    I currently fly accipiters, but interested in getting a falcon, the lanner has caught my attention. However there seems very little about them being used for hunting. The research I have done suggests they catch birds in pursuit rather than a stoop. The pursuit falcon of choice seems to be the Aplomado, is there a reason why lanners aren’t used. Any help welcome.. Regards

    I've rarely cleaned it, as it was always accurate.. I had a bore snake in the cupboard and gave it a few pull throughs. That might have caused what you suggested deker. The POI moved and made a larger group. It seems back on song now, I will just leave it well alone.. I'm know cleaning can move POI as I copper brush etc my 308 however it rarely moves the POI that much and returns to zero after a couple of rounds.

    Read them all, defiantly sticking to the mk1, it's perfect.. Why did deben not stick with it or just make it again

    Just checking for your experience, I've got a 17 cz452 which has always shot accuratly and consistently. However I gave it three pull threws with a bore snake and the group was two inches low and larger for the first twelve shots, thankfully on a target board. Has anyone else experienced zero shift with the 17, it could have been conditions or me.

    The mk3 would have to be an amazing piece of kit to be better than the mk1. Mine is Bob on, I have 100 % confidence in it.. The only improvement I made was to wrap it in yellow tape so it's easier to spot and a little more water proof...

    Brilliant, thanks for the replies. I will stick them all together and only split them if it causes a major problem..

    I've bred my ferrets this year, I always use jills for my ferreting, I am thinking of keeping a hob back to keep the jills out of season. If I get it vasectomised can I keep it with my jills all year or will it need a seperate cage after its brought them out of season in summer.
  8. RIP.JD
    I can't believe exactly the same thing has happened to me, about four weeks ago both my Jills when AWOL. Found them both and thought nothing of it. I thought they were eating a lot, even said to the wife they look pregnant, but thought they can't be. I opened the hutch and one if not both have given birth. I'm in a rural location so must have something prowling.. I haven't seen a thing ?

    I'm not after one to start a business, just cut a few logs. You wouldn't buy a £2000 stereo if you just wanted to listen to radio 2 while you eat your toast before going to work...it's horses for courses

    My chainsaw has packed up can anyone suggest a good cheap one. Ideally 12+ inches. Just chopping up logs, nothing special required

    I've just bought A HAWK FOR THR BUSH BY MAVROGORDATO, to tie me over till I get the other titles suggested. I've had a quick read and appears a good. I got mine cheap of ebay and would recomend adding it to your collection. I'm sure most have it already.
  16. RIP.JD
    I don't mind buying them, it will add to the collection. Just not this week ?
  17. RIP.JD
    Currently saving up, they aren't cheap either ?... I will keep an eye out on E bay...

    No, it's currently in its third season... It's vocal at the minute, hopefully as its coming into breeding season. I think it might be coming to mine sooner than I though to moult out...

    I take it from that I will need it ?, it's all a challenge.

    Thanks for help, it's a bit of an unexpected project to be honest. She's already imprinted and no idea how she will handle or preform.. I Just hope it's possible to manage bad habits out if there are any. I'm positive she will be better off than were she was in any event
  21. RIP.JD
    Thankfully I don't have neighbours, just a wife who may moan more than neighbours ?... Not to worry, she will get used to it ?.. It's already imprinted so expecting worst, anything else is a bonus Thanks, I will get on Amazon... Regard

    The late great John Darling, loved his articles in Airgunner...I've still got his book I read dozens of times as a lad

    I wish you all the best, but I'd start knocking on farmers doors... It's taken me well over over ten years to get decent ground.. I assume most people with land have invested a similar amount of hard work building relationships up with land owners and are unlikely to allow others on ground...
