First Time In A Long Time


Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone. I say good morning as it's nearing 2am.

 

I am out ratting as I usually do...well I say usually but I've not been out shooting for a while. But my usual shooting involves myself, my trusty ratcatcher, and rats down a chicken farm.

 

Having hit double figures, lay on the floor, aiming down an egg-belt, a massibe moth decides to fly right up my nose. This forced a fit of sneezing which inevitably has scared off a load of rats. So I have a minimum 20 minute wait until another rat shows it's face...so I thought I'd show my face and say Hi....Hi.

 

My project has passed the proof of concept round and has ended up with me buying a little Hatsan as the workhorse of the project. This has proven to be a crap purchase as tthe reload now involves many more moving parts. However...I can remote feed the view down the scope to my laptop. Tried this out with a mate. Then tested it in field. I can see on the screen, realtime, while my mate can sit at home and see the same thing with just under a half second delay! I'm tempted to do live action ratting amd give everyone with a Mac the details of how to watch....but not quite yet. Need to test a few more bits.

 

But anyway, out ratting tonight, at 11 so far, mostly in the same area of the belt. One bad hit, 2 dropped into the poop pit. But wjoever is picling ehgs tomorrow is going to hate me haha.

If you were down this way mate, I'll let you have a pop. Only problem is you'll be stinking of chicken poo, the ammonia stench will burn out your sense of smell if you shoot there too often, and...it's bloody addictive mate.
