Good shooting. I lived in Wimbledon for a couple yrs and hunted all over England. Longest shot ever was just over 200yds with my guide/friend's Sako 270 on a fox and I agree 100% having a 300yd shot there is a poke. Interestingly enough, shot him between the front shoulders, it basically destroyed the rear half of his body and he still drug himself away for over 60yds. On the flip side, watched a neighbor's big Persian cat chase a fox all over the parking area of our flat one night - musta been 20-30mins of chase then rest. The noises they made were right out of a Stephen King film.

We are allowed Firearms but the laws are strict, First your doctor has to a Medical forn to say you have no problems and your not on certain tablets thats £140, If i was to shout at another Motorist as you do sometimes that could be your license gone because i was aggressive, (very strict) Hey

You mean like yesterday. I heard somebody honking their horn in the street infront of me. She had both hands giving him the number "1" sign. Needless to say, I don't think she was to happy. 😁🤣. It's a good thing they don' t have that law here. In Montana we can carry a pistol with clips in the firearm as long as nothing in the chamber. No permits required. More and more states are changing to that. Allow to carry and no permits needed.
Nice Fox!!!

You have no chance of a pistol over here, I would love just a .22 for dispatching wounded foxs, I shoot over a 100 every year so i do get a number that i need to dispatch You stay safe and happy hunting
 
Good shooting ! Here in Michigan I've trapped and shot 1000's of foxes never have harvested one that had such a dark belly very diffrent !
I have them quite often, but not quite as colourful as this one, I had one once that was all white under its head and on the insides of all legs and the underneath of the tail, so if i turned him upside down like the dark one, you would think it was a white fox, the only one i ever had like that
