Thl Catty Shot Of The Month
Kemperz21 replied to youcanthide...BANG's topic in Catapult & Slingshot Hunting
So when are we starting it this month or for oct ? I'm going to have a go tomorrow ;-) and try upload a vid that will be harder that pulling off a good shot :-) -
I've had a quick go without straws just pushing a screwdriver into the damp sand makes a nice neat hole for the lead to be poured the problem I've encounterd is the same as when making fishing leads when making leads in a mould the first lot from a cold mould are crap hollow then as the mould heats up the leads get better and better this it because the lead sets on the surface and doesn't fill the void properly so in the end Ive started by putting the mould in the oven for 15 min just to heat it up so the lead has time to fill the void completely problem I have Is how do I heat a bucket of san
-
Yes I suppose the straw is just used to make the shape. right I might give this a go today and let you know
-
You think so ? I make fishing weights out of lead in moulds and it's super bloody hot for 10 15 seconds straws in sand might work if sand was soaked with ice cold water but it's getting the lead into the straws can you get a funnel small enough ?
-
Think it's about 10mm off the top of my head a mates making the mould for me very simple to make if your an engineer :-) just a block of stainless steel drilled out with a larger bore hole at the top to funnel in the lead then it's cut down the centre to allow for removal then I cut the rod to required lengths in theory it works ;-)

I'm in how far ? 10m ? Once we get it going and have interest I've seen an entry to online catty comp on Facebook we could copy we could use a standard bisley target that's numbered rings you can buy anywhere for a quid for 10 or 20 can't remember have 4 shots at same target combined score entered into monthly comp -
Yes why not shot of the month / pic of the month I / catty of the month have a few different things going on I think it would be good for the forum I'm on almost every day sometimes few times a day and very few new posts in this section
-
I had a mooch over on the slingshot forum and saw they have a monthly nominations for best catty and alike think it would be good to maybe try somthing like that on here ? Any ideas? maybe not the same but somthing to work towards each month show off your creations get hints and tips from more experienced catty makers any takers ? I'd contribute pics of my creations and I'm not very good at all maybe get a mod to pin a topic each month and we can upload pics

9.5 mm ss is a little light as I've found unless ur good with head shots even then I hit a bunny in the head with 1 it just jumped an buggared off lol
-
Hate these threads so sad to hear bump
-
Try eBay there's loads of diff types on there also try your local fishing tackle shop I've been looking into useing them for single bands no good looped as there pre cut more expensive but if you just want to try them worth a go
-
Just what I was thinking of using looped tubes as thismorning hit a bunny at 10m ish square in the side of the head with single tbg and a 9.5steel he flipped over got back up an buggerd off couldn't belive it I'm going to try doubling them up for now but think I'll try tubes soon

Bit Of Info On The Law Regarding Slingshots/cattys
Kemperz21 replied to Kemperz21's topic in Catapult & Slingshot Hunting
Yes I know but a catty has a whole lot more power than say an air pistol that comes under laws that say no shooting within so many feet/ meters of a public highway didn't know if it was the same with a slingshot -
