LOL

 

so whats the law on shooting pheasant with an air rifle then??

[Phantom 631]

With permission and when they are in season, it's frowned upon by the SGC holders but it perfectly doable and perfectly legal.

Not worth shooting with the air rifle unless you're going to eat them IMO..

so between october and february then.

and ducks between september and january.

 

somebody told me when i first started sooting thaat it was only legal to shoot these, in flight, so with shotguns..

 

so does that mean if there was a mallard duck on my permission sat in a small stream (made from rain water after its chucked it down for a week straight) and it was open season and i had my 97kt i would be well within the law to give it a .177 jsb to the head??

 

hope so because i love duck mmm

 

cheers for your help

Thats the ONLY reason I would shoot one Malt

 

Couldn't think of any other reason than that and I certainly aint a trophy hunter that just wants to tick them off the list so to speak.

Bet whoever told you that crap was a shotty shooter

Again if they are in season and of course you have the permission to shoot them then thats fine, but just don't try silly long shots, get well within your range I've only had the opportunity to put a duck in the oven a few times although resisted because I've not had the authorisation, appart from one and that tasted lovely
