Hi, im 14 years old and am into small game hunting.I own a few powerful air rifles which my dad supervises me with. We have shot numerous hares and rabbits on private property with the airguns.
We are very responsible small game hunters and have always been in accordance with the law.
Im just wondering if there is anyone kind enough in around the canterbury reigon which would let us go and shoot rabbits, magpies,hares.....etc on your private land.............if you would it would be great if you could let us know. Our phone number is 033429696
We have not had much luck this summer so it would just be great if you would let us shoot some of your rabbits/pests!

Hi Cambo, so far ive just got air rifles,and quite suprisingly ive done quite well with them. Though seriously thinking about getting a 22.
Ive used a 22. lr before and the power is much more significant than an air rifles ,so i reckon it would be great to have for the longer range shots, as the air guns are mostly used to take game from shorter ranges of about 25 to 70 metres.
