which gun to go use for foxing

[Dekers]

You need a true cylinder auto or pump ( so you can rapid fire ),12g, 2 3/4 inch , loaded with SSSG shot . squeak them in to 25 yards or nearer , no further, as pattern too thin . I have shot 25 this autumn near our free range hens .

 

Where do you get SSSG, I have never seen them in the UK? What is wrong with 3, BB, even AAA?

 

Why would you need to rapid fire at a fox less than 25 yards away?

 

How many goes do you need!?

Deks,

prob a typo SSG not SSSG,

 

and whats so wrong about having the ability for a 2nd shot and ASAP,

oh! It wasn't meant to be a question.

I did think about it and it was easier to ask the question.

We are not talking about a second shot.
