Rabid 1,936 Posted January 1, 2021 Report Share Posted January 1, 2021 Well done, your getting onto them now I was out on some new ground after a deer or two and saw 7 foxes in less than 2 hours, I wasn’t after them but one ambled across the field in front of me brazen as you like, 81 yards it stopped to look at me, that was a mistake. Am thinking I would like to get the numbers down on this ground, so may put in some effort over the next week or two. 5 Quote Link to post

I picked up a .204 few days back ben, been looking for a cheap to reload for vermin basher... had a .223 but never really took to it so it went! zeroed it at 150yrd other day with pard on, was that bright I had to put a bit of a shade up to see target got it in right field within a few shots patched target then made a final tweak after the high shot.. thought that'll do for me! 5 Quote Link to post

And is that the 008? its a tikka super varmint sd, its a 20" witch ticked the shooting out of the window box.. I know the gun as I was in the shop when it was getting put together, it only had 32 shots through it before I got it put the pard 008 on it, I can swap it about easily.. wanted a vermin basher cos I never use nv on the .6.5 as I like using a real scope on that rifle! 4 Quote Link to post
