Decoying Wood Pigeon With The Fwb Sport& Hw 100 Kt

[mark williams 7,565]

You guessed it lads, I took both the FWB Sport 127 (.22) and the HW 100 kt .177.

 

I started about 10 am with the FWB Sport and by 12 pm I`d shot around 14 or 15 pigeon.

 

Then I thought to swap over to the 100 as presentations were warming up and the mag` and reload of the 100 would be "far superior" over the old fashioned reload.

 

My best mate, Kaiser and myself had a great day out shooting.

 

Wood Pigeon retrieved --- 61, lost to fly and fold -- 9

 

Magtrick - 3 bandits shot one after the other. ( HW 100 mag` in action)

 

Pair of crows - 2 crows shot one after the other, ( HW 100 mag` in action)

 

Here`s the hide view.

 

 

Kaiser on a retrieve.

 

 

End of the day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

atb lads, Mark.

Nice going mate and the folk in those houses would be none the wiser

Exactly One !

 

People have taken the huff when I`ve said an air rifle trumps a shot gun on many occasions,- here`s one of them.

Well shot Mark and a perfect situation when the airgun fits in better than the shotgun.

 

I still prefer to take them on the wing but that is just me.

Thank you Phil.

 

Now don`t shout at me - for this !

 

Far more skill, field craft, finesse, good looks, patience, know how, marksmanship,bestest after shave, trigger squeeze, training, practice etc, etc, etc with a sub 12 ft/lbs air rifle than a BOOM! BOOM ! Blow the countryside up - " BOOOOM" ! " Field craft less " blunder buss !

 

On the wing ? " BOOOOOM" !

Sub 12 ft/lbs, in either calibre, used correctly, is far from " utter shite".

 

atb - with a leg pull or two. x

That was my thought when I saw the pictures - the perfect tools for that job

 

..... Cracking result Mark

 

 

Would you even be allowed to take them on the wing with a shotgun there?

 

Good to see Kaiser working again

..... It got me wondering - has he ever retrieved a decoy?

[just-A-snap 1,269]

A good job well done Mark and not forgetting Kaiser

All the very best for you and yours

When I shoot the paper targets I leave a floppy decoy under the boards.

When the target is used up I send him in for the retrieve,- he loves this.

The reason I train this is because out of so many shots decoying you will get a runner and he`s always on full alert if I give him the call,- " Get him lad !"

 

One peep on my whistle stops him dead in his tracks.

 

Two peeps gives instant re call.
