Dunkield Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 My howa hasn't liked any I've tried plus the shops around me don't stock much more than hornady Try some 52grn A max, they are perfect for muntjac. Nothing will drop them without damage but these do minimal and they drop on the spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing will drop them without damage but these do minimal and they drop on the spot. A-Max are NOT classed as Expanding Ammunition ( look on B.A.S.C. Web site ) so you or anybody else shooting Deer with this type of Ammunition are breaking the Law again look on B.A.S.C website site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you got what was expected dropping that one. ;-) A-Max are NOT classed as Expanding Ammunition ( look on B.A.S.C. Web site ) so you or anybody else shooting Deer with this type of Ammunition are breaking the Law again look on B.A.S.C website site You are correct they are not listed as expanding. But they do expand. Fact ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 looks like a sensible range for a neck or headshot I was going to suggest that too but would have expected (as my previous post) someone with a negative response, "can't do that it's not in the instruction book" type comment's.

6.5x55SE Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Well you got what was expected dropping that one. ;-) You are correct they are not listed as expanding. But they do expand. Fact ! They probably due expand mate . Whilst i to think some of our FAC rules are Pants the Law is the Law why risk your FAC by breaking it !!!!!! I wonder if ALL Projectiles/Missiles came under the Expanding rules eg can only be posted in the UK by RFD to RFD and entered on your Ticket would so many people believe flaunting the Law !!!!! I was taught to use Ammunition for what they was designed for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team tractor Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 looks like a sensible range for a neck or headshot I couldn't see his head or neck as it was in the bushes and wasn't worth the risk. Tastes the same tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm in the only town with no fallow :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm in the only town with no fallow :( There arent many deer around here though the odd fallow makes a showing every now and again. There are Muntjac in shropshire so just a few more miles and hopefully I will grass a couple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only 15 miles from Cannock chase so you'd think we would get more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 TT, there was a couple of Fallow on one of my perms, month's ago, but not seen them since. Muntys are on the increase though, I'll start and take a few as and when I need them, unless I get asked to get the number's down. And of course I can get to shoot them.

I've had two on this patch and the camera shows at least two more but the owner keeps having the trees eaten. He's seen a fallow once and my mates farm 3-4 miles away has had a few but I've yet to see them besides on the phone on text. He's asked me to set the camera up again so it could be interesting .

Also they can be shot all year round, so they provide sport during the quieter times, in fact I was doing that very thing when this posted - well an hour earlier...
