bigmac 97kt 13,780 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Gave Sean a bell friday night saying im going for an early morning shoot if you want to come got one back saying you will not be up lol any way i was he was not hit the farm at 4am. and shot till 8am photon was spot on checked zero at 33yrds with the range finder 3 shots bang on the money then put another n3 in just for the hell of it lol Parked the tank away from the farm house just incase i woke them up and went for a walk about got the first one after a bit of a chase at 33yrds and lights out first in the bag . Next was at 38yrds spotted it with the pard spotter went prone set the shot up was just about to squeeze the trigger and it took off followed it with the scope and it stopped dead in its tracks took the shot and it just rolled over but there had been another behind it and it took off and did not stop until it was safe lol. that was two it was starting to get light by this time went back to the tank and had a bite to eat and set off again came across another two lined the shot up and i could not see it in the scope i could see it if i took my eye off the scope but soon as i used the scope it just vanished and me being me let it go for another day , this went on two or three times before i called it time and went home them photos are shit in day light could of had a few if it was not for that now need a day time rifle with a normal scope and the raider for nv shooting hmmmmmmmmmmm another hw100k or another fx crown may be another springer hw97k Ether way its another rifle as i dont want to start chopping and changing scopes every time i go out . atvbjimmy 8 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,550 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Nice shooting Jimmy My choice would be a 97K in .177 for daytime buddy, this 97k I bought off Simon, ( pianoman) is outstanding in the hunting field. Never shoot just a pcp mate, as you know, shoot both and the spring rifles will always keep your shooting to a high standard,- never, ever the other way round. Again, nice shooting Jimmy . 1 1 Quote Link to post

Thing is with me Mark i can leave a spring rifle for a year or two then pick one up and be as good with it as if id been shooting it every day for two years even more so if its a hw97k or pro sport even a t rex after a few shots it all comes back to me . still cant hit out mind but it all comes back to me lol atvbjimmy 1 3 Quote Link to post
