Stavross 13,726 Posted March 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 All the feeders and drinkers gathered up, all the rubbish around the pens cleaned away and 32 cartridges picked up on my travels, even though I tell them to take them home with themseen about 40 pheasants, half a dozen partridges and 7 deer of different makes, spring is definitely here 8 Quote Link to post

Have you had them long or bought recently if you don’t mind me asking? My pal bought a brick of the 42’s at a similar time as me and they were shite as well. I think he said he’d moved onto rws now. I’m on SK’s at the moment and they’re spot on. The old blue box winnies were good though. 1 Quote Link to post

FOXHUNTER 5,020 Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Seeing as the sun was shining and the Mrs and daughter went out shopping I decided to do a recce on my local ground to see if there was any bucks about. After watching 3 does suddenly a nice clean 6 pointer came trotting towards me , I was lying down in a field and he came within 20 yards of me and then disappeared through the hedge I was now losing the light and was heading back to the farm when I checked one last field , Bingo , 3 roe out feeding. I was able to quickly cover the ground and get into position seeing as I had very little light left. Good job I have a swaro scope as don't think I could have taken the shot with a budget scope , I could just about make it out through the swaro. I concentrated hard and heard the resounding thwack of the bullet strike , the doe ran around 40 yds and dropped. It was now dark and it took me about 15 minutes of searching to find it in the grass field , I was just about to give up and go home for the dog when I found it , a huge doe. 5 Quote Link to post
