Quick one, is it worth taking bino's on a driven boar trip, or a waste of time ?
Available: montaria in portugal

I personely wouldnt bother mark,a lot of it is close quarter quick action stuff, you will know the pigs have been flushed by the sound of the dogs and with a bit of luck you won't have time to look around and use them.
Bugger, I fancied a pair of 8x32, and don't have an excuse now !
Just as well, had an email to say my new rifle is going to be shipped next week, so I'll have that to pay for.Oh, and PLEASE can you make sure I don't share a room with Bally, I really don't want to end up sharing a cell with him !!!

The new rifle is in the country, and going through the system. "Should" be ready for me to collect Fri/Sat', and now I feel like a kid counting down the days to Christmas morning

good to know its here mark, there might be a queue of people wanting to try it out when in portugal
take plenty of spare ammo, 3 week on thurs until we go woa woa.good to know its here mark, there might be a queue of people wanting to try it out when in portugal
LOL............. Unless I can find something cheaper than Norma Oryx at about £3.00 a round, I might be standing in the queue with them
Need to start reloading for it, but don't think I'll have time before we go. Need to get hold of some Geco to try, especially to get some practice with.
3 weeks, not long now

I don't mind using the Norma for hunting, but I'd rather be practicing with something cheaper. Just waiting to see what I can get the Geco 255g SP's for. Just need to start loading !

of being in bed on my own any moreCollected the rifle yesterday, and I'm a happy bunny Now really looking forward to trying it, and hoping I can hit the broad side of a big boar
I was lucky enough to visit the Chapuis factory, and choose the wood for the stock, and even though you get an idea of how it will come out.
