  2. "blue Peter"fox trap.

    Love how resourceful you have been there Phil. Your dead right about people dont bother making stuff anymore. I love watching the old ferreting videos on YT where the old boys still making their long nets/purse nets and ferret boxes. great to see. would love a day on the coneys with these...
  3. Copper Ammo

    that seems more like it mate, surely had to be a significant increase otherwise why would most people not use it. for me it doesnt make sense until forced too. as both will inherently cause damage whether lead/copper, and to me is part of the process. thanks for commenting

  5. Fur and Feather

  11. Copper Ammo

    Can anyone please let me know if I should be using copper ammo 100% of the time now, a havent seen any legislation suggesting this but is it now best practice within the shooting community? Mixed deer stalking and foxing, assuming betterment if carcass for food chain. any help appreciated lads?
