Evening all, With lambing now in full swing in most parts of the country, I’m sure most are keen to knock over a Charlie or two… or three, or four! Do any more experienced shooters have any tips they can share? From the down right obvious to the scenting trick passed down to them or even the...

Hi all and hello from Norwich. I’ve been shooting for almost fifty years, mainly vermin, game, clays, pistols when they were legal, and I have done a very limited amount of stalking to help a friend a few years ago. I have been reloading since the pistol days of the 80’s and currently my main...

I have an Infiray TD50L NV scope, the IR torch with it is obviously rubbish. What torches to people recommend? I gather there is a difference with scope needed either LED or laser, I'm not sure of the difference. It is for foxing so needs to stretch out to 300m.

Just a bit of a general one here but what do you do to dispose of carcasses after a nights foxing? I know some people just chuck them in a bush, some leave them for the farmer to dispose of and I know of others that have dug a pit in a secluded corner of the farm. What do you do?

Hi, I'm a lapsed member and just re-registered via a new PW. I'm retired so can shoot a lot - foxing, deer stalking, vermin control, driven boar (occasionally), driven game, clays (various disciplines) and re-load my 22-250 and the next stage will be re-loading my 30-06. I live in SE Essex but...

I've always shot RH rifles but as a lefty I want my next one to be a LH. It'll be a foxing rifle in .223. Varmint. Remington 700 is an option. I've heard mixed reviews on them. I'm used to shooting a Howa 1500 varmint so I'm used to a budget rifle and had no complaints with it. I'm on a bit of a...

Looking to purchase a .223 varmint for my foxing. I do a lot with my .243 Howa Varmint 1500 but want a backup rifle and move my .243 over to deer rifle. I shoot archer attached to Vortex. Thinking another Howa but maybe stainless. Remington 783. CZ or maybe push budget to Tikka T3. All varmint...

Hi all, Seen similar older posts but as scope tech keeps moving on, thought I would ask the question now. Looking along the lines of: Zeiss V4 with 3 or 4 x starting mag with a 56 lens or Swarovski z6 (non ill) 2.5 - 15 with a 56 lens or Schmidt bender 2.5- 10 x 56 (classic type) Now...

Afternoon all, I currently use 55grn V-max in my .22-250 howa 1500 20" varmint to great effect on foxes (it is set up as a NV rifle with a photon extreme) just wondered what everyone else uses and your thoughts on the different heads available? Cheers for your time.

Building a foxing rig for the quad I have a Lightforce RM170 Striker Remote Mounted Lamp and remote handle, and the wiring instructions are vague to say the least. The Lightforce mounting handle instructions seem to suggest that polarity of connections are important, but the lamp has...
