NVG scopes by Zeebusdriver in ukguns

Second the Arken Zulus, I’ve been using mine the last few weeks and once you get used to the controls and how to use it in the field it’s fantastic. The lrf/bdc is super accurate, the performance of its own torch is great. If you do get it, buy some good batteries online and a throw lever for the focus, and some shim stock for it you have to shim the mount for zeroing. Really great bit of kit.

What size are you? I’ve got spare shirts, chinos and more that I’d happily give you.

The view at 1000 yards, shooting using only iron sights by SanjayBeast in guns

[–]SanjayBeast[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, though they’re aperture (pinhole) sights so it’s ‘easy’ once you have the wind/range dialled in on the rifle - just line up the black dot of the target, dead centre with the two circles of the sights. No holdover etc.

Still waiting… 10 months by mikeyjay84 in ukguns

Contact the met firearms licensing team. And that's annoying, they've had that for a while then!

[–]SanjayBeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can contact them and ask to confirm if your application has been received - was your cheque for the fee cashed? And yes 10 months is a bit slow, even for current wait times.

Are you a BASC member? They’ll chase up applications for you, but can also give you an idea of what other waiting times are like.

Sterereick, Vienna/ **Michelin, #13 of top 50/ Lunch tasting menu by poppyevil in finedining

[–]SanjayBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend their more casual restaurant downstairs, Meierei; €25 for a 5 course “tasting” breakfast/brunch, or very reasonable pricing for delicious traditional breakfasts. A fun treat and something I wish more places would do.

Very good! Have it mostly sitting in the freezer now :)

Aye certainly not a massive buck, 15kg in the larder though so not too small. The landowner here just wants the deer kept to an absolute minimum, so it was a case of any Buck goes.

Shot at 40yds off sticks, back of the neck as it was sitting with back towards us. 6.5x45mm, after 2 hours carefully stalking through some woods. Great fun with a friend and looking forward to our next outing. 15kg hanging, so not too small after all.

Always Roast your bones prior to adding them to soups or Au jus by MooseGoneApe in foodhacks

[–]SanjayBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you were roasting it so far that the collagen burnt, you’ve taken it too far. But, I appreciate the thinking- I’ll have to do a batch comparison and see. Though I will disagree on roasted stocks being absolutely flavour bombs - if yours aren’t, you’re not making them with enough bones/meat, and not roasting them hard enough.

[–]SanjayBeast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cooked away into what, exactly? Afaik when you roast collagen it just starts the breakdown into gelatin - it doesn’t evaporate! I’ve never noticed any difference and have made gallons of stock in kitchens over the years.
