Catch them in a net and kill them as they breed well and ruin your river and stream eco system.

Yes you can. I checked and was told fine. Just bought a .257 weatherby mag and picking it up tomorrow from Surrey.

The Chargot bio wads stopped around 15 years ago or more , they were a 32g 6 and the landowner didn’t like them taking years to decompose. I don't see what is wrong with a good fibre one but if these new obturator disks don’t decompose fast and perform well then what’s not to like I guess. On the coast line of england we find a fair few wads, who knows where they are from but judging by the state some have been in the water for a long time.

Truth is no country wants these people and many have the balls to say that but little old England has to take everyone and look after them when id guess 90% are economic migrants looking for money and that only.

Most big shoots round here are normal for this season. There will always be money and most people haven’t lost much from C19 ( of course some have but majority not). One big shooting friend of mine has a car lot and he says demand has been like usual since the last few weeks.

The rusty guns are apparently from a dealer whose premises was flooded. I’d not touch one unless it was £200 otherwise by the time you’ve re blacked it (£200) , had it stripped and cleaned (£175) and the wood sorted (£150) 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 not that far off a minty new one .

I don’t know the reason for declining numbers but I know they are still hunted a fair bit in Macedonia and Serbia. We have a white stork here in our meadows at the moment in Hampshire which is very rare. I see many when I drive in Europe in Hungary and Croatia .

Thank you Thanks

I had a Q7 3.0 on a 59 plate with grabber all terrain and used it for every day driving , european tours, livestock trailer towing 2.5 tons, off road round the farm, shoot days etc and was brilliant. As good as the VW Toureg 3.0 it replaced. I have a new style landcruiser now but the Q7 was the best on road driving car I had and it was fast , 230bhp I think. Sold it with 137k and fsh and someone bought it to use for horse trailer duties. If you have 10k budget I’d look at one or I’d lease something these days probably.

Sportsman were doing a Minix deal the other week so may be worth checking on their site

Hi, I live in Romsey and shoot a lot, overseas and here at home. Favourite sport is Roe buck stalking, Pigeon flighting in winter and Teal coming into splashes on my small farm ponds which I shot twice a year.
