mark williams 7,561 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Took the old girl out again to a small copse I`ve been watching closely. I`ve noticed the pigeons are dropping into this tiny copse around 11-30 am after their first feed. We were waiting in a makeshift natural hide I`ve had in place a good fortnight now just by the waters edge. Here`s the copse. Full gillie suit as well in the hide. Kaiser retrieving to hand, - he missed nothing. Here`s the end result, a nice winters bag of Wood Pigeons with the FWB Sport and good field craft. atb Mark 12 Quote Link to post

Not a word Mitch, 25 p each - but when you shoot a decent number it pays for the pellets ! 26 minutes ago, mattwhite said: Excellent stuff Mark? I hope that any newbies to the sport read these posts as it goes to show what you can achieve with practice with a good springer?? Thanks Matt, kind words. I find the spring rifles far more enjoyable than the pcp`s if I`m honest,( you have to shoot correctly) but if a pest control job has to be done, then pcp it is . I really fancy getting a BSF Bavaria .177, or a HW 35 Export .177 2 Quote Link to post
