"The Dromia Rule"
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.

Anyone considered to be a scammer will be banned without warning.

Re: Killing Squirrels
My squirrel permission is only 9.something acres, I've found the sub 12 air rifle works well if i want to shoot more than one. Skin them as soon as possible seems to be a good tip, and pressure cooking is the way forward.

Re: Killing Squirrels
It is. Best pies I ever made were rabbit, squirrel and pheasant.
The squirrel you need to slow roast then pull the meat off. The bones are tiny.

Re: Killing Squirrels
You needs a Breton Gaucher Quiet Thing

It looks and pawdles like a rifle, and is supremely accurate with shot or slugs. If you shoot a tree rat all you hear is the klik ! of the firin' pin followed by the thump of the tree rat obeyin' Newtonian Theory and collidin' with the ground.
If you shoot slugs at 6" steel gongs at 30 mards, all you will hear, as Triffid will attest, is "klik !" "DING!"
