You’ll not get better than a drone with one of Kev’s mounts without spending a lot more money,an Kev can fix most issues,if you get any.

I made one myself using one of these https://www.screwfix.com/p/double-cup-suction-lifter/6299p, I now have a discovery with sun roof, I removed sunroof glass (4 screws) and made a replica of the glass out of ally plate an drilled a hole in that for the handle ,can be put back to normal in 5 minutes but I’ll not do that until I sell it ?

Tikka t3x or howa 1500 in 308
nick703 replied to Marctitty's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
I’ve got a t3x supper varmint 223 and a howa 243, the tikka is a lovely gun and very accurate but the howa is just as accurate if not more and was less than half the price -
Would love to no where you get these soft bolting Russell’s from,because mine are f***ing full on especially the dogs ,I’ve an 8-9 year old bitch with hardly any teeth but I dig her more the she bolts , maybe mine have some black in the line so there a bit better than other whites ?

Well done, I’ve swapped the lens in my pard from 16 down to 12 after you saying how good the 12mm is ,as far as I’m concerned the 16mm was crap but now with the 12mm lens in its like a new n/v and 100% better for foxing ??

One of mine had a tooth to the eye,healed fine with antibiotic drops,also my spaniel had a large thorn in is eye had to be knocked out to remove it but healed fine

I’ve got a tikka 223 and a howa 243, I’m that impressed with the tikka the howa will be going as soon as I can convince the mrs we need another tikka ?

I used to have a cz semi , was ok with win subs if kept clean, mate has a 10 22 from rimfire magic,never has a problem with it ,ever, but there best part of a grand now but I think worth it to no you’ll not have any issues cycling subs ,think you can get all the bits from them to upgrade your own rifle

I have a good amount of land in the Lincolnshire wolds, loads of foxes there -
Not with my foxing setup, weights a ton ?

I’ve got these an a fox at 100y takes any more than one step an the sticks need moving,I find there’s very little movement in them but you soon get the hang of them , I use them if I have to get out the truck for a shot behind or any I can’t get on from window rest

Says there good for 400y. https://www.scottcountry.co.uk/lighting/scope-mounted-gun-lights/wicked-lights-a67ic-predator-high-power-gun-light-/

Trigger sticks are good but I wanted the clamp system so I can lock the rifle in an scan with the thermal, you can get a clamp to fit primos but up and down has to be done with the trigger or get a ball head, but still a good bit of kit an like you say ,a lot cheaper

There rock solid with none or very little flex, to get a camera tripod as rigid you need to spend similar money,the Ebay camera 100quid ones have to much flex, leave the legs locked out so very quick an easy to deploy just adjust one leg if on very uneven ground, there’s someone on eBay selling the saddles for 55 ish but you’ll need to get a very expensive tripod to stop the legs from flexing.

I was thinking of getting one of them wicked hog saddle things from s/c about 400 notes, seem to do everything a bipod dose and more,anyone use one ? ?
-
I’d just apply for it an list everything you’ve done but at the end put there may be others but can’t remember the details an they don’t always no everything as during my interview I mentioned a past conviction that was not on my records because it was in a different county, the look on her face when I told her I had an old poaching conviction, (or two) ?

My last of the year,8 o’clock last night,200y
-
Think it depends on type of conviction, I had a bit of trouble a few years back,resulting in me losing my tickets, got them back after 3 years, best behaviour for me from now on ?

I’m wanting to say cci , think,or something similar name ? I’m there tomorrow night foxing so I’ll double check , I used to have an old cz semi auto that was 99% with win subs ,just the odd one would jam but that was more to do with the magazine
