    Hi Rez / all, To hear a "pock" after being shot at by a HW 100 means the marksman is crap ! It is so hard to miss with a HW 100. In my humble opinion

    When shooting over decoys or ploughed land i am usually prone with the gun on a bipod and all camo`d up. When shooting wood pigeon/ sitty tree, i am sat in a hide with shooting sticks. Yes comfort is a major part. atb

    I would agree with pretty much every one`s comments on this topic but i would like to add a slight twist to it if i may. A sub 12 ft/lb rifle under house security and locked cabinet, any of us that have shotguns i think should be allowed up to a 15 - 18 ft/lb rifle on the shotgun licence after that limit back over to fac ticket. I agree with an earlier thread Simon (Pianoman) i think, 15 ft/lbs is perfect in .177. but with shotgun security rules. atb

    Just ploughed - shoot with the ploughing mate rather than across it, choose your spot and bait three furrows only. Bait the ploughing up for a week or two, (bread crumb), in the bottom of the furrows,(late evening) and drape a bit of camo netting over a plastic bucket or similar in or along the tree line, positioned running with the furrows and leave it there. By the time a week or so of baiting has passed, bait up as said again,(early morning) place a couple of corvid decoys away from the bait, swap the camo for yourself and rifle on a bipod properly camo`d u

    A good place to start the "learning process" with regards to snaring rabbits is along the fence lines Clabedoo, cut your teeth there. atb.

    Stunning rifle Mac. You have treated yourself well mate. I knew you would give in to a thumb hole stock sooner or later

    I use the Hawke sport HD 4-12 x 50 to great effect ,on my HW 100 ks I use the Mamba Lite MTC-SCB 4-12 x 40 on my .177 HW 100 kt - both scopes are excellent. I am sure i have read somewhere that the hawke scopes do not mix well with spring rifle recoil and can break ? I`m sure one of the lads will come along and put me right on this but i have read this somewhere. Take a look at Mamba Stingray, - they have "lock on" built into them . atb

    Took Kaiser out into the fields this morning for a three hour run around.He`s sleeping at my feet now As said, he was into everything and running all over the place as happy as a pup could get, into the numerous ponds, bushes, embankments etc , etc. I did get worried once or twice as he went ranging so far as to be nearly out of sight but he seems to realize after a while and comes running back. I put the re-call whistle in only when he is already running back. I`ll take him out again this afternoon over the local wildlife park/ lake on a long lead to socialize wit

    Hi mate - snaring rabbits is NOT rocket science and unbelievable at clearance. Lets stop here mate and go to trapping forums as these are shooting forums and i dont want to lead you astray. Good luck mate !

    Is it a "must shoot them" scenario clabedoo ? To clear rabbits" big style" - snares,- so, so, good at rabbit clearance. atb

    Hi mate , I would not offer, but i would present £225 in the palm of my hand and then say, " Best i can do, it is a better offer than a dealer will give you". " no friends in business Massa" Good luck !

    Hi mate, i hear no younger than 18 months before running a GSP on game ? is that correct ?
  25. mark williams
    Yes mate rough shooting with shot guns and some hide shooting with both shot gun and air rifles My pup certainly ranges but he does not know a gun yet, i am hoping he will put 2 and 2 together when he is old enough to hunt and realise a gun is his avenue to a bird in his mouth. My ground is hundreds of acres of open fields with good game numbers with plenty of wood pigeons about.
