008.jpg Somerset gamekeeper Nathan Hards, 2304 x 3456ORIGINAL ARTICLEThere is a choppy bit of country on the way from the Rest Of The World to Exmoor. It lies on and around the Brendon Hills. Somerset is blessed with several evocative ranges of hills. Romantic poets loved the Quantocks, the quarry companies love the Mendips, Exeter commuters the Blackdowns but shooters love the Brendons.In the 60 square miles of land bounded by Wellington, Tiverton, Bampton and Wiveliscombe, you will not find many visitors apart from shooters.

However, Nathan now has his work cut out.To do that work, Nathan has been thinking more carefully about his kit and his methods. What he worked out is not good news for rimfire shooters. There is plenty of the kind of quarry here that rimfire aficionados are used to shooting - such as rabbits and crows - but there are better ways to get into this kind of pest. He will use a .22LR but he has found that, in this kind of country, characterised by streams among small but steep hills and patches of woodland on both the tops and the bottoms, the most effective methods are his .222 foxing rifle, traps and his shotgun.Nathan is no stranger to rifle shooting. He used to do most of it walking around the estate. When he saw what he was after, he would take
