    Break barrel or underlever?

    By way of an excuse for bump up the board.
    Any news of Carlleyland??

    I don't think there is a definitive answer to this question.

    Good bump

    I do fear the worst he set out bravely in the Winter with his rifle and peanut butter and it's now almost Spring !!. Perhaps it's one of those stories with a happy ending ? Hunter falls in love with Ratty type thing

    No - Fearless hunter, fired off his last JSB, but holds his ground, swinging his empty rifle at the advancing hordes, finally brought down by overwhelming odds.....

    More than two months, and still no word of a victor in this epic saga.
    I note the last line in the original post, right at the beginning of this thread - "I dont want to trap or poison the poor guy just get rid of him quickly"
    Some on Carlleylands - put us out of our misery please..
    Don't say you bought one of those low velocity .25 calibre guns and the pellet is still on it' way between barrel and ratty?

    .22 superstar.
    mate of mine was after one rat for ages. his off the market SMK cheepo. i rock up with super and did for ratie rat rat. got permision from the dairy farmer.
    simple thing. i watched for a while. learned his runs. then got him. what i learned he had kids. got them too. his Mrs. she was raiding the eggs. got her.
    took a bit to get Mr rattie rat. had to shoot under him and ricochet.
    the only thing i can find wrong is the nut on the steering wheel.

    Just checked his post history, chaps.

    He last posted on the 14th, so Roland didn't gnaw him to death!

    C'mon, Carl, did you get the little bugger??

    I think the rats may have a hostage, Carl if you get a message out let us know where you're being held and we'll send the SAS in!
