Forgot The Sticks

Recommended Posts

Been given another three fields last week about 200 acres all together ,the farm said loads of the young shoots have been eaten ,he wasn't far wrong an area about 80m x 100m had been eaten Wright down to the soil on one of the fields .

I haven't gone out shooting for a few weeks because of work , weather and other things ,so decided to go out , packed the gun and shooting sticks ,( you know the ones :laugh: ) and set off ,arrived at the field took the new BSA ultra regged by XTX AIR

out ,locked the van and went marching off in to the field , then realised I forgot the Gen2 shooting sticks .

 

Very windy night coming from the south west so kept my range down to 40 yards , in fact the wind helped a lot to night they could not here me ,the nearest shot came at 30 yards and the furthest 40 yards ,with the other two at 33 and 38 yards

Just shows no need for shooting sticks ,waste of £83 :laugh:

The wind would have made things even harder off sticks anyway, probably just as well you left them in the truck, at least you knew where they were..... I've got an expensive habit of leaning them up against a bush/ tree or by a gralloch site and then never seeing them again.... or just propping them against the truck when packing up and then reversing over them.

That's poo

If you had used 177 , there would be 8 at the gate ! Lol

Nice going Mitch , just one question, why have you got the t20 off set , do you not have to widen the beam to get central to your target ?

Nice bit of kit them 870s

Atb

It was .177 ,B20 looks off set but its not .

I thought the N550 was good but 870 is really great

Nice shooting.

 

What sort of shot count do you now get from the tuned Ultra and what else did you have done apart from the reg.

 

Phil

The shot count is still 42 had the reg and a tune from XTX AIR

I am going to get a bigger cylinder and a shroud from ratworks in the next week

I will be really interested in your results. I have spoken to Phil Crampton at Ratworks, what a nice guy, I plan to get an Ultra .22 for ratting and it will go to Phil for the work or I will get one from him.
