The draw was pretty hard, it was ok but trying to keep it drawn back and aiming would ache after a while, so I thought smaller taper might be better??
-
Na not yet mate I need to find what thickness suits me before buying a roll. I was using I think 23 - 18 0.76 or 0.72 green gzk with 9.5mm last time but didn’t get on with it lol
-
Thanks mate, I’m getting them off ebay 4 bands for £10.50 ?
-
Would 0.8 gzk green 20 - 15 be alright? Or should I go for something else?? thanks

Google barf diet i feed my dog this and never had any problems. She’s been on raw for most of her life now and it’s kept her nice and lean. it can get a bit tedious making a diet of 80% meat 10% bone 10% organ meat (5% liver and 5% other organ meat) so might be worth buying it complete from a raw dog food supplier. Start with really small amounts of liver because your dogs will probably get explosive shits ?
-
How do you get that close to them lol the pheasants around here are so skatty. You get within 40 yards and they run or fly off ?
-
Thanks mate, I can offer something of that size, probably bigger and a smallish run with multiple lifts and time outside in the garden. I plan on working them when I can, I can get permission on a bit of land already and if I do get the ferrets I plan on getting permission for other places. The last ferret we had had a bit of a whiff to it and it was cleaned out everyday with the run being cleaned every few days, so these would be staying outside as well lol. I dont plan on breeding but want to get a pair so they can be company for each other. I never knew they did better in pairs, o

I use .72 gzk green bands 23mm-18mm taper with 9.5mm steel ball bearings with my uniphoxx mate ?
-
Hi mate I’m thinking about getting a pair of ferrets in the near future, but before I commit there’s a few things I’d like to know lol. I work 10 hour days, would the ferrets be ok in a hutch all day while I’m at work, then let them out to have a run about in the garden when I finish? I could also let them out before work. What size hutch would I need to house the pair of them comfortably all day? When I was a kid my dad kept a ferret that had a hutch attached to a big run. The size of this run about 1m x 3m. Is this size really needed if you’re gonna let them out every day?
-
Reading this thread makes me want to get a few ferrets again lol
-
Sorry I meant the width of the bands. My catapult takes 19mm bands and I’ve got 23mm tapered to 20mm bands. I can’t put my hands on the catapult now but I will try to get a picture for tomorrow.
-
When shooting ott, do you have the excess of the bands inside the fork or on the outside? ive got mine on the inside but wondering if I should use a bit of elastic to wrap around it to keep it all neat?
-
I took the first grant at the beginning cos I wasn’t working, but I’m back to work now so don’t think I should claim lol I think the way it works is you gotta pay back 20% tax and national insurance of your grant. If anyone knows more on this that would be great cos I do my own taxes lol

I don’t know what the old ones are like, but I’m sure I read that the ones wasp are selling now are a newer version because the old ones they were selling, people were getting problems? the ones I have have got a plastic coating on them. On my instruction manual it says not to over tighten them, might be the cause of your broken hands?
-
I have the wasp uniphox, it’s a nice little catapult, fits in my jacket pocket with a handful of ammo. my only dislike is that the handle seems too small for my hand and can be a bit of a sod to hold properly. I am new to catapults tho so I could be gripping it wrong lol
