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.

We think it'll produce a good few bacon sarnies. All we have to do now is cajole Mr Plod into allowing us one...

I've always thought the sporting thing to do with Boar is to use a double rifle. Seems to be the right thing to do. A real man v beast scenario with a Bowie as back up.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

I have a couple of "interesting invites" this year and have invested in a Sako 75 Stainless Synthetic in .300 Win Mag mounted with a Swarovski Z4i 1.25-4 x 24.

If I connect it's going down!

Countryman..

I had a Sako 75 in .270win great rifle. It had a nicely figured woodwork that crawling around Argyll after the Hinds knocked about a bit I should have gone for synthetic. As is usual (for me) I regretted selling it almost immediately.

I have the same rifle in 25-06 too. Been my stalking rifle for 15 years. Love it!

There is a synthetic 75 in .300 up on the stalking directory at the moment but the fella selling it is currently after over a grand for it.
