Aah right. I suppose if I were to go for .243 in the first instance, that would cover pretty much all eventualities.

Lol I haven't got the head for reloading geekery I don't think... too fuzzy!

Have to say, i'm being very calm with this variation. In the past, I couldn't wait for things to get started! Must be the onset of middle age!

Jesus matey, you went through that a bit quick didn't ya? :grin: Very lean meat though I suppose... Can't we form a cottage industry here, supplying venison sausages to fellow forum members for a nominal fee? Might help pay for more shooting! Or is that against some kind of health and safety directive pish?

Lol thre is still plenty in the freezer but the doe season is nearing an end. The bucks cost more and dont taste any better :lol: so I'd like to get one more in.
they make SUPERB stew and pies as well as steaks and roasts...

Selling on Venison unless you area a venison dealer is naughty.
You are only allowed to sell to a venison dealer if you are 'registered' with teh large game handling qual. i.e. DSC1 or similar so selling saussies would be a nono :turd: rules :turd:
