Hi,
I have just got permission from a landowner to shoot deer in his very small wood, this is connected to a large woods of approximately 100 acres.
It is a bluebell wood, so as you would imagine in the South has plenty of muntjac present, as well as some fallow and roe.
The land is flat so the only real prospect is to use highseats anyway. I am waiting for confirmation of the exact size of the woods before I then go to the local FEO to get the land cleared. My estimate would be 15 acres, no footpaths in or around the woods.
I am currently in discussions with my firearms licensing department to get an open ticket. But until then I will need to get the land checked, does anyone know what the deemed minimum acreage would be to allow me to use a .222 .243 and .270?
Cheers
Ross
