    I do enjoy your posts in the airgun section, a bit out of the ordinary. Air rifle hunting with a GSP as part of the team, great stuff.

    Hi EChe`ll sit by my side motionless all day although he will whimper very quietly to let me know he has spotted a presentation if I haven't once he's alerted me he locks onto the presentation and will only ever retrieve if commanded to.

     

    shooting from natural hides is the usual method.

    It wasn't a comment on how/why some make old bones, ideally they all would, just on how it tends to often work out. Sod's Law or bad luck? Might just be me. - when my old mate stops barking and refuses my call to go out will be hi retirement day - he will tell me, here he is at 9 yrs old lads -he`s still very happy and very good at his job.fullsizeoutput_126.jpeg.c17d19add5dcae0b21c731fc4dceaa56.jpeg

    a spot of decoying , he might well be getting older but this fella would be jumping through the window if I went out without him,- he loves his work with his heart and soul x.

  4. nice works I try to keep good workable populations of rabbits myself rather than to just get rid of them, to see good healthy controlled rabbits is far better than none , compliments to you buddy  heres my gap marking a warren or two.

  5. Had the return of my HW 100 KT from a service the other day, had her since 2015 and still going strong.

                 Anyway thought I would swap the Mamba Lite scope over for the AirMax 6-24x50 scope, a little more weight for the static hunting off Primos Sticks a tad steadier.

                 Gave her a loose zero of 38 yards between showers, I`ll tighten that zero right up tomorrow.

     I`m still of the opinion that the HW100 is one of the best pcp`s at sub 12 level.

    atb, Mark.

    I love retirement it's the lack of income I don't like.

    Sorry to hear you have not been well Mark, I really hope you get back to being your old sarcastic self as soon as possible matey. 🙄 

    Phil

     

    Collecting and pinching scrap metal could never have made you lots of money Phil, unless you had kept with pinching lead off the church roofs.

                         Getting well ( I hope )Phil, thanks.

  8. Lovely calm evening tonight lads so " chill out time " practicing with the above.

    The new HW95 KL first.

    Finding this to be a hard hitting, very accurate rifle lads, she's already taken a lot of vermin.

    5p size groups all evening.

    Then the early MK2 HW77 Long .177 carrying the Sandwell stage 2 tune, another fine hunting rifle.

    5p groups all evening with ease,- loved it, good practice, good chill out.
