    Just to add like I said I have the exact same rifle, remington 55 grain accutips grouped like a shot gun but the 50 grain were I'd say about an inch group and hornady 40 v max are clover leafs, I had the same feeling when I had drove 20 mile to zero mine with a 25 quid box of remmingtons and came home with a useless rifle but after trying a few brands all became clear

    Only joking mate but on a serious note breathing technique plays a big part, not telling you how to suck eggs and I have only had my cz 527 223 for 12 months but I have got my groups really small now and it was just practice, shooting on the exhale etc and by the way my 223 loves 40 grain vmax, I have just got in from shooting crows on barley stubble great fun shooting off a window rest in my jeep had a few first one was a 60 yard magpie and the last one was a 240 yard carrion crow it just dusted them! Keep your pecker up mate you will sort it atb

    Will be looking for a pup in the future something like a saluki whippet greyhound or even just a whippet greyhound but laguna whippet keeps coming up when I'm looking at pups, whats the big deal about this strain and could anyone say the parents a laguna??

    I have wondered that aswell water in the barrel or at least the mod surely would effect poi as we keep our kit spotless to maintain accuracy

    When my spaniel is trained I will be looking for a lurcher to work along side, this is the cross I was looking at what do you think? Its just for mooching and the odd night lamping, but are they the sort of cross that will last all night if they are fit? Any pros and cons? The fields I will be working are a mix of grass sheep grazing fields on hills, barley stubble / sowing, what are their feet like, I, m great full for any info, cheers

    Bloody good idea that with the alarm clock as money is a bit tight at the moment so a camera is out of the question, I will keep you posted I'm taking my spaniel out for a mooch tommorow and then planning on sitting in the jeep with the rifle for a bit, on a good note had 56 pigeons today on standing barley nice change from foxing as this particular fox is driving me mad, lucky its just a hobby and lucky the chickens are only a quid a piece, its a dairy farm and the farmers wife just keeps a few hens as a bit of a side line nothing serious lol

    How much powder did he say!? Lol bloody hell! Would there be a thread on wind drift and foxes running on with that?

    Well I think it's a fox, farmers wife I get on well with ( very well ) phoned me to say her chickens are disappearing she started with 25 now down to 4 or 5 so she bought another dozen or so as she sells the eggs, but now back down to 4 or 5 again, but there's only a few feathers about the place thats it, ground is dry so can't see any tracks, I haven't seen a thing, been there at 3 in the morning till 6 ish then again in the evening, I have been watching everything with my nightvision but nothing! Really getting peed off now, the foxes here are usually pretty easy, I thought it would be a v

    Thanks again but just to clear it up im ok to take her out hunting? Or shall I get her 100 percent on retrieving fur and feather dummies?
  17. slipper
    Thanks for the replies and I think I'm getting there with training slowly, she will sit, stay stop and I have just started introducing dead pigeons into her retrieves which she is doing ok with, I haven't tried retrieving with dead rabbits or rabbit skin dummies yet, I know I cant rush things and cant put to much on her to soon but I would like to take her hunting what if she catches a rabbit is that ok or is that frowned upon?
  18. slipper
    So I am ok to take her hunting aswell its just I haven't had her in a rabbit pen yet so what do you think I should do just take her out and let her hunt?

    My spaniel is now 11 months old and I was thinking of getting a pistol to slowly introduce sound of shot will this be ok or is she still to young?
  20. slipper
    And me was it from Craven arms?
  21. slipper
    Yep there's one for sale on here
  22. slipper
    Think aya yeoman maybe? Can't remember if they are single trigger though
  23. slipper
    Sounds ok to me, I would like to try this with my spaniel but is there a certain way to go about it like you say there must be rules
  24. slipper
    dont think so maybe flatter but velocity wise the hornet can make 2900 fps with 35grn tips whilst the hmr is obviously slower being a rimmy with 2500 ish, may be wrong its just what my hornady book says atb, got your 223 yet dan?
  25. slipper
    How much difference accuracy wise is there between the two? Is there a lot in it? I am getting very addicted to this reloading malarkey so would I achieve anything swapping my 223 for a 222??
