  12. The demise of lead shot and small bore shot guns

    in Bullets, Cartridges and Reloading

    Posted

    As we all know there are some real BASC **** lickers on this forum, they know who they are, don't be swayed by their bias opinions, make your own mind up about Basc whether they truly represent the fieldsports community or accept members money to fuel their own ideologies whist on a nice wage and pension, having been betrayed once over the  unproven reasons for the ban on lead in wildfowling, 20 years on we find another very similar scenario, No "judas john Swift " this time as he heads up the "LAG" !!!!!! but like minded Swift disciples, if you belong to one of these traitorous organisations to receive insurance cover whilst participating in your chosen past time, there are two options available, C3 country cover insurance, and the Scottish Gamekeepers Association who vigorously oppose the lead ban voluntary or not, and both Half the fees of the organisations that amazingly amalgamated on this latest ban yet could not on the General Licence fiasco months earlier, stay safe and happy hunting !!!!

    I have used my 8 gauges as a regular goose gun and a 4g on occasion especially at the latter end of the season, though last season they didn’t get out as much as I was overwhelmed by the performance of TSS through the 12g 

    there is nothing better than being on the marsh waiting for the first flight with a 130 year old gun  , knowing it will still bring down a bird or two.

    ……..and can vouch for the devastating use Fandango puts his 4 bore to on the foreshore at Geese ,stone dead at ranges a 12 or 10 bore could only dream of

    Ill pick up another percussion gun at some point absolutely.Big bore perhaps.On the subject of upsetting other fowlers.I walked that shore nightshooting from dusk till dawn as a boy with my old man.that was 45 years ago now.Without being flippant.If some young lad feels his semi auto is not getting enough work or his trigger fingers rusting up and wanted to blame me well,i think my sensitivity would stretch to  pointing  the way back to his 4x4 black monster truck that seems to be the "cool" car of choice these days.My father used a black powder Tolley 10 hammergun for decades, fowling with no effect on the wildfowl other than to those that ended up with BB in their chest.Interesting though,what in your mind is the factor that would cause such a reaction?Popularity? dave if they dun like it then they can go on home.We read posts constantly of big bags and cowboys skybusting all over the place yet these fellas seem to be almost hero worshipped in some strange sort of way.If a bloke cant take out a traditional fowling gun for  a bit of true sport  then its a sad day indeed.Someone fancies a shot,come over to me and ill gladly pass my gun over to them for a go.But a bloke  complaining?Ive saved up some colourful metaphors over the years.id share one or two with him 

    Absolutely correct Bishop, the pogo stick skybusting numbers gang will finish wildfowling , and the bulk sat back and did nothing to stop it. 

  20. BASC Wildfowling Conference.

    Hi all, can anyone confirm or deny that BASC and CA have consented to a voluntary Lead ban from 2024, despite "No scientific evidence " as to the effects of lead shot, in fact a new report states that the rusting of steel shot in water is a far greater threat to marine life, anyone who does Facebook have a look at "Save our lead shot" group, Ian Summerell  who started the group is a very well informed man , There are big rumours that certain people running Basc and the C A are our enemy within, and if you think this is not possible cast your mind back to a certain John Swift, the crock of **** who is heading the campaign to totally ban lead shot, Basc has recently removed its logo from the Lead ammunition group webpage, could this be for fear of upsetting its members and to distance itself from L.A.G but it is still involved at the L.A.G meetings, are we as Basc members contributing financially to our own downfall ?

    remember that despite the AYA being an outstanding gun they are not  multichoked  nor are they steel proofed to my knowledge thus if you were ever to fall foul and have some mishap your shooting insurance would be void.

    I have a #3 that is Teague multi choked and steel shot proof, could be for sale , how would you price that in vgc?
