unlucky mate, i am going to be looseing my shoot in december farmer told me he is selling up to move abroad or something he sold his land to a property developer-like we need more houseing.

Just got to keep searching the best hunt of all is the one to find land.

beare that in mind something i read in a book, it makes me feel better when i look at my rifle knowing i am going to have no where to hunt

Good luck getting another

I would have thought Equestrian Use would dictate the need to cull Rabbits- my largest shoot is an Equestrian Centre Im on there 3 times a week

well i would speak to the head man (or woman) and tell the what you have been doing.... and tell them that bunnies dig holes and horses dont like holes....it becomes very costly when a horse damages an ankle or fetlock.... go for it..... and good luck

All good suggestions. But its not the farmer who is worried its the horsey snob. She said she doesn't want a stray pellet taking out one of her horses eyes or something of that nature. These people know nothing about responsible air gunners they just see yobbos killing stuff for fun.
Hope she falls in a dollop of horse plop

I agree as a 17 year old responsable airgunner as soon i as i turn up there first image is that im a yob. It such a hard thing to prove that a young man can be carefully and respectful i just try to meantion my career and the company i work for to see if that helps.
