Where you have permission

Read up on the laws first mate before you start running around shooting anything!
And i'm taking for granted you can shoot accurately etc....
i will go and have a drive around in minute,will take my binos and let you know where they are when i get back
ps do you want the black ones has well ?
Look along field boundaries/headlands, particularly where the field adjoins a hedge, wood, copse or overgrown railway embankment/cutting or road (all the usual safety provisos apply!). Rabbits tend to like a combination of habitats so they can move from one to the other. However they thrive in unimproved pasture or links land, particularly where the soil is sandy. Scan through binoculars for excavated soil (I'm guessing Herefordshire isn't sandy) and patches of dead grass. The best time to look for rabbits where they're used to some hunting pressure is dawn/dusk - night with a high powered lamp is even better but I think the landowners might be a little concerned about a stranger wandering around at night with a two million cp spot.
Good deals with: Baz, foxshooter, vbull, leadhead, Gary C/Slim Shady, coddy, rixy, David, Baldie, BoNeS, mjonho, Reeco.
hi craig welcome to the BBS,
could you tell me just how accurate a shot are you, say target at 30yds.
Whats the story on the black bunnies around here (ledbury/hereford/west side of the malverns)....is this a normal strain, or have they bred from escaped pets?......have seen loads in the last 5-6 years
Get them down here as well mate, think its something to do with pet ones escaping/being released and then breeding with the wild ones

I find near a Rabbit Warren a damn fine place to start .
Sorry Craig couldn't resist it .

first off matey practice practice practice practice and then guess what practice more before you even consider to go shooting will live animals .secondly ask around your local farmers etc and get a permission letter wrote up and sent to them and await areply its not as easy as asking on a forum ive been trying to get a permission since august which is when i felt confident in dispatchin an animal out to 30 yards but always try to get closer learn read everyth8ing you can as its not a toy even though some people treat them like they are only an air rifle.dont do that they are more than that.
