I try to buy it every week just becuase its the only mag/paper on the shelf that covers all country sports. I personally like it, some good articles particularly by penny taylor and jakie drakeford who both talk sense, but i dont think its quite worth 2 quid. However there is some utter shit in there as well but if nothing else it makes ya laugh. Like every one else i would like to see more pre-ban articles in there as well, theres been a few article on coursing recently but foxing seems a big no-no, why?

thanks

at least this bluddy physics degree course is good for somthing Now then..................Special theory of relativity anyone? Hmm you wouldnt perchance be the same brainy person that is putting some very interesting articles into an up and coming shooting glossy are you. very much doubt it, lol. im only 19 and just finished my first year of uni, today infact, so i wouldnt consider myself quite knowledgeable enough to have the honour of doing somthing like that quite yet. maybe in the future though, ill just have to see where my life takes me, career wise.

I cant really be arsed to start with equations and all that shit but im pretty sure its not a simple case of just dividing the volicity for 12 ft.lbs by 3 to get the velocity at 4 ft.lbs. Kinetic Energy = 1/2 x Mass x (Velocity squared), so the energy of the pellet is proportional to the square of the velocity. Therefore to find the velocity at 4 ft.lbs you square the volicity at 12 ft.lbs, divide by 3 and then take the square root, giving you the answer. so for an air rifle in .22 (mass of pellet = 16gr), the average muzzle velocity will be approx 560 ft/s. so velocity at 4 ft.lbs = 560

I had my name down for a couple of jills off of a bloke local to me but hes only got 2 kits and they are spoken for.

Dont mean to worry ya LB, but same thing happened down my river several years ago now, i found about 20 dead fish all together, within i spose 10m. Some how some chemical had got into the river and about 5 miles upstream a blokes dog died becuase of it! I havent a clue what it was or what was done about it but your thread reminded me of it straight away. obviously becuase the blokes dog was a lot further upstream it would have got a far higher concentration of the chemical but still worrying. Im sure your doin the right thing by your dogs, so i hope everything turns out well.

i know of pig farmers that have cereal grain all year round for making pig meal (i think), shed loads of it. you could maybe try and find a pig farmer and ask for a bucket full? shouldn't think a bucket full would go amiss. just a thort, good luck

dont know if this is much help to ya moll? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rook_%28bird%29 its got a section on the diet of rooks, you seem to be doing well by it, maybe add some sorta cereal crop to its diet as well?

He's a trainer mate. sorry but we are not all mind readers[didnt say hes a trainer] but surley the trainer could rehome throughretired greyhound trust???? Im pretty sure the RGT will only take a small number of dogs off of a trainer per year, for fairness, so alot of trainers try to rehome any they can themselves.
-
interesting thread. when im finaly in a possition to get a lurcher, i would want one for the same purpose, always fancied a beddy/whippet x greyhound. what do you rekon? alround rabbitin dog and take fox when neccessary?

Thats the life molly, grow your own veg and hunt your own meat, well some of it at least. whenever i am home from uni and at the weekends i allways help out with the veg patch, allbeit a relatively small one compared to some folks. Its what i used to do with my grandpa when i was alot younger and it was great eatin the home grown stuff, now im older and i shoot and ferret i can nock up a meal of completely organic produce and it tastes soooo much better. good stuff
-
great shooting, were all the shots taken with the bipod on? do you just shoot rabbits? at the moment thats all me and my mate have got permission for, word spreads fast im out this saturday with the rifle after a few rabbits with my mate. keep the vids coming

What are the advantages of an FAC airrifle ?
Born Hunter replied to john b's topic in Airgun Hunting
have a look at the air arms S410 Extra, http://www.air-arms.co.uk/S400S410.htm -
thanks everyone, i just didnt want to go spending mine or my mates money without making sure we would get what we wanted.

Thanks for your reply, I use hemp and spun polyester when i make nets, but i thought that 6z would be alright for a long net as its not generally used in cover. I just really wanted to know if its more acceptable as a long net becuase theres not as much crap to tangle it away from the thick cover?
-
Ive been ferreting with friends for a few years now, getting my first 2 jills this summer and make my own nets My question is i want to know what you more experienced folks rekon to 4z and 6z long nets? Me and my ferreting partener want to invest in a few 100 yard long nets for next season as we think they would be handy, dont really want to pay the full amount so was going to buy 200 yards of sheet netting for each net and make them that way (plus i just like making my gear if possible, but would be absolutely gutted if my hand nitted long net got knackered). Is there anything wrong wit

genuine question from a novice do you think the quarter whippet will have much affect on the pup, ie ability etc other than bringing the size down a touch?
-
50% of the genes from each parent is passed onto the pup, so theoretically its always 50/50. but its not as simple as that, you have to take into account dominant and recesive genes, so if the the farther passes on more dominant genes then the pups will throw to his side of the arangement and vise versa. hope this helps

im sure gypo joe can sort you out, i get my net making stuff off of him, top bloke
