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.

Do you carry these or are you stationary?
Hi Christel, I mostly am stationary,but, the top one (Deben Max) only weighs 14ozs and makes very little difference to the balance of the rifle.

The voltage could well be dropped to 10v or similar on the accessory point of modern cars. Li-Ion batteries are good in that they are very light but the voltage falls off very quickly once they are discharged so you will get virtually no warning of a flat battery, well apart form no light and you just know that will happen at the worst possible moment.

I used to run a small lead acid cell for house alarms, I think mine came from Screwfix, they are small enough to leave a spare in a bag and they are easy to charge with a normal car charger so no need for specialised (expensive) chargers.

I think with the new Lithium Ion batterys from Deben have a built-in meter to show how much charge is left,but as I said earlier is down to cost,the 12v 4ah is £89.95, and the 12v 8ah £119.95, OUCH!! :shock:
