    Airguns generally shoot lead pellets .

    And you cant use lead to kill waterfoul 

    And lead free pellets dont have the terminal capability .

     

    Great, thanks for that Stu that rules out the PCP option as Penelope has replied I think its the steel shot and shotgun route.

  2. Morning all,

    A friend of mine has a big problem with these on a private fishing lake, in a nut shell, can they be controlled or are they protected in this country and is sub 12lb silenced PCP an effective means or would you be looking at a shotgun ? My friend has access to either method if it's allowed and shots would be taken at no more than 25 yards hence me asking about a PCP, thanks.

    They will probably want another visit to check your cabinet, when my mate applied for his SGC he didn't have the cabinet in place and the FEO came back once it was installed and brought his cert with him. I had mine installed before my visit so can only go on my mate's experience.

    Hi my son in law has recently got his cert from Essex Police - he had to have some extra medical checks done which delayed it to about 7 weeks, his work colleague got his in 4 weeks without any extra checks again from Essex Police, hope this helps atb

  4. Afternoon guys, I have a Welsh Willy fully tuned Stoeger X20 Suppressor rifle which I have always used RWS Superdome as it's ammo diet which has been fine for rat shooting around pheasant feeders out to a max range of 17 yards. But I now have a desire to try some different pellets just to see if there is anything better for the rifle and was hoping for some suggestions as to which types to try. I will be buying selection packs from ebay to try in a couple of weeks time weather permitting when I have some time off, any tips would be much appreciated, thanks.

  5. Between April 2016 and October 2016 I shot 137 rats with a Stoeger X20 Suppressor and a red light off of ebay - yes I could and probably would shoot more if I had a PCP with a night vision device on it but it just goes to show you don't have to spend loads of cash to do an effective job.
