received the follow up dvd to beyond belief , this is over ten hour's of showing thing's like safety ,setting up a factory 243, load's, balistic tables, and much much more ,and a one mile shot at balloons for fun one shooter shoot's it with the first shot , a good dvd for those intrested in long range shooting

i think airguns should carry some sort of licence but this will be a very hard road to go down as the amount of airgun's out there must be vast ,plus again it's punishing law abiding citizens especialy the younger shooter's ,again like most when a got my licences i will not put a foot wrong , i know one certain firearms holder who now no longer come's shooting with us because of his act's in my opinion should not have one ,and should be reported for what he shoot's but i am no grass its people like this that spoils thing's for genuine shooter's, and from what i have seen in the past from some

yes you are right but she was quartering away, and she droped on the spot i knew the bullet was going to hit the vitals so it was going to be a humane shot i had to take the shot otherwise she was into cover and i may not have got another go at her and i was there to do a job

these were shot first thing this morning arived at about four thirty got settled in after five mins the first victim was shot ,half an hour later job done ,one happy farmer even happier chickens,now i know some will condem this act but when a farmer requests it to be done then it has to be done otherwise someone else will be called to do it ,i dont like to kill cubs this young but i do fox control and shooting these this morning has secured me and my father some good ground for fox,hare.crow & pigeon

lightforce 170 riflemounted as they are light and produce a good beam ,when there is two of us it's the same lamp only hand held , as for calls i have found the wigeon call works quite well but my mate recently bought a digital electronic call and that has done realy well especialy over the north east, and south west scotland ,around where i live alot of the fox's are educated to the call so they take some getting

yes you are right varminter it does not matter how far away your target is but it's nice to know you can make contact at long ranges , i have missed fox's etc at less than 100 yds walk in the park shot's but still missed but then shoot them past 200 ? havnt realy tried my rifle past 300 may just have to try now, as for what i shoot it's mostly fox's with the remi, deer in scotland not so many rabbit's now my areas have almost been cleaned out with what i dont know the ocasional crow just for fun have a winchester 243 for deer this side of the border , varmartin if you are intrested in th

Your post was deleted by one of the moderating team as it was about something not only illegal but pretty daft too. Stabs, thanks for your reply, as I have never hunted over there, I do not Know your laws and while looking at an air rifle site, I saw were they sold .50 cal. air rifles and that they shoot 200 grain bullets, was only wondering if anyone was using them for deer because a 200 grain bullet would not be used for small game or would it, feel me in on this because I have not hunted with an air rifle for 40 years and then it was for small birds only, that was the firearm/air rifle

i also have a t-8 on my remi 223 and the sound supression is great , & have no problem as you do ' this maybe because i have a 6* 56 mill scope with 30 mill tube so i have high mount's and a comb raiser and eye allingment is comfortable plus there is bullet loop's on it for quick reload's

i think the the best thing to do if you can is spend some time observing them ,where the flight line is ,where & what they are feeding on i know you will be itching to get among them but it will pay off
