  2. Lightweight smock/jacket recommendations

    Anyone got any recommendations for a lightweight jacket or smock for warmer weather stalking. I’ve seen plenty online but a bit of first hand experience would be nice. Thanks.
  3. .308 or .270

    Lots of positive feedback, thanks. I’m still not sure what to go for though. Ha. I’m leaning slightly towards the .270 just for the fact that I don’t know anyone with one and like to be different but will have a look locally to see what’s about in the next few weeks and make a decision. But...
  4. .308 or .270

    Thanks for the quick replies. It’ll be used in uk only. And boar would be in Scotland. I’m not saying I’ll be doing much boar (unless I shoot one and get the buzz) but there is boar where I’ve booked on for stalking. Might not even see one. I don’t shoot out at great distances either on roe...
  5. .308 or .270

    I’m going to make my .243 my foxing rifle with nightvision so looking to add a stalking rifle to my cabinet. It will be mainly for roe but hoping to get a couple of days out on red deer. Aswell as the chance of boar on a trip I already have booked. (Not necessarily targeting boar but been told...

  10. Cocker for tracking

    Thanks mate. All makes sense. She 2 now and steady. I’ll try with a skin drag and reward on a local farm back home the next time I shout one. Then go from there. See how she responds. Then progress to maybe taking her and leaving in the van. Then let her find any **** deer once I know they are...

  15. Cocker for tracking

    I’m sure mine would be the same. I only need to pick a gun slip up or my hunting clothes and she thinks we’re going shooting. She loves it. She’ll sit and watch as I breast pigeons weather it’s 2 or 100. Just for a few little bits for her reward. So a nice warm slice of heart should seal the...
