So I take it that I don't need a licence as long as I stick to what I'm supposed to shoot ( on my permission ).

Also what are " avian" species.

Thanks

Muzzie

 

Birds dude, Birds.

Mate, if you need to ask what can be killed then you have no business hunting in the field alone, get your mate if he knows to show you and help you identify all the legal quarry, WM

Nope. Avion is French for aeroplane, and you won't have much luck shooting those.

 

Avian comes from avis, which means bird in Latin.

 

As others have said, you need to test pellets to find your rifle's favourite, then practise until you can hit a one-inch kill zone at your normal hunting ranges. Otherwise, your permission will come to an abrupt end when the landowner or one of his guests sees a wounded rabbit running past, screaming and bleeding.

Many Land owners do not like Hares being Shot on their Land

 

Not offically a Air Gun Vermin -

 

Big issue with many Land owners is Shooters picking up and removing Shot Vermin

 

Several I shoot have old Fashion Roman Burners to clear un required controled Vermin

There is no such thing as officially air gun vermin, and a hare is game not vermin. but seeing as he doesn't know what he can and cant legally shoot, I would suggest he sticks to the basc list providing he can shoot and have a good read of the GL.

Join BASC!. You'll get loads of info off there site. If you're still not sure about something you can call them. You'll be insured for public and product liability. They'll help out if you ever have any problems with the Police. If you try for new permissions it's good to tell the land owner you have all of the above. I wouldn't be without my membership.
