    Not enough deer being shot in the UK

    There are ways and means! if your in Germany, I take it your in the military? if you have any contacts at Lakenheath or mildenhall air bases, come and hunt with me, pass the meat to a friend and see if they can’t internally ship it over for you? I smuggled home a 60kg wild boar back from...

    Not enough deer being shot in the UK

    This is very true, so far this season I have killed over 75 animals and luckily have managed to give most away as well what I eat myself. i am going to try and kill another 20 red deer this season but i very much doubt I will achieve that target because I have no outlet for the meat.

    Another weekend and more clients, but Lady Luck was on our side and it turned out to be a real quick affair, all done and back to the larder in under 3 hrs. the buck on the right is probably the biggest buck shot this year and I’m guessing to date full stop, it will make a massive Gold medal...

    Chinese water a deer

    It’s It’s not rape, a lot of the rape is very behind because of the dry start, that field is more like a thick rubbish almost self seeded, but they sure like it on there. I’ve seen them eat all sorts,grass wheat barley maize just about everything.

    Copper bullets

    I’ve shot a lot of game with Barnes probably into the 1000’s. in think half the problem is their loads are too hot and their being driven too fast. I loaded for the 6.5x55 and 270win and speed was 2850-2900fps and only has 2 instances where bullets penciled straight through and that was 2...

    Chinese water a deer

    this Buck was shot with 6.5x55 Swedish, personally I’m a 270 man, U.K. law states you can use .22 centerfire cartridges but that usually ends up with a search with the dog, my personal rule to clients is 243 win as a minimum
