Dead-Eyed Duck Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I hope that you made sure that it was well fed and watered, and then let it loose in the countryside Looks a bit thin - no doubt waiting for the blackberries and acorns to ripen :yp: Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeshaw08 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Would you not blow the cage to bits with the 12b? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evoss Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Would you not blow the cage to bits with the 12b? .22 then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libs Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 .410 is one of the best dispatch tools on offer. But I am sure the OP will tell us what he opted for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipmoff Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I hope that you made sure that it was well fed and watered, and then let it loose in the countryside Looks a bit thin - no doubt waiting for the blackberries and acorns to ripen :blink: Don Dont forget to waste time and money neutering it first before releasing it into an area that is made up of sporting estates with keepers.

hill billy Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 put on a scream mask and shout boo ! don't you think 12 bore is a bit to big ! .22lr would be best the less blood you leave in the trap the better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smig4373 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I'd play it some coldplay and bore it to death...... .410 sounds like the best option,although ive never shot a fox in a trap before.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jef Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I had a cub this time last year and I used the .22 (rimfire). Worked well. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
