Good link scuba, but i dont think thats what foxy force 1 was reffering to, i think the ones asked about are the cylindrical ones with two flap doors and one solid end that you use to shove into rabbit holes when ferreting on your own, you put them on one side to catch the rabbits and the ferret if it comes out while you watch conventional nets on the otherside. There is some good footage of these in action on ed cookes rabbiting dvd. foxy force i think you will find that you will have to get these made up or do it yourself as these are not an off the shelf item, if you however find someone

Smackum down who keepers not far from me saw roe rutting twice nearly a fortnight ago, personally i havent seen any yet. Would imagine we would be earlier down here as it has been so mild.

Titchy, would,nt want to piss on your fireworks but are you sure using snares on a golf course is the best way of going about it, A few things to consider, firstly you are asking to buy snares, that would imply you have little if any experience of using them, such a public place is not an ideal location to start learning. Snaring is once again under the spotlight, people dont like seeing rabbits dancing around in wires all bug eyed or strangled etc, i have met some of my most aggresive antis on golf courses that i preform rabbit and mole clearance on. You say that you have landed your first r

Springers should not be confused with cheap shit imports, i run a 100 MK 6s that are catching rabbits almost full time as yet no probs, they have been in the ground most of the time for the past 10 months.

.22 Rimfire 'SHORT' Ammunition
mole trapper replied to Yokel Matt's topic in Reloading and Gun Maintenance
Come on MC, keep up. The shorts have a very marked trajectory, we did some crude tests a couple of weeks ago, at a twenty yard zero spot on back to fifty yards they were dropping four inches, went out lamping and gave them a whirl, at fifty yards aiming at the tips of adult rabbits clean head shots every time, interestingly also every one was a pass through. Just finishing the slab of 500 now, wont be buying more of them but when the hollow points come out i will try them. Deffinetly have a use and as i said before, so so quiet. There were a few feed issues even in my Brno B/A, bolt could -
.22 Rimfire 'SHORT' Ammunition
mole trapper replied to Yokel Matt's topic in Reloading and Gun Maintenance
Local Yocal, i am trying these out at the moment on a couple of caravan and camping site rabbit jobs, they are soooo quiet, still ricochet off hard ground though like a conventional higher powered sub, shame they arent hollow points, apparently though someone is in the process of manafacturing them. 30 ft lbs with a 29 grn soft hollow point through a rimmy, lubbly jubbly on more sensative rabbit jobs. -
Absolutley right Richie, and it is still for sale.

Due to buying nv set up some things that are not essential to my business must go, so last week i took delivery of a .22 bsa tactical xl, it has a ags 3-9 x 40 compact scope on board, i have put around a hundred pellets through it the afternoon i zeroed it, will try to get some piccys up tomorrow, it will come with a couple of tins of pellets.

Happy birthday you lot, John just realised youre nearly as old as me, just thought i would point that out. :clapping: :clapping:

Snoopdog your right it is the mutts nuts, but it is as simple or as complicated as you want it to be. There is a dial on the top that you set different modes etc, to be honest it is so clever it can be set on automatic, ie it figures everything out itself and you still get top quality images, the lenses can be used on manual or motorised on auto focus they are Sooooo quick, i took a load of shots of diving stunt kites, apparently they were travelling at silly speeds like well over a hundred miles an hour and they were frozen sharp and clear as can be. The APO bit for those who dont know means

Chalky, you are a very naughty boy, now go and sit out in the corridor, PS i hate trappers to. :clapping:
-
Got to give MC his due, hes not just a pretty face.
-
My god, it is true they run brain washing courses now, no offence but you sound like you just come out of intensive training, lighten up, this aint the shopping channel.
-
CHALKY i was thinking if it was only 400 mole hills and i got my traps in ok, that i would be expecting 100%, obviously i was right in thinking gas really aint all it is cracked up to be. Sounds like you would be getting a lot of call backs with that stuff.

Only 4 mole jobs this week, you wait till you go full time, one mans phostoxin is another mans talunex, each to their own.
-
OK if i lost my ability to make a living out of trapping moles and was unable to relearn it again and i could find no alternative employment other than sticking gas down holes i would choose Phostoxin because it is £18. a tube + vat as opposed to talunex being £21.00 + vat. There you go we have a winner.
-
Selling a lot to local pubs and resturants at the moment, only get £1.50 but better than burying them, also the dogs and ferrets are getting through a lot at the moment, especially with all the young ferrets i am bringing on.
-
TRAPS, feck the gas and poison, gas expensive, unreliable, got to be done in the dry, crap.Traps are the winner hands down all round.
-
So glad to hear that i am not the only one with these problems, i rigged a net up a couple of weeks ago, first outing it all fell apart, , from now on i will just stick to buying my nets ready rigged from Gypo Joe off here.

Chris Jones and Mistwalker i applaud you, , rational comments. Chris you say about how people have changed and people are just sitting back and watch drivvle on the telly, you have hit the nail on the head perfectly, there is a connection, people have in my opinion been adversly affected by television, told what to think if you like, no i am not a crank just a realist, until the invention of the telly we were a world power a war faring nation to be reckoned with, our fore fathers would not have sat back and wrung their hands and said oh dear to this sort of thing going on in their back yard,
