Hey Mate,
Are you looking at buying something???? I may have just the thing for ya that I no longer use and might part with.
Maybe what ya got there keenfella? Pop a photo up.
Give me 5 mins. I will go and find it and throw up a pic or two.
Removable shooting frame. Attached by hose clips onto the front carrier (5 min job to get on or off)
Holds 2 firearms pointing forwards in a safe direction but easy to access.
Comfy to lean over to take steady shots.
If you want it you can have it for $100 and I can probably get it delivered to Timaru or possibly Waimate for you to pick up from a sports store???

Nice set-up .... Would love see the look on my Father inlaws face :wtfsmilie: if I took off his fishing kit and put this on his Quad :thumbsup:

He is my take on a shooting frame. Held on with 4 bolts. Box comes off with frame but can be attached separate

If shooting by yourself what are you using to keep the light in the critters while shooting
Find them with the spotlight which is a Lightforce 170 scope mount and then blast them by either clicking the spotlight onto the scope mount attachment or just using the headlights of the bike.
You could always get one of these:
RAMŽ ATV/UTV Spotlight : Cabela's
I was originally going to do this but haven't been doing as much night shooting recently so have held off.
I'm heading down that way this weekend....I sure I could fit in the zooki with a little lubing ;)
Why are you always so keen on the lubing Cambo?????
I might have to put a padlock on my tent zip on our next hunting trip if you keep talking like this.
I use a couple of little LED torches mounted on the scope. Good for shooting at least 200m and can see about 300-350m. Torch lasts about 4 hours on a battery.Quote:

Cool thanks. Look forward to your thoughts on them . Their website tells you bugger all ...
The reviews with that link are not too flash on the quality of the light. The mounts are good though. I have just received a heap of headlights for checking cows during calving. Gave my brother in law one for use on the farm and now everyone is getting one.
That begs the following questions. How many heads do you have .... and .... how many cows do you have?Quote:

The headlamp is great on the quad, good for 75-100m and when he gets to an animal that needs attention he can adjust to a flood setting and lower the power. Leaves his hands free and they are so comfortable he keeps forgetting it is on his head. With 4 hours on a battery charge they are great on that score too. Much better than the Lensar that he has retired after not very long.Quote:

Wide = faster target acquisition because you don't have to turn the bike full on to the target. Think padded also. Hard give you a lot of vibration transferred through to the firearm. Soft give you a lot of cushioning..
Thanks Headcase i brought Keen fellas one and was already thinking about putting a wide bar on top. I will improve it as i go.
I have one of their mounts for the GPS in the vehicles and they are very very good.Quote:
