TOUCHY SUBJECT-burglars+shotgun=life sentance?
RobertoS86 replied to GEOFF.223's topic in General Talk
What would everyones preferd load be then to "deter" intruders? -
Mines a silhoutte with nickel barrel and black synth stock. Smart looking tool. And the nickel has a sort of matt coating to it so it doesnt glare in the sun
-
If you do get a CZ, get a trigger kit for it also. Makes a world of difference to the pull

CZ 452 is what I currently have in .22lr. Brilliant little rifle for the money. Was told to give semi auto rugers a miss as your get more feed issues with them over a bolt action?

Needing some advice on which rimmy?
RobertoS86 replied to RobertoS86's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
The HMR shoots flatter and is FRACTIONALLY more accurate than the WMR, but the WMR in 30g V-Max is very flat and accurate and carries approx 70ft lb more out of the barrel than the HMR, so that maybe 3-5mm difference in accuracy at 100 yards is more than made up by calibre size and energy! As for a prehistoric looking round , what do you think the HMR is based on, and talk prehistoric, when did you last look at a .22 Hornet Cartridge, but what have looks got to do with anything? alot actually. the shape and surface finnish of a round is important to its accuracy. .22lr rounds -

RobertoS86 replied to RobertoS86's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Firstly, thanks for the input guys. been an interesting read especially for that price list Paulus I'm talking about 100-150 yrd range atm. Very hard to get anywhere close to them as its very open and they are very skittish, very lamp shy also (as i think) has been poached heavily in the past . Have thort of just getting a Pulsar night sight for the rimmy but come the summer im going to be back at square one so im wanting the extra range and punch. Also come the spring there will be the chance of fox work too -
Hi, so I currently have a CZ 452 .22 but I'm after something with a bit more range. So I've thort about a .17 hmr but also a .22 wmr. But I'm not sure on what to get? It will be used for bunny bashing but I'm also doing a lot of hare at the moment. Whats the lowest calibre center fire and do you think I could get it granted for my current quarry? Cheers, Rob

Had a canny day on Sunday, got some pigeon, some woodcock and a sh*t load of crows. Not on the decoys through the day, but early morning and last light. Brilliant fun

@ratsmasher There is no shoot on the land so I think it would be fine to try a bit, thanks for that Cheers Phil, hopefully I will

RobertoS86 replied to RobertoS86's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Yeah its on my FAC, not my SGC. Thort as much, thanks for clearing that up guys -
I have a semi auto 12g granted on my FAC, but am I only allowed to hold one or can I buy another?
-
