Re: scope size & line of sight

So long as you are happy in what you believe, then there is no case to answer. So long as the aim points you use in various circumstances work for you, then that's fine by me. If you want to tell us what works for you, then that's useful information that others may want to try. It's a shame you live...

Re: Tattoo

I only have 2 tattoo's. Both are well hidden, were designed by myself, for myself. They relate to the time I spent travelling Australia and New Zealand, when I first took early retirement. Every time I see them, they bring back irreplaceable memories.

We lazily walked along the hedgerows, but spotted nothing. Buster had a bit of a dip in the brook, then we w...

Re: Ultimate Sporter

Sometimes you just have to grab the bull by the horns. Yes, I agree with you, it IS a lot of money should you not get on with your ...
