  1. These scales are the old counter balance ones from old and are very accurate and have served me well for the past 10yrs or so, they are strong and durable and in good condition, i have weights from 4lb down to 1/4oz and ideal for the falconer as i have developed them into scales for hawks or falcons and would even take eagles. I want £40 for them and collect from warrington as they would be a bit heavy for post, probably double.
  2. When you applied for a FAC you had to state which calibre rifles you needed and for what purpose you need them for, every application has exactly the same questions. So, you would have put .22 RF rifle and for whatever reason you needed it. You can buy a .22rf rifle and use it for the reasons it was granted. Both are written on your FAC. John yeh thanks i put down .22 rimfire for the control of fox vermim and ground game, so was wondering if i asked do you think they would review my licence so mabe i could get a 223 as i want to shoot fox
  3. I have been granted my FAC licence and think i made a mistake by just putting rimfire on the application form so if i just have rimfire on my ticket what guns exactly can i buy or should i say what gun will i be limited to, and if only standard rimfire if there is such a thing what ground game will that cover

  6. Hi Mantha, There is obviously a big difference between the size of a fox and the size of a rabbit, so in general your going to need two separate calibres to control the two different species. Then you need to ask yourself what you want to do with the rabbits, obviously the foxes will not be for the table. There is a growing and IMHO sickening culture of "the more mashed the better" & "the more gruesome my kills the better I am". Not so long ago people took pride in shooting rabbits for the table, a well placed shot and a good source of free range meat. These days if you can blow the b

  19. Could any tell me what the daystate air ranger is like fired at fac and what is the best power, i have heard different things about it being better around 28ft-pound or is it still as accurate at 40ft-pound. The other thing is, is there in the peoples opinion a better gun on the market other than the airwolf, just need a few ideas before i buy my new gun, I have £1200 to spend its took me a long time to save it and dont want to make a mistake, i did set my heart on an air ranger or an airwolf but heard a few different things like there having alot of guns sent back with problems.
