  1. canada geese is great eating. older ones can be tough as they can fly round the world 3 or 4 times. get a young one they are delicous.
  2. that is disgusting to hear! if i was the keeper i would send the beaters packing and find others to replace them and put the word about to other shoots about these beaters! sounds like jealousy and nothing else. Im sure you put your fair share of work into the shoot and that sould be highlighted to the beaters! cheers, mo

  11. Big John, that is a lead shot cart so we shall assume you are talking about non-wetland goose shooting in Scotland? The 3.5" shell is not of any benefit for lead carts in 12g or lower calibres. It is when lighter loads like steel are used in 12 and 10g that it can be very useful. The benefit of the 3.5" shell is that they provide a wider variety of steel shot loads and shot sizes than with the 3". Only Gamebore make the 3.5" shell in the UK and they load in UK BB's and smaller. By using the 3.5" they produce you get a higher pellet counts which is very important on flighting geese (

I say this with the hope that it does not start a debate, just a point. And since the switch to lead-free a number of regions have seen increasing survival of wildfowl through winter.

  15. Hi Dwighet....You can't legally use lead shot on a duck even if it lands in your back garden!! But you can legally shoot it with a rifle with a lead bullet...funny old world!!! (England & Wales) im sure it is not legal to shoot waterfowl with a single projectile.. to do so for pest control i think you need a special licence...
