It is heavy-barrelled and has a 3-12x50 scope and JLS moderator. 3456 x 2304 Somerset shooter Paul Power (right) and Peter Horn, 3456 x 2304ORIGINAL ARTICLEThey are a contrary couple, Peter Horn and Paul Power. “Because everyone’s driving around on trucks at night to go shooting, we’re going the other way,” says Paul. “It’s a bit more lugging of materials – bags and lamps – but we reckon there’s enough technology in our guns and vehicles nowadays. It’s a question of taking a backseat on technology. So we shoot off sticks.And they are always arguing. “I shoot off two sticks,” says Paul. “Peter shoots off three sticks – because he’s older” – which provokes Peter at once, to Paul’s delight. They argue for a minute until honour is even and then it is back to the job in hand.Retired bank manager Peter and builder Paul have some 6,000 acres of permissions across farms in West Somerset. They shoot rabbits with rimfires but also have the firepower for foxes and deer. Paul favours a .22 and a .17HMR for rabbit shooting. Peter uses a .22 and brings his .22-250 in case they have to deal with a fox.“I acquired some of my permissions from my grandfather,” says Paul. “He had shooting rights dating back to the 1980s. I shot my first rabbit with him, aged eight, with a Belgian fold-away .410. Much of the rest of my land I got through recommendations.”Peter and Paul met 20 years ago through a local shooting syndicate. Peter had some ground. Paul says: “I did some deer management for him.”Peter adds: “He did – he shot all my deer.”Then Peter did a supervision order on Paul for a .222 he wanted. Peter’s shooting goes back to the 1950s when he was brought up in Nigeria. He recalls his .22 with iron sights which he used to shoot small game through chair legs on the verandah. Today his .22-250 is a Blaser R93 Luxus with a Nightforce NXS 12-42x56 scope and PES moderator. Paul's is a .22 CZ 452 with a Walther 3-9x56 scope and Soundbiter moderator and his 17HMR is a CZ452, too. It is heavy-barrelled and has a 3-12x50 scope and JLS moderator.All the guns

Charlie Jacoby interviews Roger FrancisRoger Francis, as you can see in the picture, has a slight interest in rimfires. That’s a CZ American .22LR isn’t it? With a 16in barrel? And do my eyes deceive me or has someone taken the time to fit it with a Hogue stock an – did I hear you say – tune the trigger? And would that be a Tasco 2.5-10x42mm Varmint scope aboard it? Yes, Roger has more than a slight interest in rimfires.While other kids Roger’s age liked air rifles and many graduated to centrefires, Roger stuck with rimfires for rabbits and, when he was allowed to, handguns for target shooting. For him, rimfires represent everything that stalking-shooting is about. They are light, manoeuvrable, powerful enough to despatch quarry and even objects of beauty and fun.Roger and his wife Sheila started South Yorkshire Shooting Supplies in 1985. They run it from their farmhouse outside Sheffield where it threatens to spill into every room. It was a handgun specialist but the 1997 handgun ban put paid to that and to 85% of the business. With the arrival of the Internet at about that time, Roger didn’t pull the plug, however. He concentrated his attentions on another side of shooting that interested him – rimfires. His shop is now better known all over the world now as Rimfire Magic.Roger decided to start base his rimfire business at first on the Ruger 10/22 as he felt that this little rifle would replace handguns for many shooters. That turned out to be the case. What he didn’t foresee was the interest these rifles would generate with pest control shooters. The business grew at a fast pace and now provides a complete service for pest controllers.Soon, it was not just little rimfires on the shelves. Roger started to sell all kinds of guns, ammuniti

010.jpg Alex Wiggins-Davies stalking in Lincolnshire on the Wiggins-Davieses’ Revesby estate, 3456 x 2304 Alex Wiggins-Davies, 3456 x 2304ORIGINAL ARTICLELincolnshire’s finestThe great thing about stalking in the Midlands is that it’s so close to the rest of the country. And the great thing about Lincolnshire is that it’s so wild, as Alistair Macgregor finds outIf you are sitting reading this in London or Birmingham or, best of all, Hull, you could stand up, walk out the door and be stalking within hours. The Wiggins-Davieses’ Revesby estate in Lincolnshire has lots of stalking to offer and lets you get on with it. It’s less than an hour from Hull, two-and-a-half hours from Birmingham and – how about this? – take the train from London Kings Cross to Grantham (one-and-a-quarter hours), get picked up by Alex Wiggins-Davies, drive to Revesby 45 minutes away and you could be walking through his woods with the estate’s Sako .243 in under three hours.Revesby started letting deerstalking two years ago, mainly to Dutch people. Now it has a stalker or two through once a fortnight. It has fallow, muntjac and a handful of roe. Alex allows shooting of fallow and any muntjac that’s not a doe with young. However, Alex is not allowing the roe deer shot until he sees them in more numbers.Shirewood is the best place to be. A slow stalk round this 85-acre block of mixed broadleaf and conifer woodland will take you about five hours. The wood is in a sea of arable land where the deer go to bask and browse in the sunlight. The northern end of the wood is mainly broadleaf, including some ancient woodland and it has marshy areas. This attracts the bulk of the fallow population. The conifers to the south are home to the muntjac.Wherever you go in Revesby’s woodlands, you will be struck by the amount of deer traffic. The muntjac have carved paths in the earth which are pattered with their feet. Larger paths have the slots of the fallow. “The muntjac let you get to within 100 yards but then they don’t like it,” says Alex.There are 540 acres of woodland on the estate out of a total of

003.jpg Steve Alexander on Salisbury Plain, 3456 x 2304 Steve Alexander on Salisbury Plain, 3456 x 2304Traditionally in the Army, if it moves you salute it and if it stays still you paint it. Charlie Jacoby finds out what they do with their roe deerUntil I stepped on the mortar bomb, I reckoned I was in a roe stalkers’ paradise. It is a 33,000-acre estate in Wiltshire where hardly anyone goes. Deer are healthy, you will see them regularly as you stalk. The trouble is the high explosives. Happily, this one was a blank. These are the Army ranges on Salisbury Plain.“Don’t touch it,” said Steve Alexander as I bent down to examine it. “That really is the golden rule here,” he continued. “Don’t touch the ordnance.”The bangs don’t drive away the deer. There are hulks of old tanks and troop carriers that the army artillery aims at, so the shelling areas are concentrated. But it is not safe for stalkers to go there except, that is, for the group in Defence Estates charged with managing the deer population on the MoD’s land. They are allowed out during gaps in the shelling.Steve manages the deerstalking on this vast centre of Salisbury Plain. The whole Plain extends to nearly 100,000 acres. Its northern half holds the two Live Impact Areas where the bulk of the deer live. The southern half has the Dry Training Areas and so more disturbance from troop movements.Almost all the deer in the centre are roe. There are occasional muntjac or transit fallow. Muntjac are now creeping in to the western edge of the Plain and both fallow and muntjac are established on the eastern edge.What a wonderful opportunity for officers to enjoy some free jolly old stalking, you might think. But it is not like that. Steve’s job is serious deer management. He enjoys his stalking and he does the job for free but each year he has to come up with a management plan for the Plain based on a census carried out by up to 40 volunteers. He has a pool of stalkers, all qualified to DSC1 or higher, drawn from all ranks of all services and from the MoD Civil
