you'd be wanting to do positive Id before lauching anything from a powder burner.
Just out of point of interest. Had the plastic ring in binos eye piece crap out the other week ( spotter 4-10x 15 at a guess. Label came off years ago) love my spotters, leave scope spotting for dead. Turns out the cap of a listeren bottle was the perfect size to make a new out off. She's all number 8 this way lol. |

Probably is a decoy, a Hare jumped across the drive way on the way out this morning. And I spotted on in the farm out the back at 80m this afternoon. I'll give them a bit longer to breed so there this more 😜

Oh yea, that'd get me too. It was probably a decoy to occupy you while they munched your flower garden.

When you're waiting for game to appear from your hide in the evenings, Scotch thistle heads at 90yds are a real challenge!!!
And when there's no thistle heads to blow away (!), Cabbage White butterflies are fun too! You never get bored whilst hunting with a silenced air rifle!
