danw replied to David Aiken's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Come on lads get your hands in your pockets The mags where used daily for neigh on 8 years at work hold 10 not 9 don't occasionally stick and the thinking men among you realise that 5 ten shot mags mean one full box of ammo loaded so no faffing about with half full boxes of ammo. £10 each or £30 the lot !!!!!

danw replied to David Aiken's topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
It's a clever move getting people to take pics truth is they want to asses the hare population but since most townies and frankly many on here don't know the difference twixt a rabbit and hare best include both and sort the pics out when they arrive -

All I'm saying on this debate is you got to love Dorset 2000 .22lr, 2000 .224, 1000 .257, 300 9mm it must be because it is such a distance to the nearest RFD lol

I stopped going to the gun shop or ag merchants in the land rover simply because every time I came out of the shop another flyer or business card would be under the wiper admittedly not from moleys bit from yet another air gunner who is going to cure all my vermin problems

Although the 25 article is mostly concered with medium animals, it does touch on varmints with the 90 grain PHP round. Thank you Walshie. Why would you use a 90 gr. bullet on varmints out of a 25 when 75gr vmax or 85gr nosler varmint bullets are available but then when varmints are considered upto 60kg !!!!I guess you want a bigger bullet,the article states 25 calibre rifles are hard to find yet that is untrue and every mainstream manufacturer chambers for it ammo availability is good I and many others have easily managed high end velocitys (As measured by chronograph) yet this article

That was my best day, until earlier this week.... 3 Roe, 1 cull Fallow Buck and 2 bloody monster Bucks with matching heads, lol...... Amongst a few varmints too. They stalking lark is piss easy mate lol

And this is exactly my point to say one single rifle is the best is naive to say the least alsones inability to see past ballistic charts is laughable it takes no other factors into account and makes his findings nonsensical real time behind the trigger is where opinion should be based and then when reality hits its damned obvious that no one cartridge is the best it is which one fits within your criteria or more specifically which fits the job/circumstance in hand P,s BH your bias when it comes to the 25 but it sure stopped they beasties didn't it lol
