bonfire mate but I hate to see people waste their money, dont do it you will regret it pal. I hear a lot about them, but I got mine to take abuse and it does its been good, I may be a lucky one I know,but up to now its done its job well and I am passed spending money on guns to lay them across a quad, and drag them through brambles and mud,so I keep a nice 20 bore for the pheasant shooting, and my hatsan gets everything else,if I knack it up I have lost nowt,in comparison to the 20 bore,
