    Hi, My lad come out with me today while I checked zero on .22RF, he's 10, he loved it with binoculars checking targets. In the future I'm sure he would like to get into it, what's the law and age restrictions with using FAC under supervision on private land ? Tried calling BASC today but couldn't get through.

    I've only had this scope several months, it's like new in perfect condition, all boxed in original packaging with guarantee. It's got the BDC rectile which can be used with Nikon spot on ballistic data programme with I highly recommend (check you tube out). Reason for sale - I've just got a new scope for my .223 so I've placed the original off my .223 onto my anschutz .22RF leaving this scope without a rifle. The lens cover / caps have had a small cut to enable scope to be mounted lower to the barrel. £100, collection from Doncaster. Please call or text if you have a Any q

    We'll after looking through a friends zeiss diavari a few weeks ago I've ended up treating my tikka to a zeiss diavari 2.5-10x50 t*, it's the first and probably the last time I'll be spending big money on a scope, but it's an amazing scope, I'm well chuffed with it, hoping to zero in and get out this weekend ?

    We'll I've recently purchased a Bluetooth speaker to boost sound when calling foxes using the ihunt app on iPhone. The app also has crow, rook, magpie.... Thinking id be ok yo use in field also, I've found out today it's illegal and not possible in the uk. I'm relatively new to decoying, but I'm very suprised I've not been updated about this from experienced friends or on this forum etc. I'm struggling to see logic behind this when standard mouth calls are legal, and it's also legal to call foxes in using them, can anyone give me any further explanations so I fully understand reasons

    Cheers for that mate, I've just posted it off, and have since had email from licensing asking me to send it back also do jobs a good en lol

    My ticket has just been delivered after getting some conditions changed + increased ammo limit, the sound mod on .223 has not been added to firearms possessed Q1 - Do I need to send back to firearms licensing department, or can the RFD I originally purchased it from re-add to new certificate ? Q2 - When you have open ticket do any conditions set out from the FEO get disregarded ? i.e. shooting from elevated position ? I'm confident Q2 is yes, and that it's my judgment on the land I have lawful authority to shoot , but wanted to double check with the experts, and I've emailed Q1 to

    I've had some hassle getting .22 passed on a 10 acre field on one of my permissions, back drop surrounding but the FEO still wasn't happy, ended up getting a crazy condition with elevated position and this was after 6 months of visits / calls / emails, they refused on initial visit and land was passed for FAC air rifle only, but I requested they would re-visit.

    Just got back, and had no complaints from hotel

    But if advice people... Got a bit of crow and pigeon decoying this week on a field locally for one of farmers, I'll be using 12g for the job. Opposite the field is an hotel, so I need to try and be as quiet as possible to save annoying any guests or staff. ( I know you can't be quiet with 12g but any reduction will help lol) Would I be best setting the hide up shooting away from hotel approx 100yards, or the other end of field approx 350 yards shooting in the direction of the hotel. (And when I say in direction of the hotel I don't mean this literally I'll be 350 yards away and

    Well tonight I was dropping guts more or less straight after I shot each rabbit, all fine then I opened one up, not cut into the gut sack but the inside of the fur was coated in a creamy white liquid, first time I've seen it. All liver and everything were perfect and rabbit looked and healthy, any idea's ??

    Cheers for that mate... Im anal with having everything clean, even do my Rimmy once a week lol. I'll stick to my routine just didn't know if the copper solvent would do any damage or there was anything special I needed to do, read somewhere you can damage the o rings with excessive cleaning, don't know how true this is. Thanks again ?
