I’ve managed to lose the rubber eye cup from my HIKMICRO Lynx LC06 thermal monocular. Several minutes’ Googling has failed to reveal where spares and replacement parts may be bought. Does anyone have an email address for a supplier? maximus otter

My understanding is that flat base bullets tend to be more accurate, as it’s easier to produce a consistently flat surface than a consistently angled surface. Boat tail bullets will retain velocity and energy better than flat base bullets, but how far do you intend to shoot them? It’s surely better to hit a 300-yard fox with 450 foot-pounds of energy than miss him with 500. maximus otter

I’m sure that it was my DSC.1 certificate that got me my first stalking permission. Imagine that you’re a farmer or landowner, and some bloke whom you’ve never seen before walks up and asks to shoot a powerful rifle on your property. You’d want something on paper to reassure you that he had some idea of what he was doing, and that’s where DSC.1 comes in. Recommended. maximus otter

lt doesn’t go over both shoulders, but l use and recommend the Z-Aim Pro rifle sling: lt secures the rifle on the shoulder until needed, when the click of a Fastex buckle releases it. Good kit. maximus otter

No. Air pistols are neither powerful nor accurate enough to hunt rats. Nor, l would imagine, could you shoot accurately enough. You’d maim or cripple twenty for every one you killed, and that’s not what we’re about. maximus “Former high level pistol competitor” otter

I’ve used a .177” CO2 pistol loaded with flat-head wadcutter pellets. At “powder burn” range, its power level is academic. Distract Ratty by pushing a twig or piece of paper through the bars for him to attack; then, when he’s chewing on that, give him the good news in the top of the head. Job done. (Hint: Place the trap & live rat inside a large plastic bag - l use one of those charity collection bags that come through the letter box about ten times per day - as Ratty will flop and spurt for a good while. Saves cleanup time.) maximus otter
