Did the 6.5 not group very well then?

restoring it will be problematic. You could get the whole shotgun hydrodipped in realtree or any other pattern you like.

I don't think the phrase "Any other lawful quarry" is open to much interpretation??? The only debate is over the word "quarry" it is doubtful this would include dispatch of livestock for example but there is no doubt that deer are a quarry species. Tom

If your certificate says "Deer" OR its says "Any other Lawful Quarry" AND you have a suitable calibre rifle (.220 calibre with ME >100 ft/lbs and bullet weight >50 gr) then you can legally shoot Muntjac. Only shoot heavily pregnant does as they breed all year round and could have dependant young otherwise. Tom

I prefer a different approach. Find a shoot to beat on, that way you get to know the farmer/landowner and then at the end of the season ask if they need a hand next year with pigeon/pest control. Make friends with the other beaters and guns and doors will open up for you. As a bonus you get some lunch +/- money and a brace of pheasants. I hate cold calling people, especially overworked and underpaid farmers! Tom

I have a 28" Maxus and love it. I use it for pigeon decoying, wildfowling and rough shooting and its great. It is much longer than a 28" O/U but still very manageable in the hide and the speedloader function is excellent. The only loads I have had fail to cycle are 24g 65mm loads at a clay ground but to be fair the manual says a minimum of 2 3/4 inch and it cycles 65mm 30g pigeon loads without any issues.

Browning Maxus.

Be careful having 2x moderators in the same calibre unless you have 2 slots on your FAC!
