No bother guys, am a sheep farmer so foxes are high on my target list around lambing time. That's usually a night time job, have a Led Lenser light mounted on the scope of the Tikka.
Grey (hooded) crows and magpie I would hit all year round, due to their charming habit of picking the eyes out of any ewe or lamb that's in trouble.
Usually have the Mossey 500 in the jeep or tractor for this purpose.
Broods of young magpies are dispersing at this time of year, and aren't just as "smart" as adults yet, so make mistakes and come into range
Most Gun Clubs here have vermin competitions, with prizes for those who shoot the most greycrows, mags etc.
(In Ireland a Gun Club is in 99% of cases a club of folk who shoot game birds. Most raise and release pheasants and ducks etc also)
