[QUOTE="Jon2, post: 279047, member: 5149"] Thanks fellas If I get to catch up with him next time I will post a "take 2" version of events. Yes Stu I know what you mean. When mods were made legal in the UK I only had one of my rifles threaded for a T8 but then after using that rifle extensively I became addicted to them. I now have all my rifles threaded and never shoot a rifle without a mod unless I am abroad. I do a fair bit a fallow culling in the winter months down south and I am glad of the reduction in noise to mitigate against hearing loss. The other main benefit for me anyway is not losing your sight picture - seeing the bullet strike. It is also much easier I think to hear the strike on an animal as well. I know you can hear it sometimes with an un modded rifle but it is every egg a bird with a mod on. I will be camping out next time I am up so will be staking this buck out and I am going to get 4 "outings" to try and catch up with him - 2 morning and 2 evening stalks so hopefully I will get a chance next time. Can't wait. As I say I will let you know if anything happens. Thanks all PS Swali yes it was wet but very mild and the deer were very active (virtually no wind throughout the weekend). [/QUOTE]
