Evening All
Another update,this week we returned to our local shoot at Nelson there is always a few scaleys around the barns and duck shed,this week I have brought along my Air Arms TDR (Take Down Rifle) I haven't used it for a while due to it having an air leak but after watching some stripdown videos on Youtube and having advice from members of an airgun forum I decided to tackle the repair myself and possibly save £80 by not taking it to a gun shop. Well after a week of the gun in bits,waiting for new seals to arrive and carrying out some stock renovation its all back together and working well.
We arrived at the barns at around 6.30 pm now in darkness as winter starts to set in,priorities first put the kettle on for a quick cuppa and then off to do a reccy of the barns it wasn't long before the familiar squeaking of the scaleys could be heard so we set about putting down a bit of nice smelly bait in this case tinned cat food, this week we decided to just sit and wait so chairs at hand and my trusty old mono pod we firstly sat outside of the duck shed , well about twenty yards or so away and it wasn't long before them bright beady eyes started to poke out from under the door,but tonight they seemed really uneasy they knew something was wrong and didn't hang about in one spot for very long but after about two hours or so I managed to shoot five scaleys not bad really as to date we have shot hundreds of them, and best of all is my now fully refurbished Air Arms TDR works perfectly .
