Chris NI Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Hi everyone, ive just got into the sport of shooting and have recently put down a deposit on a second hand Ruger 10/22 .22 rifle. I am in the process of filling out my FAC application but im finding it hard getting suitable shooting land. Has anyone got any advice for me? Thanks, Chris.

Chris NI Posted September 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 My gf lives in Broomhedge, about 2 miles from Moira, that's where I would like to get some land to shoot on. Im a bit reluctant to go door to door as I don't have any experience with hunting yet. Ive been doing archery/crossbow/airgun shooting for a few years but havnt done any real shooting yet. Do you think this would be a problem with getting permission? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this would be a problem with getting permission? I have permission on loads of farms in and around Moira. It wasn't easy getting permission and it's hard work keeping it.
