    Handy tip!

    Just throw a couple in your sleeve with your rifle, they attract the moisture. Dont open them just pop them in as is

    Handy tip!

    These little bags that you find in electrical goods, kids toys etc.

    Handy tip!

    Good points there, I had never thought of it drying the stock out, I have had two small bags in my sleeve (one at each end) for two years now and have just been and checked the stock out and not a crack in sight .. phew, the stock on mine is hardwood and I would presume they would dry the wood out well before the manufacturing process. Thanks for the input, its always good when people add things you never thought of yourself
  4. Pfffft thats not a scope THIS is a scope
  5. Cheers Chris but did you have to name ME Interesting results so far though
  6. I think it is just a case of if its not a problem then leave it, keep an eye out and if the population explodes then its time to pick them off a bit as they will wonder further afield and cause problems elsewhere, as it is from what you have said it may be doing part of your job for you anyway. All the best
  7. Nice to have the back up, and he is right lots of stuff on here to fill your boots, welcome and enjoy

    Handy tip!

    I was just thinking (i do this occasionaly), a lot of you will be saying "I keep my rifle well oiled, that drives off the moisture", but unless you are pyhsicaly dipping the thing in oil (not a good tip), you will still get moisture where you can't see or get to, just thirty years of experiance thats all, and an after thought!

  13. I agree nice looking permission, good few kills too. Been peeing down here too all day 1" in 10 mins earlier. Looks like a HW95 too nice rifle. Keep us posted how your getting on there Jack
  14. I dont know if this has ever been mentioned before, but any way here goes :- You know the little white bags of silica gel (do not eat throw away) you get in some electrical goods, kids toys etc, well, I all ways keep a couple in my rifle sleeve, reason being they attract moisture like s**t and keep things dry. You know the story your out in the field and even if its not raining cold steel attracts moisture, you get home and clean etc, but you will never remove all the moisture. So to keep your rifle in tip top and avoid moisture just place a couple of these little silica gell bags in
  15. I'm from Bradford originaly so I know what ya mean, nothing worth while spending owt on up here though, would have to get my mate to pick anything up for me and then post it, only one gunsmith on this island an he knows he has the monopoly here This one is more james bond but not for me Click here!
  16. Bugger that means its just over 17 ft/lbs which means you have to add it too an FAC I guess that rules it out then Yes I have to put them down now and again mate, cheers for the info too
  17. I have a couple of quid burning a hole in my pocket and was wondering has any one got one of these or had the oppertunity to have a go with one? Click here! I also note on this link the power is measured in joule, how does this convert to Ft/Lbs. I would only be using this for the odd plink now and again, do you think it might be a waste of my couple of quid?
  18. Top bloke who knows his stuff. All ways friendly good advice.

  21. Took a few plays to see this, but I did, I was looking at the one running away and took my focus off the one in front keel over. Good shot
  22. Top reply I may just keep this for a good argument I may have one day
  23. Well thanks guys, I never even thought about making traps before, with the plans and pictures submited, I think I will have a go. I'm not too bad at butchering wood so why not, will save me the bother of staking the scoundrels out for hours. Thanks all again for this thread has opened my eyes a bit
  24. Bleeding tourists sight seeing, slow down to snails pace !! Takes 15 mins to get to town (18 miles) with tourists this time of year can take half an hour.
  25. I still say that to my kids when they ask, or if i'm bored and they ask I just say "food"
