Wish Me Luck Lads.

I'm off out with the new .22-250 tonight after charlie(s).

I've bought some tripe meat to put down on their normal run to try and keep them still long enough for a shot. planning on putting bait along their trail and setting up on bipod putting the bait out at 100, 150, 200 and 250 yards. Went out on the targets yesterday and managed consistent 2 inch groups at 300 yards so need to now apply this confidence on a live target. After doubting my abilities recently when charlie arrived i know now after yesterdays zeroing session/practice i can/should easily take charlie out to 300 yards. Yesterdays trip cost me bloody £75 lol

Fingers crossed
Dan

You do realise that every fox in your area will have gone on holiday !

[shropshire dan 467]

On a little break on phone im blooming freezing lol. Seen 1 fox and didn't stop running obviously lamp shy. Gonna have to get a filter for the lazerlight. Most of the land is pre ranged so preety much no my distances their. Next on the list is definitely a decent call. Oh well finish my fag and coffee then back to it.
