thats a mess, thats the only way to do them, headshots. We lamp foxes all year round here and due to my addiction to headshots I see messy ones but I have to admit that is one of the worst I have seen.

At one time here highland furs were giving us £15-20 for a fur which is roughly $30-40. We used to snare more foxes than shoot and in a week we could have caught up to 8 foxes and as they were snared there was no pelt damage, it was a nice bit of money on the side. Its a pity how things have chan...

I will have to agree with trevort on the 39g blizking a bit hit and miss, I have had mosty good results with it though, but by far the no 1 for little damage is the 32g v-max, I suppose the most important thing is that you avoid the shoulder bone as I dont think it will matter what your using when y...

I use my .204 for foxes and while I dont set out to save fur as the selling of it is illegal now over here. But If I could give you some advice I would say try either the 39g blitzking or even better the 32g v-max. I have shot alot of foxes and with the 39g blitzking I experienced exits but they wer...

I not exactly sure where the breeding for this dog has came about, I own the mother of this pup and my dad owns it mother as well and they have always been bred with fox terriers, this pup looks exactly like her mother. One thing is for sure they make great rabbit/rat catchers, very tame pets but pu...

after a long time not getting out due to work I got some free time tonight and got out an hour before dark I had to comprimise though the women hadnt seen me in ages either so I had to take her and the pup along with me, I didnt realise how early its getting dark now I only went out at 8 pm and by 9...

havent shot an yotes at that range as there isnt any in this country but I have shot foxes at over 300 yards with the 39g blitzking and it drops them dead no problem.

I have used both on foxes and have to say I much prefer the 32g vmax over the 39 or 40 ballistic tips. The 32g almost never exit and turn the inside of the fox into a complete mess, I havent actually had much problems with bad surface wounding, the bullet seems to get in there and do its job well. I...

some very nice country there, were in the middle of summer at the moment. What rifle is that?

its a cooper model 21 I am using and I am using sort of standard redding deluexe dies, so like you said rodbolt this could definatley be my problem, ill have to try some other once fired brass with lube and see how it goes with it. I think I have some factory federal somewhere.

just been doing some more checking today at this, coloured the offending round's in with black marker and tried to chamber, it seems to be on one side just before the shoulder, I checked where it was and it lined up with the E in winchester at the case head so I rotated the round and it chambered wi...

Having a wee problem with once fired brass, I loaded up 25 tonite and went to try them out I noticed the bolt was tight to close down on some of them and on 2 I couldnt get it too even close. This is only once fired brass that I have only started using recently as my other batch was done. I checked ...

hi there skipper, thanks for the reply, I would guess, mine is probably just nudging over 4000 then as my barrel is 26 inch but doubt the cooper barrel would be as quality as your panda's. Do you mean hot load as in loaded hot? dont really want to run her too hot but it was the most accurate load cl...

just got some nice groups with 10x and 35g bergers, (5 shots at 0.450 in a gusty 5-10 mph wind) just wondering does anyone know what an approximate velocity figure would be for 25.5g of 10x behind a 35g berger? forgot my chrony today and wont be back at the range for a while so just want to asess th...

just dont hit my house with that stone! , I know what you mean about the wind, I live clsoe to the mountains and its pretty rough, I was just lucky last nite that it clamed down, what .204 are you shooting adam? Are you shooting factory stuff or reloading?
