I suppose there's a small risk,ive heard stories of people shooting themselves in the foot but i dont know anyone who has so they could just be stories,for a ricochet it'd have to pass through fox hit ground and pass back through fox again so i would'nt worry too much about it,one thing to be wary of is dont always assume the fox is dead after you've shot it,99.9% of time it will be but ive heard of people holding them thinking they were dead and next thing its come round and got hold of their leg :o:laugh:

Having witness literally hundreds shot a point blank range, i can only remember a couple of riccochet,s, but the master wasn,t a particularly good shot. The mistake folk make with these .22 single shots, is using a standard long rifle cartridge, its way over the top. A .22 short, or ever the little .22 cb cap will do the job , more than adequately.

I think it is a shame and dangerous not to take away the small arms from hunters. I for one would not feel at ease if i where to do a search for a wild bore because of a shot that was not dead on ( excuse the pun ) but I would not feel a lot better if I had to look for the bugger in some shubs with nothing else then a 22 single shot pistol. In fact I´d rather not go and look, because a .22 single shot is not the sort of thing to convince a boar to quit fighting. If I wanted to piss the off big style,that is another story, but I am not brave enough for that ( stupid and old ) My sidearm of choice was a ( not made any more) Colt Python 4 inch barrel in .375 SS because a rifle is no use to point and shoot when you get in the shrubs.

 

Just my 2 cents worth

I think, that the goverment should be a bit more lax ( spelling ) what small arms are concerned in the way of hunters that have an FAC
