How do you know Dave doesn't have his own Holland & Holland style shooting simulater?

I've been quite eco friendly so far this season, 3 trips to the marshes and not had a shot.

Nice to hear it's being managed well 👍

I certainly can't fault your enthusiasm and commitment, I'm curious as to whether you struggle with the right balance between number of members and land available to shoot?

It was nice to meet you as well mate, unfortunately I didn't have a shot and experienced some pretty harsh weather. All cartridges now sold, thanks for the interest.

No worries I'll PM you

Evening pal, gamebore's are 65mm and the fiocchi's are 67mm.

No worries motty I still have your number so I'll drop you a message.

Evening, I have a few cartridges for sale which are no longer of any use to me. 20g Gamebore Traditional Game 24g 6 Fibre x 28. £5 20g Fiocchi GFL20 25g 6 Fibre x 109. £22 12g Gamebore Patriot 34g 3 Plastic x 100. £10 12g Eley Maximum 34g 6 Plastic x 55. £5 I live in South Lincolnshire and Shotgun Certificate must be seen prior to any sale. Cheers

Thanks for explaining, I admit to only moaning to my FLO about the fee, I await to see if a court case happens any time soon but I'm doubtful.

Unfortunately Scully a lot of people are in the same boat as me, members of BASC through wildfowling clubs, unless the clubs go elsewhere there's not a great deal we can do. Out of interest I'll ring BASC tomorrow to see what the current update is if there is one, too late for me as I've paid but I can see what they're doing for people who have made a stand.

In other words I take it you're saying you'll pay? If so what will your protest be? Interesting to hear Notts are on the same bandwagon, I like how BASC say they will protest it, did they elaborate how they intend to do this? If it's the same way as Lincs then most people will be removing dust from their guns before they get chance to use them again, I don't mean to have a dig at BASC, I just believe they mean well at times but simply don't carry enough clout.

I understand your point completely, problem is lincs police have made clear their intentions and all we got told was refuse to pay. This is all well and good but then what? I would be interested to hear of anyone who has made a stand and not paid to see how it panned out for them. I can see it being rolled out more widely after talking to my FLO, he said it's already showed up a few people's dishonesty.

No conditions to disclose, call it begrudgingly accepted if you will, no I wasn't happy about it but like Big Mat and CharlieT have said, no report no certificates, I even got an email reminder stating unless I sorted the report then my application would be withdrawn. I believe that both options seem to be correct, however if you don't pay I reckon you will not be shooting for a very long time. I'd love to stand up with my principles intact however I enjoy going shooting and I ain't no Martin Luther King.

Or Jules was having an off day....
