Nice one Mark, fly tying guys will have the jay if you know any. Phil

Well done that man. How are you doing with the Impact, silly question really when your photo is clearly saying, you are doing very well with it. Phil
-
Well done mate nice photos too. Love the grip on your Rapid stock Red. Phil
-
Too photo, good result, nice one. Phil

Not so far away is the South Yorkshire Shooting Range in Rotherham indoor, 33mt. https://southyorkshireshootingclub.co.uk/ Or you can have a look here to find another in your area. http://www.shootingclubdirectory.com/ Hope that helps. Phil

AA, wow they are very expensive in that case. Quite a few guys use Enloop cells which are very good and much cheaper. Phil
-
Are they 18650 cells Phil
-
That is one long rifle. Phil

NO, another puddy cat is coming in a week so there will be 5 cats with whiskers an two with pellets coming out of them..............................I must be mad, can't wait, the house has been far to quiet although we might not be saying this when little faces appear out from the top of our Christmas trees.

Cheers John The guy works at Houghton Le Spring, so I am meeting him on his lunchtime.....................................lunch, whats that, now I'm retired I never get the chance for lunch. Phil
-
I wouldn't mind his contact details please. Phil
-
Love it. Wait until summer and what fun you have hunting flies Phil

As you know, we lost our last and oldest cat a few weeks ago, well the house is going to be very active this weekend as we are picking up a mother and three kittens and one other I am picking up from Durham next week in .177 Cats rule ok Phil
-
Sorry mate, I didn't read it properly. Phil

If your dad is touching Rez, then weight and ease of cocking may have to play a part in this situation. Also ease of actually loading the pellet and .22 might be better for him to hold / load. My shooting friend of many years is 81 in a couple of weeks although you would place him in his early 70's so we are not aging the same, I am a perfect example, if you saw me, well you might place me in my late 30's............................or not. The point I am making is buy a rifle which not only suits you but one he can actually use easily. Phil

There used to be a guy who I saw a few times at my local range who had one and loved it but he did say that he fancied an HW100 but was told that he will lose too much on his so perhaps they are not so popular. Phil
-
Sounds like a cracking good deal. What barrel length is it. Phil
-
Go for it and try some AA Field Heavy pellets 18gr, so accurate in mine....................................Rapid every time but I am still new to both the Rapid and FAC but very pleased so far. Phil
-
Cheers Rez. It was wet and muddy down there last night but, thanfully the rain held off for us. I've kinda got my spots sussed now - there's one 5ft high shed with a clean flat roof - that's THE only place I put my rifle down on this permission You know John, some folk laugh at the Trigger Stick tripod that Mark and I use but in sh1tty conditions they are unbeatable. I was talking to an old pal in Sheffield who does some ratting and he bought one on my suggestion and thinks it is nothing short of a game changer when it comes to ratting, standing or sitting. Perhaps worth a look.

There is a very pretty 510 supersport like Si's in my RFD Jimmy s/h..................................very very nice and it's got your name on it matey. Phil

Nice one Mark. Went out myself today, first time in weeks and quite interesting because the nettles had died right back revealing a rabbit warren I had not been aware of before because this is my first winter on the perm. Also found a couple of places for permanent hides so on the lookout for a few pallets now but if all else fails, I will be setting up some netting and leave it all year. Unfortunately no hedgerow or thick bushey cover. Photo's next time I go. Phil
-
It might be rank Si but the sport of kings mate, good on yer. Phil
-
See Rez my age and eyes weren't playing tricks.............................for a moment though, I thought they were. Phil
-
Subtle change there Rez.
