New rat shoot

[optelic2 48]

Earlier this week i was lucky enough to pick up two permissions from the same farmer. One is a rabbit shoot and the other a rat shoot. The rat shoot i visited earlier on today for a quick recce. The rat shoot consists of a big old fashioned grain barn with breeze block walls with wooden interior support beams and a mainly wooden roof. Inside its mostly open with only a couple of interior walls and with little grain in it at the moment.

There was a large amount of rat droppings and numerous holes inside and even more of both outside!! 30yds or so from the main grain barn is another open brick built building containing numerous piles of farming rubbish old machinery, grain sacks etc and also plenty of evidence of rats.

I decided due to lack of time and weather conditions this evening just to spend a quick hour in the big grain barn using the Ultra/ns200 combo which was perfect for this shoot. I ended up with 11 rats and 6 more that i couldnt get to. Im looking forward to spending more time on this shoot as it definatley has potential for some big bags.
