Akeld Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Good going, rarely see rabbits up here now. Thats an interesting idea for the lamps plugged into the cab, secure and can be isolated, I really like threads with lots of pictures, its a lot easier to pinch others ideas , the shooting frame in back looks well made and thought out as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhunter Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Good going Gaz, we have nothing like the number of rabbits you lot have although they seem to of made a slight come back with the better weather this year. Fox wise my 129th of the year met it's maker on Tuesday night... and still plenty ground to cover in the next few months before lambing. Keep up the good work mate.

Jamie Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Christ that is good going! All looks very professional..... Is it a second job? Your RTV is the dogs! I could do with a set-up like that, my backs fallen to bits..... The rabbits are very low in numbers on my permission, no idea why? Never seen/shot any with Mixy, and I'm the only one who shoots there. Legally anyway.... atb Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 What do you mean by "out" Scotch? I don't get to shoot too much myself, due to medical reason, but as my wife states, I do a lot of "fannying around" with reloading in the house I have told her reloading is a hobby in itself, but it falls on deaf ears....

gaz6br Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Cheers chaps, it's me and two mates in our little shooting gang we all have our own bits but just do it all together about 6 free range pig farms, 5 free range chicken farms, 3 shooting estates and lots of other farms it adds up to a lot but we try get out at least twice a week lamping then a sit out or two at wkends We met up last night at the farm where we keep all the gear about 8pm and loaded up and went to a local estate about 2000 acres of pheasant and lambing ground. It was a cold, still and quite light night no good for rabbiting really but my mate put his 22 in anyway we managed 17 there's not that many about on that patch really, my 223 ackley stopped another fox we saw another but it was sat back in a wood and couldn't get a clear shot. Back home at 2am early for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
