  1. Hi lads how are you all? Im sorry as im sure this question has been asked a thousand times over!,ive been reading up and looking at reloading for the last few days and it really caught my eye.Im soon applying for my fac and would want to reload my own ammo. The calibers im most likely to want are .17HMR and .204 My questions are, What equipment would i need? ive looked a touch into machines and the progressive machines have taken my eye,i had a look at the dillon machines but these seem a tad expensive. For all the equiptment i will have about 300 possibly 400 depending. Im not to worrie
  2. my pleasure pal nowt left of the crow ,and i aint ever seen a milk bottle run so i am most deffinately lucky to have found someone like derwin willing to take me along ,as ive always wanted to shoot fac but always thought it was out of reach,i also aggree that it would make more young lads/lasses appreciate things a hell of alot more,its so much better getting out rather than sitting in all the time hope you enjoyed my post mate. i remember when i was 1st applying for fac brad. one of the lads off a different forum invited me over to his permission in hereford. s

  4. nice one moley i went out for half hour on my own early hours sunday morning and it was crap couldnt see 10 meters infront of u with the red filter or without lol,although earlyer in the day i had a cracking few hours target shooting the remington 700 .204 and T3 .308 ....hopefully get out tomorow night if weather prevails,just have tonnes of revision for gcse's to complete in my week off now shame all i want to do is shoot lol nice job mate SPA Brad.
  5. thanks jamie,only recently got back into shooting and now firearms and shotguns have put a whole new perspective and interest into my shooting and enjoyment of it ! cant wait to apply for my fac and sgc Brad.
  6. Hi lads ,how are you all?? i was in work saturday morning when i got a text from Derboy saying he was going out for an hour or two shooting and he was happy for me to join him,i quickly obliged and he kindly picked me up at half one from my house. He said we could do some target practice so we filled some milk cartons and coke bottles with water. We soon arrived at the farm and had a quick chat with the farmers wife ,sally. We then pulled down behind one of the barns ,and were overlooking 2 banked fields,after five minutes derwin quickly spotted a crow at a good 250 yards,got him in the si

  11. will do mate ,i had 2 runners last night and the others were out of range even though i managed to stalk one to about 35 meters which wasnt bad considering it was a still night.
  12. think ill give that a go mate cheers Brad.
  13. very good shooting lads! well done Brad.
  14. hi steve mate thank you very much,will be sure to let u no when it arrives. hi gav,i only went out for 20 mins on one of my field mate i saw about 3-4 bugs but couldnt get a decent shot on any of them :/ need a bi pod me thinks lol ill let u no if im planning on going out anytime soon Brad.

  17. Hi lads,the rabbits my way are starting to turn a tad lamp shy so it was time for a red filter but i really didnt want to spend about £15 posted on one as im a bit skint ,so i decided to make one. Heres some pics ,it certainly isnt pretty but it works just as good as any red filter ive ever used First i made a template around 2mm bigger than the lamp so i could fold it over as to not let light excape. then i drew it on the red filter stuff :L i also made 4 tabs on there so i could fix it to the lamp better. then i taped it on lol it is surprisingly bright and ideal with the dimme
  18. hello brad, basejumper currently of on his jollies,so i'll answer your question mate. he picked it up of fleabay for about 70notes, you dont want to no how much they are new,if folds down into a backpack which is handy. Andy hi andy, thanks for the reply mate,that seems a bargain imo,i wouldnt mind picking one up myself,think it would be a massive help at the alotment permission atb Brad.
  19. haha yes mate,hopefully get out soon again! Brad.
  20. even though nothing in the bag it was still a productive night ,sharpened my knife haha had a little chat about guns etc.which probably didnt help lol anyways i think if we setup a different vantage point possibly from the same position but behind some decent cover.As your dad was saying,i think getting on top of that container would be a perfect VP if only it was 10yards closer is i would say its a decent 50m to the run entrance. Also did you get hold of mr.beeman after? hopefully we can get some permission on that farm next door as i think we will have alot more luck shooting from that s
  21. hi mate looks bloody brilliant how much was it and where did you get it from pal ? Brad.
