Recommended Posts

Not to derail another thread , was curious if any of you guys had experience with these FOX bullets ? Apparently their made in the eu somewhere ( Slovenia I think ) ? Curious anyone here as tried them and what y'all though ? Seems to be a good bullet

I don't know anyone who uses 6.5 creedmore for fox and i certainly wouldn't. 

Since most fox shooting in the uk is done at night i cannot see what those big heavy loopy bullets would bring to the party.

When night shooting of foxes with n/v or thermal is the order of the day, flat shooting is king.

When i say flat shooting i am talking .204, 22.250, 243 using 55grn bullets.

Just winding you up mate. I have shot a few foxes with mine and dont rate it either , most were runners. If going foxing I take the centrefire,  foxes were opportunistic whilst rabbitting. I have shot rabbits and hares with it too that weren't dead either.

Despite having never heard of them, I think FOX is the brand name of the bullets as opposed to their intended use.

This ^^^ apparently fox is the maker or brand name ....yeah mabye it's a good thing y'all don't have fun sounding caliber name's ?

I know you was.?

I think it would be more humane to run a fox over with the motor than shoot it with a hmr.?
