fox_hunter 1 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Don't like the hmr. Hardly see em Plus got Mates with 243,22-250 and stuff they can shoot them Quote Link to post
pestcontrol121 11 Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 22 rimfire mate The FEO said to me if your going to shoot fox with your 22 rimfire. Make sure u got high velocity bullets and it's close so a certain kill Thats good but has he put fox on your ticket in black and white ? A lot of people think because they have vermin on the ticket they can shoot fox this is not the case, you must state fox as part of your quarry. Quote Link to post
fox_hunter 1 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 I hate got my ticket yet, but he asked what I wanted to shoot. I said rabbits. And fox. He said that's fine. But use high velocity rounds and closer the better ! Quote Link to post
davegilly 1 Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Ive applied for 17hmr; faster, longer range bullet (but personal opinion i think tbh) but anywasy, i wasnt even guna mention foxes to the firearm lady. I just said rabbit control and corvids, she was just like 'and the odd fox if you want, but make sure it is at a reasonable range, 60/65 yards max'. :thumbs: ... and that was that, no more was said about it lol.

elvolcan 0 Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) your original question of couse !! How long does it take to come once the FEO has been? Mines been 6 and a half weeks now and still waiting ? unless you have any other questions you'd like to ask them lol - they're normally pretty helpful in my experience Edited June 1, 2011 by elvolcan Quote Link to post
