Ron Weasley 83 Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 With no work today, thought I'd pop up to the farm in the village and speak to the farmer to make sure my permission to shoot there still stood, since I'd not been for well over a year, and to reaffirm my ferreting permission for the coming season. That done, thought I'd have a little ride around the farm to just refamiliarise myself with what's what. Hundreds of pigeons around, and with a lot of rape being grown, I'll try and have a crack at some decoying soon! Didn't see much in the way of rabbits, just one half grown one ran across the track in front of my truck, and this unlucky one that I spotted in one of the woods. Needless to say, it didn't see me. Found one or two prime sites to have a go at ferreting that I'd not come across before too. Quote Link to post
Guest hyperion Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 top stuff ron! think im goin to have to start saving for an r10, love the look of that gun! cheers hyperion Quote Link to post
Ron Weasley 83 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Thanks mate. I've got to be honest, it was the looks that really sold it to me. I've only had mine a few days but it's incredible so far. I know the earliest models had some issues, but as far as I can make out, BSA have put all these right. And saving?! I'm too lazy for that, it's all on finance!! Quote Link to post
Guest hyperion Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 lol! wish i could get credit mate! how much did the rig set you back? Quote Link to post
Ron Weasley 83 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 All told, with the Hawke Eclipse 3-9x50, silencer and Hills pump it was about £820 The shop threw in a slip and tin of pellets. Unfortunately they were Superdomes- the least consistent pellet I've tried so far! Quote Link to post
Freddy Watts 1 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I am loving the look of that gun more and more by the minute. And if its true that they have sorted out the problems then that is even better. What silencer are you using on that mate? Nice shooting bet the R10 enjoyed it as much as you.
