Underdog 2,337 Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 Have been after a big lad of a fox for two weeks now. He has been raising chickens every night at a local egg unit. The thing is I have not seen him anywhere in the area around the unit as late as gone 1am and first light, no pheasant has betrayed him too. All I had to go off was huge ( for fox) paw prints, so big I sometimes wondered if I was dealing with a marauding dog! After much thought I thought I will check the nearest sheep farm that also has a disused quarry next to it, always a favourite hideout for fox. It about three miles to a crow from the egg unit. Well I am not sure if I got my fox but I certainly got a big one! 60 yards I got down to and thought I am pushing my luck! Shot one flattened him, shot two was for good measure!

He looks to have some mange on it so didn't want to handle him much. I have spotted another fox to have a punt at ! U. Quote Link to post

I only have two rimfires now, no more center fires now. Yes the wmr put this one straight down with the first shot, I double tapped him for good measure. I feared ditching the center fires a few years ago but not any more, I have done equally as well but have versatility and no more loading bench. I could be easily tempted by a .25" large rimfire if they come out with one one day. U. Quote Link to post
