Blaser F16 Sporting 32" Grade 4 Stock in 12 ga
THE NEW SHOTGUN CLASS Passionate about perfection Ð The next generation of game and competition shotguns has arrived with the introduction of the new Blaser F16. Only through the restless pursuit of perfection is it possible to create a perfectly balanced over and under shotgun with the lowest profile action on the market. Performance and reliability are of the utmost importance and can only be attributed to the quality of materials used, individual craftsmanship and state of the art manufacturing technologies all packaged with an affordable price. Better results The low profile receiver provides an exceptionally low centre of gravity for the shotgun, makes it extraordinary pointable and dynamic, resulting in better scores. Perfect balance The accentuated dynamic and semi-rounded receiver body design make the new Blaser shotgun a companion that lies perfectly in your hands. Rapid implementation The thought impulse to ignition is rapidly implemented due to fast mechanics and a crisp trigger pull (1.650 grams / 3 lb. 10 oz.). Maximum concentration The Triplex¨ bore design, a tapered rib and the proven Blaser ejection system (EBS¨), which cocks the ejectors when the gun is opened, allows the shooter the highest level of concentration for the next shot. Extremely durable The innovative monocoque construction, the superior surface finish, high-strength materials and technological perfection are the best prerequisites for a long-lasting shotgun. Uncompromisingly reliable The Inertial Block System (IBS¨) prevents an involuntary second shot or the unintentional triggering of a second shot while maintaining a superb trigger pull.

Hunting Sika Stag in Ireland
Sika deer were introduced into Ireland over 150 years ago, through a private estate in County Wicklow. Since then they have escaped and spread all over the country. They are found in woodlands, bogland and mountain sides. They are very much like a miniature elk. The rut season which starts at the end of September and runs through the first week in November. A mature Sika stag is generally 8 points, although we have taken some that have 9 to 10 points. They are very elusive creatures and hard to hunt, the best times being early morning or late evening. Sika's on the hill can be taken anytime during the day. The size of a mature Sika stag is around 120lbs. They have superb eyesight and hearing, taking a mature Sika stag is a true accomplishment to any hunter!
