foxdropper 17,092 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Shot 64 last night between the two of us so that’s 995 so far .Was hoping for the big G but not to be ,a school night got in the way .Heres a tip for you rat shooters .Spread sugar along where you see them most especially travel routes .They can’t carry it so stop to lick it .Works a treat . 4 Quote Link to post

foxdropper 17,092 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Before I shot it there was a fox that I’m sure was switched on to the airgun shots and came running in to pick up rats .It waited until we moved sheds then stuffed it’s mouth full of rats to bury ,cache them I’m sure . 1 Quote Link to post
