  1. Looks in bad nick that, corroded, could be from leaving the mod on it after shooting perhaps? As above take it back and get it sorted or ask for your money back, let us know how you get on mate
  2. 300 quid for a semi auto brand new with warranty can't be bad! I, ve been thinking of getting a semi auto for a while and they have a very attractive price tag
  3. I would but I smoke 40 a day and my diet consists of pukka pies and stella artois so after 5 yards I'm buggered lol
  4. Anyone tried these in 223? And are they any good?
  5. everything I put in my dogs kennel she pulls out, evenings are getting cooler now and even though she has a insulated with kingspan kennel I would like her to sleep on something or am I being to soft? What do you use as bedding?
  6. When foxing from a truck do you turn the engine off whilst calling,? Its just a fox could appear from behind so if the engine was running you could swing it around to get on target as opposed to starting the car up again which would make more of a noise? Is this what you do?
  7. Just a thought, if they segment won't that mean three little bits of lead that could ricochet?
  8. Yes exactly, tried best fox call the tenterfield etc and sometimes the squeak on the hand is all you need
  9. It will happen mate, I'm having the same, it's just a quiet year for foxes in my area, they were everywhere last harvest, this time hardly anything, I have only seen 4 this month and shot 3 of them, I have been doing more rabbit shooting though to be fair, but last year on the stubbles I was shooting 2 or 3 every time I went out, you can only Shoot them once I suppose, the foxes your seeing are they the ones you have shot at and missed with the hmr lol? Thought there would be more of this years cubs about though, what are the rabbit numbers like on your permissions?
  10. Ok glad I asked now, forget the ridge line then, lol
  11. Anybody got one of these jackets? Which is the best? It's the game fair next week and I'm looking for a new jacket
  12. Never used them before I suppose it reduces ricocheting are they accurate and how much are they mate
  13. I know very little mate I'm in the same boat except my ess is twelve months old now and I think I made the mistake of doing to much to soon, with advice from kind chaps off here I have now got her walking to heel, stopping on the whistle, turning on the whistle, my main mistake was doing to much retrieving to young, and now I have had to start all over again with that but I don't mind, it's a learning curve for me and the dog, but every time I take her out I see an improvement, what I have been advised ( a bit late in my case lol) is let it be a pup and form a strong bond, all the best and
  14. Yeah I know was only joking just pick your nights to go out with it but the best rabbiting nights are windy ones!
  15. Don't say that dan, deker will put up that picture again of those three fox cubs he called in to 20 yards, lol only joking
  16. I could do with my cz 452 shortening its 22 inch I think, its a bit awkward shooting from the 4x4, was quoted 90 quid by brock and norris, its deadly accurate just hope it stays like that
  17. Yes good numbers think it was the length of grass that helped they were sitting tight
  18. Cheers dan, and I've just remembered we saw a normal coloured rabbit with a completely white head, and I missed that one! Never seen one like that before, I've seen black ones and ginger but not white headed
  19. Cheers mate, we started at 8 last night and finished about 4 this morning, just dropped them off at the butchers I was a bit worried he wouldn't take that many but he was chuffed, drove around 3 farms the best was a chicken farm as we were shooting 4 or 5 at a time, not lamp shy at all, didnt see a single fox all night though which is weird
  20. Ill try later if I can work it out lol after I have washed the car rabbit fluff and empty cases everywhere ha
