    chest shot with a .22 within a good range will drop them i have taken a few ferals around a farm yard with a chest shot coming from a .177 but all within 30m id say, but then again thats about the maxium of what you can shoot around buildings. hope this helps lewis

    atm i wear british army 95 i think it works well at the atm because i have a large hood on it which is great to cover your face when looking through the scope and i also have put some elastic strips sown on the arms so i can stick long grass through them which works well when lying i just want some proper hunting camouflage that will be able to put up with the elements lewis

    i went out with intent to shoot a few bunnies on some permission we have for ferreting on a water reservoir. we arrived at the landowners had abit of crack with him and he was fine with us going on so off we went, walking over to the wall where we would leave our gun slips and get ready we climbed over and saw some deer footprints in the thick mud, as we walked to the top of the bank there was a few small trees and i had spotted what thought at the time was a rabbit but then turned out to be 2 big buck hares and a small female each going there different ways once spooked. we carried on to see

    how much?
  13. born ferreter
    the scpe iv got is good, easy to adjust, crystal clear and solid on the mounting rack. i have read about changing the zoom will change the zero point and i do keep it on x6 its just right for the distance i try to shoot at and the hawke endurence that i have on at the moment is recommended for feild use so it is a good scope not just any cheap one of the shelf

    i had put a post up before on weather a silencer would be werth while and people had just said it would be the spring making the noise not the pellet so i wasnt bothered really as the say 'you dont hear the shot that kills you' haha as for the scope im on a limted budget as you see im still a kid really money not exactly on my side il try soome new pellets and see if that helps. thanks lewis
  15. born ferreter

  16. born ferreter
    thank secertagentmole the advise is much appeciated. what bsa do you have?
  17. born ferreter
    so i should just stop with the felt pellets all together then? i think il get a few sample packs and just find whats good my my gun can never seem to get any accuracy at 30yards with any of the peets iv used thought this might of been down to the gun?
  18. born ferreter
    im not sure how many but its had about a 1000 pellets through it around 50-100 each session, i try to put the cleaning pellets though after 200 shots? or when the acurracy starts to drop again

    hi there, i have been shooting with my bsa supersport in .177 for a while now shot a few rabbits and 5 ferrals around one of my permissions last month. it is fitted with a hawke endurence scope at 3-10x44 mag, i was using aa feild but the shots were getting irrattic so i bought some cleaning pellets to fire down the barrel and that helped but i have run out of them pellets so im currently using eiter flat headed pellets or some domed ones much like the aa diablo i think thats what they are called but the acurracy isnt to great at the moment any tips on how to get it back up? in the photo is m

    leave it as long as possible until the dog matured abit, collies are known to be clever enough to know if they will or wont catch the rabbit if you start it to early it will just jack. at 9 month give it a few droppers while out ferreting see how it does atb lewis
  21. born ferreter
    what type of dog is it? but a great way to start the season!! atb for the rest of it, lewis

    i like the way you set your nets up very similar to the way i tighten the draw string round the hole giving plenty of slack in the net. i havnt see many other if any others do this lewis

    my jill will chew through anything just a matter of time. made my first cage i built in my shed out of chicken wire within a matter of days she was through it an everytime i patched it up she chew another one its a good thing it was in my shed because the amount of night id walk in and find them snuggled up in the bag of shavings was unreal, small 1cm x 1cm mesh from wilkos as cheep as it seems works a treet and its strong stuff aswel lewis

    i read an article in the countrymans weekly the other week about what different breeds bring to the dogs, collie for wisedom deerhound for size and coat and the saluki for its endurence all have there downsides and for the salukis its once the chase is over they will look for another one. when i go out with my cousins little saluki grey on a good night it with nail 9/10 bunnies at 13months but its always been a nightmare for bringing it back to hand while iv been there. try playing a bit of tug of world with it it helps them to get abit more hard mouthed atb lewis
