good afternoon from a wet and wintery wiltshire!
mole trapper replied to fishfish's topic in New Member Introductions
Tell you what fishfish, i was interested enough to take a look at your site also, unfortunatly it was not quite what i had expected, although self sufficiency is something to be applauded and in my mind a greatly sattisfiying activity it should not condone illegal and in humane ways of harvesting wild food when there are more humane methods openly available to us now, i refer to road casualties, it is not big or clever, just illegal and as already stated unnecessary. Shame really as you have the makings of a great site there. Regards MT, -

Very interesting post fish, we do a fair bit of the same, but nothing like as much as we should. Not the arty stuff, although FPO is pretty good at that sort of thing, me, well i could make a pigs ear out of a silk purse. -
where to buy snare wire
mole trapper replied to markieboi's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
Are you talking an 8 kg that will make about a 1000 or a big one, the small one will knock you back about £90 with vat and p+p -
Yes they are fantastic, and they keep me in the lifestyle i like being accustomed to.

CCI Shotshell rimfire round.
mole trapper replied to mole trapper's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
No luck as yet, rang sportsman who were to busy to talk to me, they promised to ring back and didnt. Will try and find time to ring GMK monday to see if they can tell me anywhere close that they have shipped them to recently. Moletrapper GMK.co.uk Email them.....they will usually get back in a day or two. Federal (GMK) and Winchester also make shotshells (probably a few others as well) Cheers Deker Cheers for that Deker. -
Another Red Stag yesterday
mole trapper replied to spudlington's topic in Deer Stalking & Management
Hell of a hat rack !!, will keep you busy for five minutes butchering that if you are going to do it yourself. What is the rifle, not a very clear picture, but it looks like it could be something a bit special. -

Another year and hopefully a successfull operatrion, failing that some brasher socks size 14 extra wide.

Hey Flash, not to far from me, do some of my deer stalking up near you.

Deker to my mind you talk much sence here, i have the .22s and then the 22 centrefires etc, i bought the 17 hmr for the in between, but then i realised there is no real in between, well not in my work anyway, within a month i flogged the 17 just could not see the point in it, the only thing i could see people wanting it for was blowing up rabbits further away and making a bloody pulp out of them. Those of you who like them fair play, i just dont see the point in having 4 rifles all near as dammit the same calibre.

Good pictures there julia, have you any ground where you would be allowed to hunt with them now that you have done some training.

Sloe gin yet again
mole trapper replied to harrycatcat's topic in Living Off The Land & Game Cooking
We usually leave the fruit in about 6 months, we did once leave some about three years and it did go a little harsh, one bottle i have here is now 7 years old, we generally find it at its best about 2 years old. -
CCI Shotshell rimfire round.
mole trapper replied to mole trapper's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Trappa, yes they still count as part of your alloted quota, They are a low powered rimmy that has a plastic capsule containing lots of small lead shot, i use them on jobs where the customer does not want a hole through the roof or any other nasties, they are sufficient to kill squirrels, pigeons etc at close quaters, eg up to say 20 feet, no further though. The beauty is no ricochet or over penetration. Theobenmike, these are the older style ones, correct me if i am wrong (i am sure you will) but i think these used to be refered to as sparrow mail. If i had not used the last one up i woul -
Vaughan, i think you may be getting your mole facts slightly mixed up, they need around 20 worms a day, but they need on average about 200 mts minimum of tunnels to produce these. Regards MT. ps, WHAT MOLEY SAID ABOUT LIVECATCH TRAPS IS RIGHT, THEY ARE CRAP. Are you skiving today as well? THAT WILL BE YES MATE. weather is crap so i have given the staff a day off.

You cant beat a good bit of rib beef, but that will be boxing day, christmas day will be a free range chicken stuffed with force meat, proper giblet gravy and all the trimmings, FPO has got this one off to a fine art.

CCI Shotshell rimfire round.
mole trapper replied to mole trapper's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Cheers for that Deker, should have remembered GMK brought them in, Sportsman have a lot of dealings with them, so will give them a bell. Always remove the mod of the BRNO when i use these, Sometimes i think it would be worth getting a .22 pistol to use them in as the look on customers faces can be a picture when they see the gun slip, trouble is dont really want that much money tied up in something that is not used every week. Cheers again MT. -
CCI Shotshell rimfire round.
mole trapper replied to mole trapper's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Just thought, some of you may have seen them in your local gun shop, they have a silver case with what looks like a blue clear neurofen capsule on the end filled with tiny bearings, come in flat boxes containing twenty rounds and cost a packet. Thanks for that Stork, who is he a retailer or gunshop owner. ?. Regards MT. -
Anyone know where i can buy these, they are great when i have pigeon or squirrel jobs in confined spaces like lofts or chimneys, had loads of them, but recently had a lot of call for them and suddenly find myself out of them. Can not buy them from my usual supplier as he no longer stocks cci. Got to give CCI their due, they make some usefull stuff, forinstance the 30 ft lbs sub,s i was trying back in the summer on a couple of rabbit jobs where a normal sub would have been to much gun, the only thing against those was that they were solids. Regards MT.

I've got several, I'll dig them out and photo them dreckly. D. DYTKOS, easy mate, let me have a rummage through that lot before you throw yourself to the wolves, you would be suprised how much some can be worth. See ya tommorrow or day after.

tunnel size mk1V fenn trap
mole trapper replied to agreen's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
You will work out the measurements you need by first setting your trap, this will give you the width, do not forget to allow for three quarters of an inch for the safety catch, then release the trap and you will have your height, allow about three quaters of an inch above that, the tunnel itself should be around two and a half feet long if it is going to be a run through or about eighteen inches if a dead end. Hope that is of some use, do not forget to push a couple of sticks in front to stop larger and non target species entering the tunnel.
