Well, the big day I officially become 'old' and 'past it' arrives in a few weeks! (Sorry to offend my elders before I have started this pointless thread!)
My old dear asked me what I wanted, so.... It got me thinking, money no object (well in reason!) what would I want!
I started sensibly and opted for a new pair of bins, the Swaro rangefinder ones at about £3k looked ideal, replace the cheap ones I have now!
A new scope for the top of my Howa too - again, a Swaro 2.5-10x56 illuminated all-singing-all-dancing-but-still-only-rifle-scope at again around £2.5k should do!
After reading Paddy's book a form of NV would be nice, so I plumed for an NFA75 or whatever they are to go on the new scope!
And I need some wheels too, a shooting truck is long over due. I could not find a Range Rover Overfinch Holland and Holland - so I had to settle on the new Range Rover Overfinch Vogue - no price but I expect one could barter them down below the cost of a small 3 bedroom house up north, or a hundred K!
See what the birthday equivalent of santa brings, but I will settle for a bottle of port or a new decent axe, something I can hand down to the kids!
