Sounds ace.  Might try it with chicken.  That said, I was watching some bunnies in the field opposite so I could throw a little lead at them.

what l;ead tho matey ..? shotgun?

[WG.]

No, I sold my shotguns and only kept on the Firearm Certificate.  I have a .22 Krico bolt-action rifle with moderator.  Use sub-sonic ammo and you can get a row of three rabbits before they know the others are dead.

I couldn't hit anything with a shotgun anyway & when things tightened up (rightly so) after the Dunblane shootings, I sold them off.  A wonderful old .410 double barrel poachers gun, and the other was a Purdey!

They're everywhere! One caused havoc in my garden whilst on the loose until the cat managed to get it but not before nibbling my leaks and spring onions!
