Bloody Brilliant mate that's the kind of thing I do. I bought an NV monocular ages before I bought my NV gun set up, bought a combro and targets before my first rifle. If you find the need to sell some of those pellets (even if only to get me out of Mel's little black book) I'll have some off you.

I would like a rifle in .25 but it would have to be a pcp
Awesome!
Loving these stories.
I guess many of us were introduced to our beloved boingers due to ratting needs. I've had one or two permissions years ago with a few Rolands to tackle, but never anything like as described above. I'd love it!

Agreed Tone, love it. I've seen YouTube vids at rubbish tips and barns that are completely overrun by 'thousands' of the gits ! I would love that. Mind you, at my little permission the most I've had is 15 in one night but generally only get four or five over around a four hour session but.. I wouldn't give it up for the world as I truly enjoy the anticipation of a target

Strangely, Tone, Kev's rat problem was responsible for me joining the BBS.
Shirl never really liked me twatting about with guns, then one day she got back from visiting Kev's wife and said to me that I had to go to Kev's place and shoot the rats there.
So as it would have been rude to refuse, I grabbed an old BSA Mercury I had and went to Kev's.
Now the Mercury having a 5.6mm bore was fed a diet of new Wasps (spit) and was accurate enough for close range ratting work, but the pellets I really wanted to use on rats were Hobbies, which didn't suite the Merc.
Now the only other full power break barrel I owned back then was a HW35 with porous cylinder, so I joined the BBS just to buy a new cylinder and I've been here ever since.
Haha!
Easy peasy that, Mike. Get yourself a nice, large wooden wardrobe. Y'know, one that's nice enough to be regarded as a nice piece of furniture. Maybe a few little tweaks inside it, if you like, like shelves, spacers etc. Make it secure....sorted.
Until you go and fill it up (like I did). A few months ago the Mrs fetched me some double gun hard cases - I can squeeze three unscoped rifles in each.
More storage required soon, methinks. The little Gamo that I got a few months ago has no safe home and if that little Supersport arrives soon, that'll be two requiring homes.......
Oh, and your good lady says the wardrobe idea's fine.
