Hi SuffolkH, Welcome, I also have many permissions scattered around Suffolk and I shoot game and deer around Stowmarket area (and have done for the past 30years+ so might be that we know each other or our paths may have crossed. Anyway, welcome to the forum and I hope you find it informative...

You can get close to that with a .308 from a 1/10 twist to get it spinning. Some of these modern powders are very good. But if you want to really get a shift on then do a 300WM.

I have a wraith 4K and a C50. There really isn't much between them and if you are shooting Fox at night at 150m or less then both are more than capable of doing the job. I cant say anything about the Wraith ultra other than it looks like they had a load of the old wraith cases and to use them...

So here is one of those can of worms threads.... I am going to ask Ronin to rebarrel my custom built .243 and I want it to handle the nice shinny new copper rounds, it will be used for all UK deer species and the odd fox along the way. I already have a couple of .308's, a 6.5x55, a .204 and a...

Not sure what to say about that…..I guess the simple answer is to say he is wrong and should know better.

check out the last picture, it’s an aluminium folding ramp off eBay. TBH, you can unclip the tailgate on the Navara but all that happens then is you spend your time swearing because you just keep smacking your shin on the tow ball. oh yeah, and my advice is get a decent winch with Dyneema...

You think that's bad, I got my medical report back and there is a note to say that I was treated for workplace stress/anxiety in 2009, 2010 and 2013...I wasn't and in fact I wasn't even in the country for 2 of the dates, but the GP is sticking his heels in stating that its on my records so he...

Brilliant :lol:.....You know you have just virtually guaranteed that you are going to pair up with a guy who has a 6 month old spaniel and a walking stick!

Tomorrow

Just had an email to confirm that I am on week 5 (17th -20th October) so hopefully smack on for the rut……I am absolutely delighted and can’t wait to get over there.

I use a 243 with 75gr VMax Norma Factory ammo......Its good out to 300m which is plenty for my night shooting.

The Hinds entry normally opens 1-2 weeks after the Stags entry closes.

Where in Suffolk are you?

.38 Special from a snub nose revolver does a pretty definitive job of HD.
