Hello all,
Just a few pictures of our yearly week of hunting in Poland.
We go there just to shoot Foxes and Wild Boar.

As you can see we shoot everything with a 12ga shotgun, even boars. With buckshot or with slugs.

A days result.
Here we have to do a lotof digging to get the dogs back and also the foxes they were after.
Just hope you like the pics
Regards René
I am always looking for collectable shotshells, have all required permits and would be very happy to get a PM when you can help me.
Many thanks René

Hello to all,
Thanks for the replies,
First of all I come from the Netherlands and I Go hunting in Poland once a year. We usualy shoot foxes over there but we are also permitted to shoot wild boar.
On driven shoots like this we usualy have our O/U shotgun loaded with either buckshot (9 or 12 pellets) or with slugs.
For foxes we use smaller shotsize( about 4mm ).
Sometimes we use rifles but this is mostley at nighttime and use a scope aswell.
You will be surprised which kind of dogs we use, It is a small german breed which is used for boars and foxes. They are fearless and though.
I must look for a good picture, because I lost a lot of them lately.
Regards René
