Totally agree would be nice if they field tested a few of the lower end of the market of gear. I do enjoy reading it though, and theres nothing else to read.The magazine could do with more in depth articles. It doesn't take much more than a half hour to read from cover to cover.
I really don't like the information regarding the equipment used at the end of a story, who the hell can afford to shell out the prices on some of the kit? I know I can't. Why can't the contributors go stalking in army surplus gear that costs peanuts instead of clothing and gear running into thousands? Why not review the cheapest and most affordable stalking kit and let us know what that's like? Not all of us are sponsored by the biggest and most expensive names on the market, I wish they could take a little reality check once in a while.
They may be half way through a stalk or lamping trip and you get the full what they are wearing made by so and so.
Or you just have to have this brand new rifle/scope/mod or lamp.
Someone must be getting some serious backhanders somewhere down the line.

A great paper, they send me every issue for some reason, I havent got a clue why but it saves me a fiver.Does any body get modern gamekeeping magazine/paper, its more or less the same contributors.
Some articles are similar, but there is one or two interesting articles on gamebird health and normally one on trapping.
Just checked the price on it, at £4.95 it's enough but is there anything else to cover keepering ?
aye thats right they bill at the end of january.A great paper, they send me every issue for some reason, I havent got a clue why but it saves me a fiver.
