Just take her on the stalk

But I don't have any named land of my own. When I first applied I had a small parcel of land that was turned down, that's when I asked my mate to mentor. His business is shooting so he does charge money, I just can't afford to keep doing it. It would be useful if I could get a condition to...

Thanks some useful advice. I had them allow me to shoot with other FAC holders then there would be much more oppertunties. Biker1 has very kindly offered to take me out for some shooting and I've gratefully acccepted. I'm just going to take my current stock of ammo along and then get some more in.

I only had to have a mentor as the peice of land I had was turned down for being too small. It was 13 acres in all, but not flat by any means.

Thanks everyone!!! I have made some good contacts and am thankful for all the advice and offers. Will keep you posted.

that would be great! i will need to get my ticket changed as it currentys says my rifles are only to be used "under the supervision of John Doe"

That would have been great, Only taken six rabbits so far.....in a year!

Done! :D I will be fair to my current mentor though as most of his shooting is done through bookings and he takes people out most weeks, it's just a bit pricey for me at the moment. He's a decent chap though.

I'd be happy just shooting some paper even. Only fired 100 rounds in the year that I've had it.

Hi Norma, I'd be very grateful if you could do me a letter stating I could come and shoot some bunnies with you. A few pints afterwards of course!!!!!

Hi Guys, The storys is I've had my FAC for over a year now and currently own a CZ .17HMR, and I've also space for a .222, which is listed for all vermin and legal deer speices. I'm just learning the ropes with this rimfire and w beforeant to shoot a few more rounds progressing to anything...

Wouldn't it be hard to get such a caliber for UK use?

Anyone own one for use in the UK? I'm not sure what stance the law takes in regard to calibers such as the .450 Marlin and similiar. It fires a large bullet, yes, but at slow velocitys. Would make a good boar and goat gun.

I and a friend are planning a trip abroad in the next coming years so I'm planning on getting a rifle that's chambered in a classic African caliber - it's my holy grail to have a big bore double:). I'm looking at something either a .416 or .470, so it's very, very doubtful I'd get it for UK...

So it is a mistake? Doe they have to list the rifles?
