Millet 4,497 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Thank you for that advise! I know that they do make a double barrel, but my main concern is that it wont be silent at all and so fairly pointless. The reason for ferreting being a problem is that in horse land there are some folk who own a small holding that love their fluffy bunnys and so we have an area of very high population that leachs into the rest of the land, meaning that even with ferreting through everywhere etc, there is still a constant through traffic at night, they then return to safety in the day. Apart from moonlit ferreting trips its a pain, and shooting by night seems the best bet. Could you not knock several drop boxes up and stick them along the fence line, it would mean you sticking some rabbit netting up in the area the drop boxes will be used but they are pretty effective and you could go at night by torch light to empty them.. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/96170-rabbit-drop-boxes/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
