i agree, i stopped buying the countrymans weekly a few year ago now, and used to prefer it when it was called the shooting news, much better articles in it then, and alot healthier on your pocket, at 65 pence per magazine, so all in all better value for money, and better reading in my opinion.......these days, not only are some of the things published in it quite silly, but also it seems to be filled up with adverts from different companies selling things, and to me it is not worth the price of it........
all the best,
