  1. Sounds a good little hunt,lucky to get a second shot after all that but made it count and bagged one so well done...
  2. Hi all I've made a couple of wines and got the bug so picked up some more bits to help me and one of these was a hydrometer,now I used the tube to help understand using one and thought I had it so took some just made carrot wine,before adding yeast,and popped it in,I got a reading of 1.112,does this seem about right as an average og? I know it depends on the ingredients and such but would like an idea if possible?
  3. Been wanting to try this for a while and had some time today so had a bash,used the search bar but could d no recipes so googled one and have made it using that one tonight,here's a few pics of the preparing, It's now in the bucket for a week's primary and goes in the demijohn next,I'll update if there's any interest, here's the recipe and method for anyone interested...Carrot wine. 2kg carrots 1kg sugar 300 grams sultanas Juice/peel of two lemons Wine yeast and nutrient Scrub the carrots and slice fairly thinly then roughly chop.Boil 1 gallon of water and the
  4. What goes through someone's mind to come up with and carry out this sort of crime,its so personal and invasive I should think it would mentally scar the victims,probably for ever,the punishment for these sort of crimes don't make it worth even considering but they seem to happen all the time,sad world...
  5. thinks this basically depends on two things,a;whether it's full on pest control or more hobby and 2;how much there is on the land to control/hunt,i personally do more hobby end so take a little at a time,keeping the numbers lower but enough to keep hunting,if you see what i mean,in answer to your question,i don't give a breather,just hunt more or less intense depending on whats on the land,some species ie rat or squirrel id hit hard every time...
  6. For god's sake its gone on long enough and got so out of hand it's becoming a joke,its about time the truth was told and if you don't like it tough luck,he was smashed up and mugged and left for dead and I know this for a fact as I'm one of the lurchermen that did it,I'm not proud of what I did but times were hard and an easy opportunity presented itself,his account is completely true and all who have questioned and doubted owe him a massive apology,now the truth is out I feel much better and am prepared to take the consequences fully,I sincerely apologise for the trouble my actions have cause

    Bear Grylls

    And as he's made more and more money he's been able to stay in better and better hotels Joke by the way,don't watch his stuff so can't comment,as my wife tells me when I'm crabbing all this reality TV or adverts,you'd do it for the money they get...
  8. bet you are glad you stayed and tried,nice hours shooting,think id of bashed some targets from the shelter of the shed as well...
  9. going to have a look what ive got to stick in the pot now...
  10. there was some cracking banter and laughs; as normal another good night, with cracking company: the results count for nowt.
  11. Sounds like you are enjoying this project,good luck with it and when you're happy stick some pics up,be interested to see what it shoots like too,never really played with one (must be the only person on thl that can say that?)
  12. Good afternoons shooting,looking at those two rifles makes me think the cricket is almost unnecessarily uncomfortable to shoot,I mean the mag and bolt are under your cheek,that could just be a nicely shaped cheek piece? It's the same length more or less as your rapid so a carbine of some sort would be the same,but probably shoulder better? Bet the rapid is accurate out to 60 as well though hey,but each to their own
  13. On topic did you all get a few shots off or is it a whoever sees one situation,do you stay in one group or separate? Sometimes tactics,timing and luck all play a part... And chin up little hunter,rough with the smooth kid...
  14. Why not get the gun and go out,do well,bag up,hit everything,push the limit,post pics,show off and just to frustrate those who want to know,keep the calibre a secret?
  15. My mate has a mk3 shrouded barreled one I'd have it in a heartbeat,like a rapid but I'd say better put together,i suppose like what a rapid would be like if they were made now somehow,regulated as well,300 seems OK as you get a lot of gun (if that's even possible?) For your money...
  16. So you've joined the infamous twat club? T shirts in the post with your membership pack and badge... Enjoy!!
  17. Good going,little things can make a big difference, having confidence in your set up is important and the results kind of show it,nice bag too...
  18. I'll look in the classifieds in a week or two and find out what it was!!
  19. Nice few bunnies there,not what you set out for but I bet you weren't moaning about carrying them back...
  20. I'm thinking three numbers,110??
  21. I'm trying to get some time up a farm to get the distance out further and I've yet to try jsb's,been using 15/16 grain and doing OK but think I'll go back to 14 now,don't know why just seem to be more confident in them...
