Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.

If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Never heard of it, but if it's anything like their other products it will do exactly what it says on the tin. ;) :good:

I use it a lot.

Sticks well, has a very pleasent smell and does a great job at waterproofing. Doesn't flash off as quickly as WD40 and therefore protects for much longer. Also good on wood and made a great job of softening my original K31 leather sling.
If you google it you will see the product has a long history and it was developed to meet the needs of one of the meanest war machines in history. Basically, it does what it says on the tin.

Just my tuppence worth :good:

I use Ballistol for all my gun cleaning (although I use Sweets for copper fowling) great stuff.
