I assume others have had similar problems, I have a 223 for vermin control as on application I did not shoot deer. The land I now shoot on is only cleared for 243, so I can't apply for 308 unless I join a gun club, there are none near me at glossop. My futher problem is the ground i shoot on at the moment has no deer so will struggle getting even 243 now as I already have 223.
I realise I can use estate rifles, but would rather have my own rifle for the job. Has any one got round this one. I assume you can't use your land just to zero then go deer stalking else where.
Would rather have 308 as I've been told 243 is not enough for red, but it's looking like I'm getting neither. I would like to get into deer stalking, however the rules to get started don't help.
