Guest Sprags Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Had a night out last night with Vim, we had two foxes fall victim to the .243, the first was a poor, medium range shot by myself and it did manage to elude us for a short time until Vim used his excellent tracking skills to locate it and immediately dispatch it, showing true professionalism in the field! The second was a short shot and dropped on the spot...................... I must say, I like the .243 I have always shot off a bi-pod and was not too comfortable shooting off the sticks but I think I will practice a bit with them though as they do give you a more elevated view!! An excellent night in my opinion and hopefully lead to me gaining some acceptance Thanks Vim for having me over!! Regards,Sprags!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kip270 Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Good Shooting Sprags, the .243 is doing it's job. Shooting off the MANS STICKS takes time But your OK we won't look down on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charly hunter Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Keep it up pard, you will soon get used to using them I never go out without them. Well done Vim on taking the time to find and despatch the fox, I know some people would not bother wasting there time, all they want to do is go on to the next spot.

Three hours into the lamping i was was having visions of sending spraggie home with jam doughnut all not even a shot but my woodsman skill`s came to the fore front a delivered the goods I went back to that field this afternoon sprag where the fox was shot just to make sure it was dead anyway i seen one magpie pottering about so i exploded him with a 129g SST. A minute later i shot his mate both these shots were taken from the gate way to the feild at the same angle when we seen the two foxes..
