  1. do them up tight enough to many people put them on, thinking they are strangling the fert, and they then slip the collar, best way is to put the collars on in the hutches, take a look 3 or 4 hours later and see if they are still wearing them, if not, make another hole and go tighter, untill you can return to the hutch and still find collared ferts, if the fert goes blue, the collar IS too tight
  2. well Ive just picked up a hatsan escort from a pidgeon watch member, for the price I payed Im well happy, less than a year old and immaculate condition, Im out shooting on the 28th, so Ill stick my review up after that
  3. yes, theres a 20 post rule, as stated, ensures members contribute to the site, rather than immeadeatly start selling its a new rule, that may not appear in the rule section yet, but in the rules, bottom line, we have our get out clause "These rules may be changed without prior notice or announcement"

  6. hi joe, I must be the exception then, as Id always dry them off with a towel
  7. yup, its a road agency law, it saves them money, as it allows landowners etc to ferret etc, otherwise think of all those landowners who could get onto them, saying the warren was their side of the boundary fence, and they needed to pay for pest control how many people have ferreted land, with a little "B" road running down the side, technically the landowner only owns upto the boundary fence/hedge, with only a few feet of grass the opposite side before tarmac, Ive ferreted in this situation loads of times, simply running a longnet along the verge, never once have I been stopped, or moaned
  8. Im going down the "nearly new" road, but will give honest results never the less, I do think, after reading loads, that the "jams of cartridges" are down to us having too much of a choice, they are made in turkey, as a everyday usage shotgun, we then get them over here, and have a huge selection of carts to stick through it, resulting in jams etc, of course I could be wrong and talking an utter load of bollocks, were have to wait an see

  13. as much as I love it, Im after another gun, so I need to make space in my cabinet pedretti hushpower 12 bore has had a slight repair done to the underside of stock by previous owner, can hardly be seen,a usefull tool for anyone with a permission with noise issue's, or for using around livestock etc is very quite if using subsonic cartridges, and still quiter when using standard pidgeon carts collection only Im affraid, and remeber the SG certificate £150.00 I might have a few hushpower carts kicking about for it too not the carts in the picture though, they are

  15. any rifle is only as good as the person using it,
  16. no, but does everyone follow instructions, do people with no training in the use of, still think about secondary poisoning, or using indoor baits outside etc etc even using fenn traps, are they in "tunnels" either homemade or purpose built, rather than just put in place theres a whole barrel of worms waiting to be opened on legalities, which "non" pest controllers may be unaware off, lots have mentioned traps, but no mention of tunnel
