redemption for the 2 foxes i missed with dave1372


Recommended Posts


Well done MM ,did you get them with the nightvision on or using the lamp?

Hi Billy got them both with the lamp...

Its Dave that uses the NV, i cant justify the price tag on Gen.2 NV, in my opinion they are ok if you are out on your own, not much fun if you go out with a mate, he sees feck all, Hence when i go out with dave, i prefer not to have him bring his Nv set up, (hope you are reading this Dave)

 

These 2 were shot when out with my regular shooting buddy, i only go out with dave if he is stuck for company...LOL...

Nice guy though :whistling: just needs to to throw that NV away (my away)

 

cheers Jimmy (Daves Mentor)

With that being my first night with the night vision I really enjoyed it even although I did miss the 2 foxes.Although it will be back to the trusty lamp on friday (not getting out this tuesday as mate has work comitments)What do you shoot with then Jimmy.

Nice setups you have Jimmy ,how does the 243 perform?I really like my 2 CZ rimmies but have heard that when you step up to centre fire they are not as accurate as some other brands.Just asking as my variation is in for a 243 and have swayed towards the tikka t3 lite .

 

 

Dave I deliberatly missed them 2 charlies as with you being a great host I wasnt wanting to shoot all your stuff on my first visit .

 

 

 

 

 

I wish :icon_redface:

Hopefully you will nail them the next time you get out Dave just turn up about 2ish and see if there into a routine and they might be about the same place and with them not being lamped you have a great chance with your NV or even the lamp .Or you can leave them for our next meet up and ill get them with my 17 if I pick up the correct bolt this time lol :whistling:

Well they have both been in the same field both times I have been down but it will be a bit tricky now as I think they have heard all the calls that jimmy and I use and we lamped them on the first night, so I reckon my best bet maybe to try and bait them and then lie and wait an hour or so and trust they turn up sooner rather than later !

 

Still looking forward to seeing the .17 in action !
