  1. hi there, i recently got a puma 22r. i already had a harris swivel bipod, the bipod attaches to my other rifle (cz 452 17hmr )fine using the qd stud but trying to fit to the same stud on the puma it doesn't tighten up on the fore end. the puma is a lot slimmer than the cz. has anyone else had the same problem and can suggest a remedy. possibly a harris adapter is needed? thanks in advance guys - ryan, cornwall
  2. i got myself a large ex arm rucksack. think its arount 70/80ltrs. wasn't cheep, round £50 but its perfect. fits nets, plenty of decoys, flask cartridges... its also waterproof and has external zips to attach extra pockets. another great feature is that it has an internal padded metal frame to keep the back of it flat and comfortable on youf back when carrying.
  3. never mind the facebook message, i found ya

  4. Hi guys, This might seem a silly question but I'm not much of a game keeper. What do you feed pheasants? Is it wheat, barley...? The shoot I'm a member of has lost alot of birds this year & I have a feeling it might be down to the feed being used. Also the birds that are there are very small with no fat & empty crops. Any suggestions? Cheers guys
  5. Hi there I want to know what paint to use on some old decoys? I've got some old mallard decoys, one drake & one hen, both feeding (ass in the air style!) Colours aren't an issue but I was wondering what is the best type of paint to use considering the abuse they will get? Any advice would be a great help Cheers guys
  6. I have a pair of le chamaeu verzanoid wellies & they are brilliant I can't fault them. Warm feet is always a good thing!
  7. I got 1 a few years ago for rabbit shooting where shotguns are too noisy & I can fault it. Ok it's no BSA or daystate but it's a fraction of the cost. I got mine for £115 (I think) & scope with mounts was another £50 - £60. Although you could get 1 cheaper. I put rws pellets through it & it is consistant. I would say if you can afford it though that I wish I wud of got a better second hand gun instead, or forking the extra cash for a pcp. I had a go on a BSA super10 & what a toy that is!
  8. Going out later to get this years batch of sloe berries, every year I make the mixture slightly different & I've never been dissapointed. What are your favourite recipies, methods? Do you find freezing the sloes first gives you a better end product? Cheers
  9. Really enjoyable day, my first ever go with a competition clay set up which was fun. The mrs liked it to, which is always a bonus
  10. Yeah I did but I use my phone to go online so can't get em up, I'll see if I can sort it out
  11. Went decoying earlier, on freshly cut stubbles. Had 12 half shell decoys. Was there no more than 2 & a half hours & had 18 woodies & 12 crows. It's the first proper outing I've been on & I'm surprised how well it turned out! Looking forward to going again!
  12. Just been fishing for macrel & they was 1 all day? I'm sure this time of year u can't miss em! We g did have plenty of gar fish so not a total waste of time. We were in Newquay. Has [NO TEXT TALK] else had a lack of fish?
  13. I used to work with alot of sound systems & I have tried some of the electronic in ear protection for that Market, which I can say is very effective. They work in exactly the same way & I think are alot cheaper! I can't remember the name of them but I know for a fact they sell them on www.htfr.co.uk (I think that's the right address if not just google htfr I hope this helps
  14. I don't know Helston that well, I know where helston gunsmith. Is but that's about it lol. I'm from penryn so I'll drive over & check it out as a Thursday night would be perfect with my job. Cheers parkstone
  15. Country show I found out about that's gonna be held at stithians showground / Cornwall. They say it's gonna include clay shooting, dogs, ferrets, fishing.... Sounds good here's a link for ya http://www.cornwallyfc.co.uk/countryfair.htm just thought you guys would like to know, might be a laugh
  16. When my dog had ticks I covered the ticks in vasolene to starve them of air then after 30-60 seconds they simply let go when you put the tweezers on them. Hope this helps
  17. I know what you mean I don't normally like gloves but sometimes you need them. I have a pair of neoprene barbours at the mo but they are not the best. I do like the look of the macwets but I wanted something that is warm & waterproof. The other gloves I am looking at are the musto game shooters. Nice gloves although the macwets do look so much better
  18. Does anybody know if the macwet winter shooting gloves are waterproof, ( & warm in cold weather!) they look nice and slim for comfortable shooting and all reviews say how good the grip is when wet but nothing on if they are waterproof.
  19. Cheers for that the details would be ideal. U from Cornwall? What sort of shooting do u do?
  20. hi guys i was wondering if anyone knows of any clay grounds or clubs in cornwall. truro / falmouth area would be ideal but can travel within reason. cheers in advance
  21. cant wait to use the new gun tomorrow

  22. thanks for the advice guys a great help. i know that the bottles are good but they are a big lump to carry around so i am now drawn towards the pump idea as someone i was talking to today said that he just keeps it topped up rather than let it run out of air and its no problem at all. has anyone got any suggestions of a fairly good gun possibly second hand, my absolute limit would be £400 but might go a little further. or is it better to just buy new??? once again thanks for the fast replies guys ryan
  23. hi to all. firstly sorry if this is in the wrong area as im new to the site. i have a question about pcp air rifles. i have been reading about them and they look the ideal air rifle to use for hunting pigeons with the low noise and recoil but my question is how do you fill them with air? i am aware that you can get diving tanks but i was wondering how the hand pumps work & f they do at all. can you use the pumps to pump air direct into the guns own air chamber or are they for the diving tanks? if the pumps connect straight to the gun i would prefer that as i know that diving tanks are
