I don't often get the time to post but I felt I needed to.... Just got back from my annual trip wildfowling duck and geese, (Location Scotland) met a number of shooters who still think its ok to use LEAD shot below the high water mark, well can I tell its not.. only Steel and Non Toxic shot must be used on the foreshore below the high water mark in England & Scotland, So for those of you who are putting our sport at risk please don't... See BASC guidance https://basc.org.uk/lead/ It was nice to see so many shooters but please stop using lead shot - it would be so easy for you to loose your licence and get a fine and could place conditions on wildfowling shooters in the future I don't make the rules but following them, yeah sure steel shot is not as good as lead but still managed to down birds with steel and non toxic shot, So stop putting my sport at risk by using LEAD shot you know who you are...... Now I expect some of you to reply and that's fare enough but I am not interested in a battle just making my point.... As Lord Rockley would say I am having a Rant,

last years vid, I fell in the river this year...lol and my iphone is drowned so no vid this season https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbqjAWT846A

on the foreshore we use gamebore no 1`s 3.5 magnum 42g for geese, maximum half choke, enjoy

you are not alone my friend....! its almost time lord Rockley....

I love my job, it simply...the best I am an RFD. and get to play with loads of toys.

Its all good when it comes together, good shot.

good vid, well done.

Very nice indeed,

Hello Wanted rifle in .243 (screw cut prefered) consider full set up ... Also LBR in 38/357 Slots available. Can travel Regards Derek Hunter2

I always slip it empty,be it shotgun or rifle when crossing over a road, As I understand it, I would be committing an offence of having a firearm in a public place!

A good day then!, It quite often happens that you go out and not see anything. Field craft takes time to develope and the next time you go out you know what to expect to see and the locations of your quarry. Knowing safe back stops and range/distance is very important. Enjoy your permission and each time you go out you should see and learn something different For years I have shot on three farms in hertfordshire and last year I moved to the NW and now have a farm permission in yorshire and have been out half a dozen times it has 10 different fields to have a go at. its all seems new and different and will take time to learn the layout. For rabbits: dawn and dusk seems to be one of the best times to go. Enjoy your permission and be safe. Regards Hunter2 Derek

Congrats, (Make sure you get the credit)

Derek Here, been a member of PW for a while now, relocated to sunny Chadderton in lancashire from Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire borders. Keen rough shooter and enjoy pest control in all weathers. Miss the farms I shoot on in hertfordshire,:( Will start looking for new places to shoot in lancashire this year but it looks like I would have to travel to other areas to seek crop farms to shoot over, So anyone local to me would like to introduce themselves, maybe get a round of clays in at Manchester clay Happy new to all, Regards Derek Hunter2
