Does anyone here on here like a spot of hunting ?

I used to do a lot of shooting, ferreting, etc

I was thinking bout geting back into the shooting as i really used to enjoy it

[Tanya]

I usually go hunting on boxing day every year, fox hunting though so pretty irrelevant to your post

just a litle, as i dont agree with fox hunting

[Tanya]

Tough ive posted it now

[xr2i_babe]

i used to go fox hunting all the time, dont have time anymore though!

[Kittie]

I would like to shoot rabbits. I hate rabbits alive but I like eating them when they are dead. Don't have much in the way of aiming skills though, or a gun, or know where any rabbits live.

[XR2i-Fiesta-]

I did a spot whilst with the girlfriends parents in Oz! They own land out in Tingha so did some Roo shooting at dusk with some dirty big guns! in the month i was there i think i did about 10 Roos dead and had to kill one with a piece of exhaust pipe off a bobcat after I hit it in the face with a shotgun at a wierd angle. So yeah i like hunting! lol, also I have 2 Borders and a couple of Ferrets myself for the odd spot of rabbitting!

[Scott69]

shot a few birds with a bb gun before lol

[Excursion]

I shoot anything that moves

[Ruishy1]

I shoot anything that moves

Im a bit like that, im a bit blood thirsty
rabbits, hares, squirrels, deer. you name it ive shot it

whats your fave weapon ? ive not shot a full bore rifle, tried a shotty and wasnt keen, my weapon of choice was my old air rifle, webley axsor carbine, matt black, walnut stock, black hole silencer and 4-12x56 simmons scope. running a very healthy 25lb/ft ( for all you in the know thats over twice the legal limit )

sadly due to lending the rifle to someone, its no longer alive

I've had past experience with guns, not with hunting though.
I'd love to try hunting sometime.

[Ruishy1]

Its not as barbaric as some people think, sure it can be if you wish it to be, but i never took a shot unless i was sure of a clean kill

I have pulled off some great shots, i missed a rabbit that was 15m away, swore loudly and it ran, quickly snicked the next round in the mag, and bam, a running headshot a 55 metres

Sadly not done it in a while, looking to buy another gun though and take it up again, but women and cars are draining all my resources

[Charm]

Get rid of the women then?

[jayrs]

i dont agree with fox hunting, thats just barbarick and im glad its banned.

anyway, i dont hunt as such, but do shoot, i like shooting rats tbh, i shoot for fun, but if i ever want a rabbit or something ill go shoot one, plenty about over here

Ruishy1, that webley aint a bad gun, i take it you had .22 yeah?
i currently have a mk1 stealth .22 kitted out, er, legal limit of corse

[Ruishy1]

No thanks, if you knew me, being single does not appeal ( dont ask anyone on here what im like )

The stealth, thats the one with the bottle as the stock ? and it dismantles IIRC very nice and with a good FPS spread for an unregulated rifle

Yeah mines was a .22, considered a .25 but the extra grains were not needed for rabbits, would have been handy for deer though

Really want another axsor, but webley being defunct makes that very difficult

[jayrs]

it sure is mate.
i bought it second hand, as its a mk1 stealth and in the uk they are limited to 12ftlbs, but being a stealth there are ways of upping the power if you so wish, i bought a part from a guy that has his shadow (basicly stealth with longer barrel) upto 60 ftlbs and i could easily get the stealth to that as i know how the power is regulated on them, but of corse i wouldnt do such a thing as it would be against the law like

[Ruishy1]

I like it mate
I wouldnt want to run that high a power on an air rifle, you would get about 5 shots and run out of air
I may nip over one time to meet you and go shooting if your up for it

[jayrs]

yeah i dont mind mate, would have to find a good place to shoot though.

i i remember right, the guy thats got his up to 60ftlbs gets between 125 and 150 full power shots from a charge.
i can get about 400-450 full power shots from min
and yes, ive spent a who tin of pellets in a single session of shooting, not hunting, but basicly blasting the crap out of braches, plaster board, tins, glasses, old rattle cans etc

i think i got aroud 120 shots per charge, but my tank is miniscule in comparison to yours
Is there a ferry ver to yours ? if there is and im working down south shortly il take nip over in the 300
Its easy enough getting somewhere to shoot, if there are farmers near you il get you permission to shoot, i can be very persuasive, ask the missus

[jayrs]

be aware the ferry will cost you prob £60 for a day return and im not joking!

as for farmers land, its not as easy to get permission as you think mate, they tend to charge too, if that is they let you on, they all have regular shooters that use there land you see.

[285Andy]

im not so much of a hunter me, but id like to shoot all the squirrels at work in the face

ive hunted for clay pidgeons once! thouroughly bloody good fun what!

[Ruishy1]

60 quids not bad for a return mate, gives me the option of driving over i hate flying, done it so much these past few years im usually asleep before takeoff

Ive never had a problem convincing farmers to let me hunt on their ground, the most its ever cost me is a bottle of whiskey, and we used to take 120-180 rabbits outta that place every weekend for a month or 2, then things started to go a little quiet

im not so much of a hunter me, but id like to shoot all the squirrels at work in the face

I used to love shooting squirrels, i hate those bloody grey american scum

i do have a nice little scar on my hand where i shot one, it feel out of the tree with a thud, i went to pick it up and the fucker was alive
it bit into the back of my finger and wouldnt let go, so i punched it in the head and that killed it

[jayrs]

lol.

mate, it aint worth flying to the isle of wight, ferry only takes 40-45 mins, fast cat 15 mins

[Ruishy1]

lol.

no bother mate, expect to hear from me in a few months time, you should hear me coming

[jayrs]

i would need some warning, so i can get the bottle charged, and get some pellets for the pistol as i always take a air pistol when i shoot, plus being at work and on call every 3 weeks....

[Ruishy1]

dont worry mate i wont just be tuning up in the middle of the night and expecting anything

It wont be for a few months as i wanna buy another rifle, but some time between april and june should be on

[jayrs]

what rifel you looking to buy mate? i wouldnt mind another my self.
did think about the logun S16, but have heard some bad reports about them but i may test one out yet

[Ruishy1]

dont get a logun, he takes a standard rifle like the rapid 7, then dismantles it, adds his own custom stock, inferior trigger mech and APR.
not the way to go.
I was looking at the FX2000, its basically the axsor, but a bit more refined with an inbuilt pressure gauge.

might just get one on credit

[jayrs]

the S16 is a take down rifle like the stelth mate not the half job as you said about, but, they are problamatic so ive been told.
only reason i was thinking of it was due to the 16 shot mag.

in all fairness, i would love a skan but there very expensive

[Ruishy1]

are you set on a takedown rifle ?
as for the 16 shot mag its just a gimmik, mine had an 8 shot, and took me a while to use all 8 shots

[jayrs]

no not at all mate.
tbh i really like the B&M apache, im sure thats what it was called, which was a er,i think air arms gun with a B&M stock making it into a bullpup type stock, was very nice, but again expensive, but i dont think they do them anymore.

but the skan is a very nice gun mate, just i havent really looked into buying another for a long time as i dont really get much chance on using the one i got

[Ruishy1]

typical mate, as soon as you discover booze, cars and women, everything else takes a back seat
