I got a set of these at a very good price and sold my leica rangemaster 1200 as I wanted to cut down on carrying both a binos and a lrf.The old square rangemaster would range out to 800m for me very reliably and fairly well to 1000m ,I even ranged in the 1100m range on dull evenings.With the...
Iv had the parker and hale bipod, too noisy and flipped open all the time,never liked it,Iv had a harris on mine and had no arguments with it and have harris on my other rifles, Iv got a atlas on it now and I think its there to stay.
myself and the father were up and out waiting for first light.Nothing came out of the woods to the field we were lying in wait so we crossed over to another permission I have.On walking into the field we spotted a doe who eventually spotted us and ran off, luckily she didnt spook two prickets...
looking forward to seeing pics and a write up of the hunt.loved the pics in your 'its alive' thread. would love to live in a place that has such big wilderness areas
Cheers for that , good post.I plan on doing this in oct when one of my friends is home from abroad .Il def post up pics of the process.Im thinking il probably do a trial run before I get everybody round
Ill give a big plus one to the tab biathlon, carries my 19lb 308 no probs .As for slinging in the loop whiskey 2-1 pictures show it better than words.A well made sling perfect for a heavy rifle .
here it is on my 40xb after a hard day on the hill and the results
I wont be able bast this as once its in the pit its covered over in 18 inchs of soil and stays under til its done.I like the idea of the bacon strips(40xs) and I think il do as you say mikeebooshay and soak it for 24 hours too.
I buy the issue british army wetsuit,You can get them second hand online for about 70 euro.?We even wear them at work asour issue wet gear is heavier noisier,hotter and isnt even waterproof in prolonged/heavy rain.the brit stuff is cheap,gortex and lasts
Ya my plan was to rub it well in a marinade then wrap it in tinfoil then use chicken wire fencing wrapped around that to stop tinfoil from coming off then wrap that in damp hessian cloth and place that into the pit ontop of the hot coals and then backfill the soil.Just not sure how many hours I...
Anyone here ever do a pit oven to cook a deer or hog,Im thinking of trying it for the laugh with a full deer and have some friends over.Iv cooked small pieces of meat like a chicken in a pit oven on sere training but never a large animal.be nice see some pics/advice
Lol..no advice here sorry, but have to say that fanny this side of the pond means pussy.I always get a laugh when ye guys talk about fanny packs !!We call them a bum pouchs and to be honest I dont use them ,I have pockets sewn into the back of my smock and shirt depending on what im wearing.Dont...
Im using a set of leica geovids 10*42 for hunting as it cuts down on the need to carry both a lrf and binos.The binos and glass are excellent but the lrf is beginning to disappoint me .They are perfect out to 600m but after that they are hit and miss as to whether you get a reading back .The...
DBM! its the only way to rock,you can take off the mag and not spill a load of loose rounds on the ground with your cold clumsy fingers,been there and done that ...at night.. with hinged floorplates.Put one mag on the rifle and another in your pocket,No loose rounds rattling about.I run 5 round...
I use a gs2 for 1 day hunts and lr shooting in the hills.I can put a remy 40xb 308 in an AICs with PM2 in it no probs.Hit up ceylonc here as a hide dealer for a good deal on one
Honestly? you would put a god awful ugly piece of velcro on the action rather than have brass make a tiny rub mark?Does the thought that every time you fire the rifle the inside of the barrell gets damaged keep you up all night worrying also?
