Hi all , iv needed some for a while now but not sure which ones to get ? What do you guys wear or recommend ? as thell be used for dog walking varminting on farms / some very hilly , foxing , maybe some decoying from hide etc . I do like berghaus fleeces / gortex jackets etc there stuffs quality ! budget upto maybe 200 ? Cheers

I know what you mean , it varys , they are i think the most difficult quarry to snyp ! obviously it helps when they haven't seen you . It sometimes pays to move position but they could be watching from distance . So wont ever come back . But they do get deeply curious and sometimes do ! Iv often shot 2-3 maggies in succsession which makes me over the moon

Hi there , do you mean squirrels ? Iv used peanut butter that worked good but really need to bait at least a few days . What you shooting them with ?

lol nice , i do love air rifles for sniping them . Theres a certain tree they love 48 yards away , and my first milldot ( with .177 AAs410 ) is set as point of aim at that distance iv had two recently both one shot kills , its a credit to pcps accuracy and effectiveness . keep it up lads off soon with hmr to deal with some more

visited 3 shoots today , it was quite windy and iv broken my kestrel ! limited my shots to 300 but still struggeled today, missed carion at 270 yards - not enough windage . But have managed to start my magpie cull with a lone 231 yarder ! - had 1 rabbit 1oo yarder , BUT my biggest annoyance was a grey squirrel just over 100 , i dialled 8 clicks - 2moa to account for my 200 yard zero ( 2" high at 100y ) and i dialled the wrong way ! IDIOT - i seen the large hole appear 4" above its head lol, how stupid ! At least it was a stunning day ! ATB-Tim

cheers lads keep em coming , hopefully be out this weekend ! weather permitting . Ill have to cheak zero on hmr first - then on the hunt !

Its that time of year when im out after these little challenging feathered pests , this year im gunna start asap ! I noticed a few days ago a maggi allready building a nest ! Christ they dont hang about ! And after chatting with si-snipe recently ( he is an amazing marksman ! ) and seeing some of his awsome footage again on Utube iv really got the bug . weather is getting better and dryer ! Atm ill start with my hmr then hopefully not too far away im having a .20 practical built ( using 223Ai now ) for mostly daytime vermin . So anyone else share your magpie encounters, i will cheers tim.
