hw100sniper 2 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Went out for a second morning in a row this time after charlieas we'd seen not even an eye in the last 3 night outings.Up at 5am so we could get up to a bit of wood where the farmer had seen a fox regularly before first light in the hope of getting there before it after fighting our way through the fog wondering if we were wasting our time we got there at about 7 with the fog just rising we sat in and waitedafter about 30minutes there he was coming down the other side of the valley with not a care in the world.Id picked a spot that I judged was about 160-170yds away that was a clearing in the heather I wanted it here just incase i clipped the heather and it deflected the bullet .After what seemed like ages he finally got to where I wanted him and the rifle done the rest.(Thank god we seen this 1 as the fog came down again so it was game over).We took this round to show the farmer who was delighted ,but still troubled else where with frozen pipes etc but I cant help with that. How I found him. Gory view. Quote Link to post
