Stavross 13,544 Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Me and longshanx took ourselves out for a walk to a spot I haven’t been for a while, few hoppers about and he managed 4, two of them we couldn’t find as they were in the hedge backs but I’m sure a ginger will find them and put them to good use 4 Quote Link to post
David.evans 5,323 Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Fair play to you two going out in this weather , I presume the snow hasn't hit up your way yet good shooting lads atb 2 Quote Link to post
Stavross 13,544 Posted January 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 No snow yet on the lower ground but it is a bit fresh, I almost had to put a jumper on 2 Quote Link to post
Longshanx 832 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 It’s going to be even fresher tonight? just checked the weather and it’s going to hit -4 where we are going tonight. Us northerners are certainly not fair weather shooters, not like you Dave 1 Quote Link to post

Davetyler 26 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I love it, i shot my dads 12 month [BANNED TEXT] getting mine and it demolishes anything i go to shoot. Is that a 22 that you are holding? Sak mod syn stock and 16" barrel? It looks like my 17 Quote Link to post
Stavross 13,544 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Yes mate that will be the longshanx with his Cz .22 in the spec you said, we both shoot 17’s as well, him with a posh tikka T1x and I have a browning T bolt and a Cz both in 17, they are all very accurate rifles 1 Quote Link to post
Davetyler 26 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I was looking at the t bolt before i bought my cz and a mate of a mate had one and it kept jamming and as he pushed the bolt forward it went off. I dont think for the price you can beat a cz Quote Link to post
Stavross 13,544 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) You won’t buy a better rimfire than a Cz, I’ve had no bother with the browning but it was a lot more money than the Cz and is no better Edited January 30, 2019 by Stavross 1 Quote Link to post
Gav 1,708 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I'd love a bit of sport here, every time I've been out I'm just walking up and putting them out of thier misery. The crows are eating them alive. I've popped hundreds over the last few months just owe them that after the sport I've had out of them over the years. Think I recognize the t-bolt and SAK mod? You been in my cabinet 1 Quote Link to post

Sad times Gav, I’ve had a few in a couple of places around here where you could just pick them up and no matter where I go the numbers are low 1 Quote Link to post
Longshanx 832 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I was thinking of taking the 17 for an outing tonight but ended just taking the 22 and yes DT it’s the CZ 455 16” synthetic with Sak mod. Taking the 17 out on Saturday to see if I can pick a few crows off. Looking forward to shooting it as it’s a cracking rifle. Temperature got down to -5? tonight, not many crop munchers on the farm so had a look in the rape field, spotted about 7 or 8 knocking about but natures own early warning system ( frozen rape crunching under foot ) gave me away. Next time we’re up Stav we’ll spend a bit of time on the rape, seen a few new diggings about all along the hedgerow Quote Link to post
