Paddy_SP Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Well done - that's some going! I shot two large dog foxes on a chicken farm last night - the owner is of the opinion that they are 'drop-outs' - that is, releases by one of the so-called animal 'charities'. I've hammered the vulpine population there, so for two males - who would normally fight each other, to suddenly be in the same place at the same time is highly suspicious.

They must have all been flukes though in any case, as I keep getting told reliable shots past 200 yards and at that range can't be done! Lol Good shooting buddy, we must use the same tutor lol Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Steve In most cases that simply means that the complainer can't hit a fox at that range. If he thinks it's hard, tell him to try the same thing off standing sticks with NV!
