mark williams 7,549 Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 The wood pigeons are starting to show and land in and amongst the crops. I`m wanting to beat my personal best of 72, in one sitting, with a spring rifle this year. Here`s one of my permissions, I`ve been nowhere near it for a month and things are lively but settled. The point of this flight pond is dense in cover and I`m seriously considering setting my ambush point and half wheel decoy pattern there to the front of it. The pigeons have a flight line following the pylons behind and are peeling off and landing into the already feeding birds now before the harvest. Notice the damage to the crops already ? I`ve ranged this spot to 52 yds max` and I will be calibrated near and far, - far will be 38 yds zero, 52 yds is precisely 1 mill dot hold over. Frozen decoys and cradles are ready. atb Mark. 5 Quote Link to post
Rimfireboy! 1,463 Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 72 is a fine score with any air rifle Mark. Usually only get those numbers of pigeon with a shotgun. 1 Quote Link to post
