mark williams 7,549 Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 Had a nice couple of hours tonight just nipping the rabbit numbers again. The nursery is adamant all rabbits, whatever the size , are to be shot. Same goes for wood pigeons. 5 Quote Link to post

When I first took on this permission the nursery was losing up to £150/£200 per month in lost or damaged plants and ground repairs. Today they are paying between £10 to £15 / month, so you can certainly understand the " school of thought", all rabbits to be taken. Quote Link to post

Trouble is, I`m having a ball with the KT .177/ AA Fields combination for nearly 5 years now and I am loathe to changing with the 100,- " just yet" My compliments though with the advice you gave me over FAPS and JSB Exact Express in " all" my other rifles atb Mark. 1 Quote Link to post
