About LinkBacksHi everyone,
Thank you for having me on your great forum.
My name is Les, I’m a retired 70 year old and have been shooting all of my life, rough shooting, wild-fowling and air gunning. I live in Essex England, I am a member The Airgun Forum.
I am ex Military, I spend my spare time either looking after my wife or shooting. I have a farm permission where I shoot grey squirrels, wood pigeons, magpies, crows, rats and pheasants.. I’m usually out on the farm about four times a week. I will be out more come the winter when I will be at the farm, shooting rats with my night vision kit.
My weapon of choice is my HW 100T in .177 flavour, I also own a BSA Scorpion in .177 flavour and a BSA Ultra in .22 flavour. The Ultra is my go to gun for ratting..
Once again, thanks for having me.
Happy hunting.
Regards.
Les.

Welcome along Les. Shooting rats with a single shot rim fire .22LR is a fond memory of mine as a boy.
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
