Spaniel Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 That would brighten up the xmas shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy75 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 We have 8 on our shoot, and they hardly ever fly. Only as a last resort upon impending doom from a keen Spaniel, then it's a vertical take off into a tree, to sit 6 foot off the ground. Yes we are taking an air rifle to ours nearer Xmas.

Ferretboy111 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 You could eat them for Xmas yup- although the hens don't make much of a bird, hence why they can fly. An air rifle would dispatch them if shot in the head. Thanks Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Alex The last one I shot was with a .177 at 376 yards, pellet entered straight through the eye socket, exactly where I was aiming. :unsure: :blink: Made good eating too.
