Gamegetter 128 Posted December 29, 2018 Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) Well after all the festivities, I decided to hit the woods with my .177 fx wildcat hopefully to bag a squirrel or two . Got to the woods at just gone 8am and me and the dog settled in beside an old oak tree overlooking a few ivy clad beech trees . Digging out the squirrel call and giving a few blasts on that eventually a nice size buck squirrel came into view , the dog spotted it first though ! He loves them . Zapped the squizzer with the range finder 37 yards and dropped it with a JSB to the nogging ☺and a nice retrieve the the dog . piccy below https://i.ibb.co/M6kK4DD/image.jpg Edited December 29, 2018 by Gamegetter Added photo 4 Quote Link to post

Gamegetter 128 Posted December 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Thanks lads for the comments . I love the wildcat never had any so called fx problems at all . Cocks smooth and shoots spot on ☺ Got the synthetic stock camo dipped, added a hugget shroud / moderator , Harris 6-9" swivel bipod , adjustable butt pad and topped of with a Falcon 18+ 4-18 ×44 scope Mike 1 Quote Link to post
Deker 3,450 Posted December 29, 2018 Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Have I missed something, is it just me that thinks they should have found a way to mount the scope closer to the barrel. Seems far to high for my liking which simply makes for harder shot compensation! Quote Link to post
the cobra 269 Posted December 29, 2018 Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Nice shot just started useing the wildcat myself in 22 only had one day out so far Quote Link to post
