30-6 Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Answer this scenario. You've called in a fox to say 100 yards, trouble is it's the other side of a square mesh sheep fence. You can't see the wire. Do you, shoot and hope you miss the wire or not shoot ? Personally I do not shoot, but watching some videos they seem to have no worries and shoot and seem to get away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalkedUp Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 How far between the sheep netting and fox? If it is tight just the other side of the netting any deflection from an unlikely hit would have minimal alteration to the bullet’s course. If the fence is half way then not a chance as any shot would happen due to risk of a bullet escaping its backstop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jall25 Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 I would not shoot And indeed have not done many times Bait the foxes to safe areas - feed every day and it becomes far easier and safer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
