Was out two nights ago on a permission where i had seen a fox maurading across the adjoining land a week ago. Anyway taking advantage of the upcoming full moon i thought i would sit out a little later after i had finished stalking. Glad i did as something caught my eye coming from the left. A quick climb onto the back of the truck and flick on the illuminated dot. He just had time for a cock of the leg before i hit him hard. Dont normally do write ups but was impressed by the size of this big boy. Still no match for the 87 v max!!

Good one to get Steve, condition looks really good, around here at the moment I think we are getting the worst ones yet, 3 legged and mange, seems to be the order of the day on strange charlies at the moment.

Nice one mate, I was out this Friday night rabbiting with the 17hmr and my partner in crime! shot a rabbit about 70 yards away and as we drove towards it to pick it up the lamp showed up a fox about 250 yards away so got closer and put the FoxPro on, shot him about 60 or 70 yards straight through the eye, nice dog fox,

The photo don't do him justice. His neck was solid. That rifle barrel is 24 " plus the atec utra mod extends another 6" .
Nice size foxes there lads

I think the pic shows his size just fine:thumb:
I wish at times I put something there to compare size with
This was a really good dog fox... Not lengthy but deep and solid with a bit of weight to him

Some cracking foxes there lads.......and all very healthy looking........they don't seem as if they have struggled to find food by the looks of them
 
View attachment 12395This is probably the biggest i can remember shooting, i guesstimate he weighed 20lb plus, as far as more big foxes being shot lately, i recon it's just been a good year, we've not really had any cold weather to speak about and to be honest rabbits etc havn't really stopped breeding, giving them plenty to feed on?
 
One more from me as not to take away the beauty of the fox Steve originally posted about
A good cub from last June
