no we are not the strictest country in europe,if you do your homework some other european countries are restricted to lower power than uk.also quite a few of these countries do not allow any kind of hunting with air guns.as for being more likely to mame with lower power,all the more reason to practice your accuracy and know your limits.

And Scottish estates asking for a minimum of .308 is tosh. Most of the pro stalkers use .270's, as they are better at longer ranges, but some use the .243 quite happily, plenty of power out to a good range, and a lovely flat trajectory.

 

Some countries in Europe don't allow ANY air weapons other than on some kind of licence.

holland has no power limits on air guns I think .but you cant have a toy gun or air gun that looks like a firearm this is a crime .I might be wrong .
