Thanks zippy i havent bought my rifle yet matey, but thinking of getting into it again, i used to have a Weihrauch HW80 with a 4-12x56 scope in the early-mid 90's but ill health put paid to that...thinking of getting a Weihrauch HW100 but i see it uses a gas bottle of some sort so i wouldn't have a clue where to get the bottles filled or how much it costs to fill....but thank you for that info ive put that phone number into my phone take care zippy mate appretiate it
I am also air'd up, and interested in getting back into it, I used to do a little competition shooting with an RWS Sig C225, still have my basic ol' Webley Excel Carbine (with crazy soviet Pilad scope, as used on the soviet Dragunov SVD sniper rifle!).
Might well give one of those clubs a call - good info Zippy
Failing that you can always fall back on NERF guns and use them indoors on unsuspecting victims!!
I used to shoot with a .303, then an FN, then an SLR and then an SA80. Happy days. No, I am too young to have shot witha bow and arrow. just in case anyone is wondering.
Summer01 i dont mind killing vermin as they cause a lot of disease, rabbits ruin farm crops as do wood pigions rooks etc (ive only killed rats up to now), Sometimes killing is a must.....how else would people eat if nothing was killed....im looking forward to shooting off a few pellets at a gun club just stating my opinion summer01 take care

brady, why should summer keep it to herself summer has the right to voice her opinions,
thats ok kimpri means well i just don t like things being killed in cold blood let the fox kill the rabbit and the cat kill the bird but to shoot sorry can t accept that .
Careful Summer,don't rile someone with a blood lust!
I've never been one to go along with the excuse for killing because they are vermin, I'd rather people be honest and say they like the hunt and the kill. In my days of having a firearms permit and being a member of a gun club, at least the members there were honest enough to say they liked the kill and not hide behind, the need to be culled. Myself i got enough pleasure improving my ability to shoot by firing at targets, stationary or moving, never thought it very manly firing at animals, vermin or otherwise, might of thought otherwise if they could shoot back.

nay worries, zip that is me (obv) and Shadow-Omega, from here- not my boyfriend-at last years Wirral History and Heritage Fair. We'd got chatting to a pair of War Enactment Enthusiasts. Theres a thread on here somewhere.
I doubt you are so you probably don't know anything about the vermin on farms that do destroy and contaminate crops already cut or not. You only have to search on YouTube for "Rat farm shoot" to see just how bad some places are.
Yes it has, crops cost money! Vermin will chew through containers and sacks spilling the crop on the floor. this = time + money + crop wasted & contaminated. There is no cover up!
You can't tell a Rat "oi stay off the crops" the only thing you can do is exterminate them. It's a nessesery evil.
Poison? A slow painful death? Electric? A painful death that lasts 20seconds Trap? A nice metal bar slamming into the rat bursting it's inside's and causing another painful slow death.
Them sonar things are a load of crap! My neighbour bought one and had it up for 3 days before taking it back. I could bloody hear it at night and it was doing my head in. If humans can't here it why do some have PIR sensors turning it on and off ? Surely you can just leave it on...?... No cos they are crap and humans CAN hear it.
Don't get me wrong I'm not for all types of hunting.

The correct frequencies are way outside the human range, but a faulty circuit design or a bit of cr@p in the transducer and you will get sub-harmonics which are audible.
The PIR concept is generally for battery models, the PIR can be very low current, the transducer though takes power.
