    Lets play the guessing game:thumbup1: Tikka or Sako? Might be a Brno? T8, might be a T4...? Ziess, or maybe S&B 8x56? Harris Bi-pod. Sam (Rifle Saddo )

    Hi Dean, Looks like a Birmingham gun to me. If you can get anymore detailed pictures (especially action and barrels.) Then If I cant work it out I'll send them to a friend, works for Holts, who will know. Sam

    Hi mate, Rifle is a Steyr Prohunter in .243 Scopes a S&B 8x56, and a T8 mod (big black one) changing to an Ase Utra Stainless one in the later photos. The carcass is a roe I neck shot @ about 130m a year back. Bullet was a 95gr. Nosler "hunting" Ballistic Tip. At the time I used that rifle for my small deer stalking, I have now changed to a 6.5x55 for better stopping power, but the .243 still does the business on rabbits-foxes out to 300m Sam

    Not your bi-ceps lads. I've seen there is a fair few shooter on here so thought we might benefit from a picture thread. Also anything game wise you fancy, I'm not fussed. Ill kick off the runnings. And what it does...

    Did you know that GLEE spelt backwards is S**T. I would rather eat my own face than watch that. Sam.

    To be honest you will be lucky to get shooting for free, most farmers have woken up to the extra money they can make via shooting rights. Make sure you have public liability Insurance form BASC or similar, and demonstrate complete respect to their property crops/stocks and you might just find somewhere. Good luck mate, and remember to practice lots and keep it small, nowt bigger than a rabbit with a pellet gun Sam

    Odd one this. Has anyone lined a three door series 1? Im thinking of buying one with the back seats, then plying up the floor. Making the back footwells into storage cupboards accessible from the top, obviously taking out the seats. But possibly leaving in the fold down boot seats. thats the basics, a couple of extras would be added, a shelf behind the seats for a rifle, lots of storage space etc. for overlanding. Problems being; 1. I don't have a vehicle to look and plan round. 2. I haven't seen this sort of thing done before. 3. Don't know if it can be done. If you've done it/seen it/heard of it. I would much appreciate any info, especially photos, that you might have. Cheers Sam

    Anyone got a 357 or similar for sale? Looking for a friend, ideally as cheap as possible and preferably in the north west. Cheers Sam

    For me, dogs are great for cross-cutting. But for felling/snedding/brashing they come right off, just think that they get in the way. Never put them on my 346, but I have the in the toolbox just in case. Sam

    My Meindls are the mutts nutts! Wouldn't have another boot Sam

    Thanks lads, I think Ill skirt them for the time being:thumbup1: I think the new plan will a new pair of the cheapest type (orange backed bad boys) and use the two pairs, rotating half way through the day. They all are When not at college I use these; Cold Star Latex Hi-Visibility Gloves - B-Click 2000 Ace Safetywear I have about 4 pairs and just change them when wet. So much better grip too. Wish the H&S would come out with a straight answer yay or nay Sam
