  7. I think a man with a company name like yours Wazz should be careful what he says on a thread like this!
  8. Dropped a nice yearling doe for the freezer, and a rabbit.... for "ballistic testing..." . Tikka T3 Lite Stainless, all standard apart from the trigger which is at 1.5lb. Scopes a 8x56 S&B, beastly optics, probably the best woodland scope you can get I reckon. Mod is a PES Scout, pretty happy with that after changing from a Ase Utra last year, balance is good - far better than the T8 oil drums people like. I shoot two rounds through it, developing a fifth at the moment. The first one is a 140 Nosler Spitzer soft point, mainly for hill work. And the second (what I used last weekend) is a 160 Hornaday soft point, round nosed. It is useless past 150m, but when it hits it makes a very big hole, virtually no hydraulic shock, and puts a lot of blood out of the wound, so an easy carcass to follow up with less meat damage than a .243 100-grainer!

  21. Hi Chaps, College finishes on the 1st of April so I am looking for some work until we go back in November. I am currently studying an ND (3) in Forestry & Arb at Barony College. By April I will have both my CS30/31 and with luck a driving license. I have done 3 weeks work experience with a local Arb firm as well as forestry thinnings with college and other practical work. I worked for Strutt & Parker's Land Agency before I went to college for a year. I am looking for whatever sort of work is available, forestry as well as arb, and am willing to travel as long as the wage covers my expenses. I will work whatever hours I am told to, doing what I'm told to (within the rules/my skills). If you have anything that you think can help you with either email or PM me and I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks for looking Sam [email protected]
  22. I think he meant it as a hypothetical situation. No skin of your back.
  23. £70 is cheap for that complete rig. Some places would want that for the musket alone. I would be shamed if I spent that on anything less than a centrefire!
