  1. So I should look at .223 then as I am in West Yorkshire constabulary and they see this as a fox caliber ?
  2. Is the 223 noticeably quiter than 22-250 even with top notch moderators ?
  3. Quality surprised the did not notice that blunder
  4. Did not realise the difference in 22-250 to 223 never seen them side by side like that
  5. So I could go on one of them stalking holidays if I got a 243 ?
  6. So we are saying 243 is ok for fox and rabbit if needed and if I get into deer that too once I have done the course
  7. Got a new perm got asked to shoot the usual rabbit -fox explained I'll have to check what land is passed for as on a closed ticket . Rang the firearms office up they said its passed for .308 as you can imagine only having rim fire at the moment this came as a shock that put a grin on my face as I had previously gone through all the rigmarole of going out shooting Center fire and get someone to sign a letter that I had when I went for my 22-250 but was let down on the land . But now I can get a 308 should I ? I was thinking more like a 243 as they cost of running one would be better or is it t
  8. Happy days were you using subs as the other one did not take off ?
  9. I rang my fao to ask if land had been passed on my new perm they said it was just send a copy of permission in. I rang back the next day to inform them I had verbal permission only to which a different fao said the was passed for 22lr and if I verbal permission it was fine to shoot but try get it in writing as if I get stopped they have to then bother the land owner. I double checked saying " so I can shot my 22lr on the land with verbal permission only I am not breaking any law " his reply was "yes you are fine to shoot with verbal permission only. The law states as long as your using the cor
  10. Big buggers them things the look like they stink too good write up bud

  12. Found this one on eBay do you think it will do the job ? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=151630963953
  13. Well I remember to check his gun this week it is a mark 2
  14. I was going off the bbc weather app so it looks like it's time for a wind meter
  15. Went out other day on a windy day to get an idea of point of aim set up my 1 inch sticky target on my zero bit of field. Now I do need to get s wind meter as I was going off my weather app which said 17mph winds set up at 55yard to get a idea was surprised it was not too bad at 100 yards it was out by a mil dot I thought this was ok for said wind speed
  16. Normally have a tin in the gun slip just to make sure
  17. I like both anything better than eastenders on the box but I did post it in shooting section so should kind of expect to see shooting related stuff
  18. Got a new one already passed and one of Guys I already shoot for has a few other fields that are not passed as for a new shooter it would be a risk as it would only be safe to shoot 1 way sat from 1 place as sufficient back stop is limited. Also got another perm that the farmer said I can shoot but would need a open ticket as he don't want the police round.
  19. Got on to him today and his mate also had open ticket and has permission from land owner to take a guest on so I have taken his word for it and it's his licence end of day if I were him I would want to here it from land owner or see it in writing as I value my licence and have been on the phone to West Yorkshire police today who said for me to get an open licence I should wait 18 months but I mentioned I had already shot 700 rounds with in 9 month of been given my licence so was then told wait till September (1year) then send licence in with covering note to see if it is granted
  20. Hi guys got in to a debate at work with another bloke that shoots about having a open ticket I have a closed one at the mo so I have to send a signed permission in to police if land is passed or If not request them to check land first . He has a open ticket said he had to wait 18 month but now it's granted he can shoot where he has permission with out any checks but can shoot on other peoples land as long as they ( the permission holder ) are with him like. Now I thought you still had to send In signed permission slips to the police and did not know you could go on other peoples land as a
  21. Should have put "don't try this at home " at the beginning maybe? but as title states it is a shooting from Landy vid not a field craft vid but I will have a bash at a field craft vid
  22. Not sure which one it is will find out know he has had it years and it is his pride and joy
  23. Went out with my uncle on his permission which has a large private driveway which means we can shoot from my Land Rover filmed it on my phone and then had a play with it on movie editor only short but here is the link
