Mainly vermin (for food), some target shooting and generally enjoying being outside (especially in summer). I also like being a member of a club as it's great to go down on a Sunday morning to have a bit of a shoot and also a natter. Good times :)

I use my S410's Classic n carbine, for pest control, I was working full time on landfill sites airports etc. I mainly shoot rabbits n squirrels now for food for my hawks n Falcons. I just love getting out with my rifles. I've just purchased a NS200. So I'm planning my next trip, :) to try it out.

Original reason was rats from the woods into the garden, living under the decking and snaffling the bird food, that took me down the practice route, so the plinking and paper targets and tonic bottle tops

Add in I fell in love with a 510 Anniversary edition which become my first .. which probably means I will need to get a superlite 510 as that Anniversary is so good to look at to use all the time

Owning 5 rifles and 4 pistols, I mainly target shoot, have a competitive indoor league I shoot at and greatly enjoy.
Have used a couple guns for pest control.
I love the older pellet guns to hunt with when I get the chance.
Never met a gun I didn't like.
