Anyway - well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz6br Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Nice we don't call much this time of year with big stubble fields we spot a fox in the lamp, then drive straight towards it in complete darkness stop when we think we are in range, rifle at the ready bring the lamp down nice and steady (not to slow) just enough time to get the dot settled for the shot then time the light is fully on your pulling the trigger Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
