A neighbour keeps a few ducks which are being steadily devoured by foxes, it's an easy short shot to hit them but what would be the most effective shot size for despatching these pests (the foxes that is!!), and is it legal to use a shotgun on them? Cheers.

BB or SG are fine for the job. I generally use SG with 36gram load they do the trick well but you need to have some choke in the barrel. Try not to use shot to small for the job 3 shot or bigger and head shots if poss.

 

Good luck

I find BBs and magnums at very short range come out like candles but are great for long range, say 40 to 50yds.

At short range i find you cant beet an Alfamax No 5. :devil::devil:
