  1. The problem is not sufficient habitat, the problem is the lack of predators to decimate the population of other predators, i.e. fox, badger and so on. lynx and eagle owl for example do prey on these smaller predators, so does wolf. and if you have even the littlest common knowledge about biology, you might know, that a population that grows beyond natural capacities will be most probably decimated by disease. You guys don't have the rabies over there as far as I know - we do. In the 1970s Foxhides (holes? what are they called?) were gassed to get a hold of rabies. Another reason for shoot
  2. I just shot me my first badger! Was sitting in a tree stand since 8pm in a meadow lots of roedeer around me when I felt that there was something moving at the edge of the woods.. looked through my binos and there she was - missus badger. as it was already getting darker, I turned on the red dot and let her have it. 110meters - 308win. I skinned it and will bring it to the taxidermist tomorrow... do you guys hunt badgers?
  3. if the choke is tighter than half, it is recommended to use shot sized maximum 3,25mm (number4?)
  4. thank you all for the warm welcome! @rabbit_killer - thanks for mentioning the b.a.s.c. I just googled it and they really do have a helpful page.
  5. my everyday main rifle: steyr pro hunter mountain in .308win with a meopta 3-12x56 scope: my "self pimped" boar rifle: it used to be an old guardia civil FR8 mauser, I added a butler creek stock, weaver base and a burris fastfire red-dot sight. shoots quite well for an old military rifle with a red dot as you can see on the cardboard thingy behind the rifle (4shots on 100meters) and while I'm at it, not a rifle though, my crowbuster: remington 870, 12/3"
  6. Hello! I'm a 25 year old hunter from Germany. I like hunting roedeer and boar, but also shoot a lot of foxes (21 since june this year), pigeons and crows. pigeons and crows mainly using decoys. We also have a German Shorthaired Pointer... I really like reading in British and US Forums on hunting because you always get new input regarding hunting tactics and techniques. I'll be working near Bath as a teacher from October this year until June next year and I was wondering if I could go hunting there - 8 months without hunting would be rather tough on me. I don't know any
