Another cracking two days

[bigmac 97kt 13,730]

At si,s set off from mine at 4am picked a mate up that was going to see his sister in hospital at Scarborough

got to his drop off at 630am and to si,s not long after that we had a bit of a crack over bacon ,,black pudding,,sausage,,egg sandwiches

He then cronoed the blue 97 177 for me she is sitting at 11,98 fb   so close to the limit lol

We were going to go for a play with the 223 but it started p*ssing down so called a day on that

we hit one perm to set the rifles up for the night shoot but yes it started p*ssing down again

so that was put on hold until night time .

Any way to cut a long day short ...We hit the perm around 5,,6ish set the rifles up and off we went

rifles were hw97 177 the blue

and hw97 177 ks

both performed with out fault and si got the first not long after that i got the next 

later on i layed in wait for them using the vangaurd porter aim

got to say the 97 off the porteraim is second to none what a bit of kit it is bit of a faff to carry round mind but its a must for any spring rifle

its like having a pod for a spring rifle that dose not jump like most pods on a springer .

any way we finished with 22 rabbits picked up ten left the others for mr fox

we headed back to si,s and on the way got a parmasan from hell each

off to bed at 12ish back up at 5am and out again to another perm using the 97 blue and the fac impact ,25 and si,s new shot gun

finished around 10,30 and headed back to sis for another bacon sandwich before picking my mate back up and heading home

What a couple of days iv had and with a family friend good shooting good banter and a few laughs

(laughs at my expense)

Every time i go to si,s im made welcome even if its not to go shooting but a week end on the p*ss or just to chill

he is one in a million is our si,brown

Thanks mate your ACE

Lets put it this way LJ my mate was using it last night with the 97ks blue 177

using just one hand and the fore stock resting on the porter,,aim and hitting shot gun cartridges out to 18yrds thats as far as my shooting range go,s at home 

But at SI,s perm i was shooting out to 40,,,50 yrds with the 97 and it was like using a pcp

Loads of lads using them at the shooting range as well thats where i first saw one

i highly recommend one LJ

have a good look at ebay mind some are expensive 6o+ and even 70+ but i found mine for £48 

so pays to look around i think amazon do them for around the £48 mark to

money well spent if you ask me

Si was that impressed with it he is on about getting one for his 223

PS,,,dont use the Velcro straps to fasten the rifle down mind

I was shocked to how well made they are.. they dont look much in a photo but there sturdy as fcuk and spot on for springers if you can be bothered to lug stuff about!

I've got sticks and stuff but they rarely make it out of the car boot, got given a gizmo to test for the shop a few weeks back!!

that's still in the boot
