  1. So, it was walkies time. The dog was excited, my wellies were on, the rifle was on my back and pumped up. I had all but one thing. Pellets. I checked my shooting jacket and cursed. I only had 5 left (I didn't have time to buy any at the weekend). I decided to go anyway in the hope of getting a rabbit or Pigeon for the ferrets to nosh on. As I approached the boundary of my permission, I slipped the beautiful S200 from it's case, loaded a pellet into the chamber and placed my slip behind it's usual bush. I prowled for a bit before noticing, across the other side of the field, a dying tree fu
  2. I personally own an Air Arms S200 .22, first air rifle I bought. Took Oxfordshire Junior County Champion in the 25m Air rifle centre 5 shot grouping as a result. I love it. Although, the cadet air rifle team have their own air rifles provided for free (but only used in target shooting for competition, not hunting sadly ) and we get to choose, I favoured the S410 in .177 and I've won 16 out of 17 competitions I shot in. (And as a side note, I also "own" my own L98A2 (5.56mm) Assault rifle with a SUSAT Scope, which is my pride and joy). Atb, Bunny.
  3. Define the term "cheap"? I have an air arms S200 with pump etc. for £400. Atb, Bunny
  4. Welcome. I come from your area. Moved to Oxfordshire recently though. There's a few estate shoots towards Tarpoly and Nantwich if you fancy paying the £30 a bird or whatever it is now. Atb, Bunny.
  5. Looking more for £400. Would you be able to face to face pick up? ATB, Bunny
  6. Good job guys. Wanted to get out today too, but nobody to tag along with and didn't fancy setting 10-15 hole buries on my own (hard work). Will just have to hang about until the mates head out. Atb, Bunny.
  7. Welcome. Most people join with the hope of learning and sharing knowledge, so you should get on well with everyone (apart from the annoying people who only come on to boast, bullshit or wind up). Hope to see you about! Atb, Bunny.
  8. Hey Guys and gals. Not really using my S200 any more as I am going to College. And too many people have been time wasters. Need to sell this rifle now, so asking for £350. What the sale consists of is: Air Arms Mk2 S200 Rifle Simmons White tail 3.5x10x40 scope Hills pump Gunslip Air arms moderator Good Condition, just needs a bit of gun oil on the bolt as it can stick once in a while. This will be for pick up only really unless you live local to Oxford, then dropping it off may be an option for me. Excuse the poor quality, my camera is a bit Rubbish. http://imagesha
  9. Okay, thank you guys. atb, Bunny.
  10. JBSnets are good. I use the 10z 1 metre nets and they're £15 for 10 an £5 for postage on everything, so if you can, buy 20 or 30 to save on paying postage later on. Atb, Bunny.
  11. I have a friend (more of an acquaintance) that wants to sell me a mk1 and collar for £50. I'm not entirely sure on the prices of mk1's, so can anyone offer advice on this? Many thanks and atb, Bunny.
  12. Aye, all my mates spend a Saturday in Sainsbuy's listening to the checkout beeps, whilst I listen to rabbit squeaks, and at the end of the day, I've had more fun, and usually earned more money than them... It's all good. ATB, Bunny.
  13. Also, if she's white or albino, it'll be a lot more pronounced because of her fur colour, whereas cuts look less serious on poleys etc. ATB, Bunny.
  14. I'm a 17 year old lad. Curry won't buy me beer. Besides, it's game pie for me, and I make small ones for myself because my family are nancy pancy "clean" meat eaters. I.e they prefer roast pork to a rabbit because rabbit is too rich for them. They're the same with all game... Pheasant, partridge, venison, pigeon, rabbit... Gaylords. Atb, Bunny.
  15. Can I assume you keep all the rabbit meat for yourself ?? Yea, They go to the butchers. If I get one that's particularly small or young, the ferrets get it. I like to try and vary the day to day food of them, because if it was me, I'd get bored of the same meal every day, so why wouldn't ferrets? ATB, Bunny.
  16. What is this term I keep hearing about the "Fluffy Brigade"? I thought it was just a term used to describe people who owned animals as pets as opposed to working animals, but then I saw it used in a few different contexts where that wouldn't of made sense... Atb, Bunny.
  17. I personally don't give mine rabbit "meat". I have so much in the form of off cuts, bird carcass and squirrel I never need to. They always get the lungs, liver, heart and kidneys from my rabbits, which get frozen in meal size portions, as well as me throwing in fresh eggs for calcium (they eat the shell) and protein. Plenty of fat around the kidneys on the winter Bunnies. Squirrels are shot regularly by me and I do beating at least once a week so they get a brace of pheasant carcass to nosh on. I have a little section in the hutch which they can only get to through about 2m of tubing snaked ar
  18. For a truly portable and effective hide, I use a military DPM (disruptive pattern material) basha, available online or in army surplus and mountain warehouse, with camo netting hung over the front. It's dry, doesn't rustle and you could sleep until it (the army do, and I have shot 4 days straight under that thing with gas cookers). All you need is: 1 Military DPM Basha 4-8 Bungie cords 2 Tent Pegs 1 Camo net Lie the basha out and bungie the front to two trees/fence posts. Add bungies to the rear of the basha and peg them as tight as possible like a tent sheet. Take another bungie and
  19. If the patch of fur missing is large, and there is a scab, I wouldn't work her until it has healed and the hair will grow back. If it's a small patch, it may just be rough and tumble. A picture of it would help let us know what it is though... ATB, Bunny
  20. Ferrettingggg. Need to get out the house, nobody to go with. :( BOOHOO.

  21. Sounds like its missing a nip of some kind of alcohol? Maybe. Try and experiment? My household doesn't really have alcohol in it. Parents aren't the hunting crowd, nor the alcoholic, so I miss out on things like sloe gin. ATB, Bunny.
  22. There, I revealed it.. It's lush. atb, Bunny.
  23. So, has anyone heard of this? I know what it is made of, but I was wondering if anyone else did or if the guy I found it from just made a name up for it. It is rather delicious, and it consists of simple stock juice, either sunday roast juices or an oxo cube with a friendly amount of tabasco sauce. That's it. It sounds pretty gross to some, but it is one of the most amazing flavours. I even take it skiing now in place of soup. The tabasco warms you up. Atb, Bunny.
