    You mean NO obviously! You just can't give up with the attitude can you!
  2. Deker
    Whilst the GL may have been poorly worded historically that is exactly the problem, people never read/understood it. The attitude that seemed to prevail (for those that even knew a GL existed) was, it's on the GL so I can shoot it, they never considered the conditions!!!!!!!!!!!????????
  3. Deker
    Agreed, this is not the time or the place to be shouting about potentially breaking the Law, however much of a pain this situation is, we need to show a responsible attitude! I understand that it was allegedly some twit shooting birds in a field next to Packhams house who didn't understand the GL that started this whole business!

    ERRRRRR, has he found any Big Cats in the wild in the UK then?

    Flippen 'ek, looking at the header this thread is 12 years old, even the first post shown is 7years old. That took some finding! Almost as an aside, never tried snaring rats, always had plenty of success with assorted traps and baits!

    I'm not sure who will actually be charged with enforcing the New GL. I suspect the Police, but they will no doubt plead poverty and lack of resources, so income tax/community charge will have to go up to fund more boys in blue....Thanks again Mr Packham!

    I'm pretty confident when (IF) England ever get them right, Wales and Scotland will follow pretty sharpish!
  8. Deker
    Your opinion about potentially breaking the law should be kept to yourself and not broadcast on a public forum, that does the shooting community no favours!

    Any reduction in barrel length will inevitably have an effect on accuracy, and potentially power as well. It you are shooting in the field at normal .22lr distances you will almost certainly struggle to notice any difference in accuracy though (depending quite how short you go). Target rifles have long barrels that maximise energy and stabilise the bullet as much as is sensible. Bullet weights/types and powders all come into this. For most .22lr ammo designed for field use I understand the powder will be burnt by around 14-16inches, and most .22lr twist rates are 1-16, I suspect th

    Your attitude and language stinks, there is no need for either! ..……...and not one of them has allowed you to show the pictures or posted any themselves!!!!!??????? Let me tell you, if I had EVIDENCE I would broadcast it to the world, because EVIDENCE is irrefutable and unquestionable, so if anyone had EVIDENCE why wouldn't they want to talk about it? They would be hailed a hero for proving it (not to mention make a fortune from the media etc), not ridiculed for posting jokes/hoaxes! Is it any wonder there is more than a degree of scepticism? 
  11. Deker
    READ MY POSTS I'm not the one going round insulting people. I have made it very clear that I accept there may be something to this, but NO EVIDENCE has been shown, and I have asked questions and been greeted with a foul mouth tirade. A certain person here is very happy to call people a prick and tell them to f**k off when he can't comprehend posts or answer questions.
  12. Deker
    Yep, that's more than obvious from the stupid articles and joke pictures posted so far!
  13. Deker
    Is this meant to be a joke, 4 of them out and not a camera of any sort between them, thought is was a Hare! If that's the best EVIDENCE you can produce I'd give up now! I've said several times there may be something out there, but this sort of article just makes a mockery of the whole situation.
  14. Deker
    So, NO response to the questions, lets just tell him to f**k off! How about trying to answer the points rather than totally avoiding the questions and hurling disgraceful insults. Is it any wonder there is more than a degree of scepticism?  You're not exactly helping the Big Cat cause with your attitude.
  15. Deker
    You obviously struggle with comprehension, need an attitude adjustment, and are without doubt part of the reason many think Big Cats in the UK are a figment of deluded minds!
  16. Deker
    Here we go again... I know its' for real but it will cost a lot and they will lie with the result so I'll not bother and you will all have to believe me and if you don't you're a prick. What is the conspiracy, what is the secret, why would anyone lie about their existence IF they are out there!?? I have said several times I perfectly accept the likelihood of odd releases/escapees, but show me some current proof, not daft blurry pictures or ridiculous comments like, why would anyone show you proof with your attitude!
  17. Deker
    FFS just what is the big secret? "We have Evidence, we have pictures and DNA and road kill but we can't show you for obvious reasons, no labs in the UK will admit it, so you will just have to believe me, and if you don't you're a prick!" So, its a national conspiracy to keep the truth from the public. WHY? Is it any wonder there is more than a degree of scepticism?
  18. Deker
    Exactly, people post daft pictures like this all the time saying its irrefutable proof of Big Cats, absolute rubbish, it's foxes, corvids etc! Not a single sensible picture, video, body etc have I ever seen. With a breeding population of 250 of one type alone, seems more than odd we can't actually find a single one. Perhaps we need to call in Packham or Attenborough, Attenborough's crew always seem to find their target, seems finding a big cat in the wild in the UK would make an excellent program, so why don't they do it????????!
  19. Deker
    It would take even less effort for you to post the amazing evidence you have here!
  20. Deker
    Your comments are bang out of order, show me some evidence, stop hiding behind ridiculous posts or comments, just what is the secret all about. I'm out all over the country all the time and have been for nearly 50 years, I also have guys that work for me in many other parts of the country, and I know large numbers of people in the pest control and gamekeeper business nationwide, that amounts to being out far more than you. EVIDENCE is required, not opinion or suggestion or stupid pictures of domestic cats or deer eaten by fox etc. Seems some of us have far more experience than o
  21. Deker
    Breeding population of 250! Never have I seen a convincing picture, or video or kill damage or big cat body. I am not, and never have suggested that there has never been the odd big cat escapes/releases into the wild, but those trying to prove it are just bonkers with the articles and comments they make!
  22. Deker
    I really thought you were joking when you first said solid ammo is not allowed for anything but target shooting but you all know this dont you. What has led your region and local RFD to believe this is beyond me! Interestingly, things don't work like that the other way round, the use of Expanding ammo for target use is not a valid reason to acquire it. Section 10(2)(b) of the 1997 Act amends section 5A(4)(b) of the 1968 Act so that the use of expanding ammunition is in connection with the various exempted purposes. This allows, for example, a deer stalker or vermin shooter to

    scarecrow243, I am totally confused about what you are posting, which part of the above says, solid ammo is not allowed for anything but target shooting but you all know this dont you
  24. Deker
    I'm not following that at all, but you always could and still can use solid ammo on ANY wildlife it is Lawful to shoot with solid. Even on deer, (where the Deer Act 1991 specifies expanding) for the purpose of humane dispatch Solid could be shown to be lawful (under The Regulatory Reform (Deer) (England and Wales) Order 2007)
  25. Deker
    Your comment seems to have taken on a life of its own. As I suggested earlier you are taking the piss, either that or pig ignorant, SOLID AMMO IS ALLOWED FOR PEST CONTROL. As far as I recall there was never a Law about ONLY using Solid on rabbits etc. HP/expanding have been around for donkeys but were never commonly available for pest control and only very few were made. Their effectiveness and availability increased steadily and became the norm for Pest Control some years back. Time to get this thread back on topic!
