I’ve had a few disappointing transactions recently, “once fired brass”, that was only fit for the bin and a pm11 that had a split eyepiece and dented elevation turret, it had obviously been dropped, I had to send it back to Schmidt and get it fixed at my own expense, so it was fit to sell on, as he had assured me on 4 occasions that it was CCW elevation and it was CW, all my other scopes are CCW.  After complaining, he blocked my messages. You have more recourse on eBay.  
I will contact the seller of the powder again and see what he is prepared to do.  
We should be helping each other out, not doing each other over. 

What brass are you talking about Paul eh?

I would be very interested in your input on the N150 instead of the N140 I'm using if you have time to share?

Be interested in the N140 load under 130g's. 

Had some 'funnies' with N140 under the 130g Bergers 😯

Hi, I was out for a couple of hours yesterday working up a load for my 6.5x47, 26" tube. 

I had a tub of N140 left after selling my 6mm BR and I bought a few 130 grn TMk's to try and see if I could get them to work, I will stick with a powder charge now and have a play about with the seating depth. I was on a good group and I blew up on the 5th shot and pulled it LOL.

I have another potential Half day on the rooks and crows tomorrow . Had a walk across the fields yesterday evening an the crows and rooks have been digging the beans up , have made a right mess of one long field ( about 750 m wide and just over 1K deep ) 

so I have decided to take a rifle with a bit more legs , also it’s a bit of a windy corridor , with swirling  wind so should be fun .

Nice, very similar to the one I use 👍 

My 22/250 Tikka 595 does well with 75-grain amax, 26" tube 1:8 twist running at just under 3400 fps. Foxes hate it lol

My tikka 595 has a 26" 1:8 tube and I use 75grn Amax with Swiss RS 60 and running at 3360 fps and hellish accurate 😉

Hi Bob, aye the thermion works fine, been used to spotting with the XP for a while now and used it with the drone, so using 2 thermals is fine.

There was nothing wrong with the 15X Bob but I found it a bit fussy when focusing when you didn't have much time to take the shot, a few times I lost sight of a fox and had to go back to the spotter to pick it up again. XM 50 better on top of the rifle weight wise also for hoofing about on foot 👍

You are spot on Bob who needs to shoot foxes in the dark at 400 ydrs plus, a lot of these keyboard warriors kid themselves on.I have been shooting more years than I care to remember, shooting one at 100 yrds with an old headlight and humping a motor bike battery was an achievement, ah the bad old days  

Haha been there done that, even stripped an old rucksack to the bare frame so I could carry a motor battery on it so I could stay out longer 👍🦊 I have moved on a bit now. Spot with an XP 50 and there is an XM 50 Thermion on top of the 22/250 now as I punted my 15 Drone.

That's great news Bob with the drone back up and running again👍

Hi Bob, that's crap news the drone has packed in on you! What's the next step for you with it can you get it fixed?. My mate had a 15x done and it was only about 9 months old and he got the dreaded blue screen also, he sent it away for warranty work.

I have only just set up the new scope Bob and not used it in anger yet so time will tell when I get out and about with it, I will let you know how I get on with the new XM50 Thermion scope 😎🦊 beware LOL

Hi foxinmad 

try hobby king fat shark battery box for two 18650 batteries and add a cheapo 6 volt regulator and use wires that come with the drone usually get six weeks worth of shooting ie 18 hours use . Just need a bit of soldering and it has a battery charge indicator built in , much cheaper than armasight version at 300£ 

Sorry, Richiew just saw the post just now, cheers for taking the time to post this up. My drone has been sold on now I've moved on to thermal

Regards

Martin.

Cheers Bob, I think I will do the same buy in bulk. I have tried a few different rechargeable batteries in my 15x drone and they don't last long.

I put an extended rail on my 595 Tikka, perfect eye relief for the drone.

All the best👍 

Great result Bob👍 tidy set up you have there. What batteries are you using to feed the drone?

Regards

Martin. 

Had a couple of foxes spooked with my ir also Bob, it's an armasight one on top of the drone. I just bought a Solaris SRX but not had the chance to get out and test it yet. Going to try to get out Saturday night for a few hours and try the Solaris, will let you know how I get on with it.

Bob, mibi foxes getting dropped off at the ground you are picking up on? Ahh well, you better get out and onto those other 5 that were seen today, lucky bugger! lol

Well done on the shooting Bob you are knocking them over just now 👍, I was out on a small farm I shoot on and seen two on Saturday night got one of them, the other one would not stop for me. I wonder if they get spooked with the glow on the ir sometimes!
