    Wouldn't fancy any shotgun ammo but a slug ( not an option for obvious reasons ) for a clean kill on a fox at 80 yards anyway.

    Try Landers Leisure in Tralee.He usually has a few rounds in stock.

    Why can't you use slugs?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,590 ✭✭✭Tackleberrywho


    Why can't you use slugs?
    • Restricted ammo
    • They are not allowed as a calibre by NPWS on deer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭Deerspotter


    So can you buy them or not?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,590 ✭✭✭Tackleberrywho


    So can you buy them or not?

    You can buy them if you have a restricted shotgun licence

    You can not use them on deer

    Which, slugs or buck shot?

    If you're talking about slugs, yeah you can buy them IF you have the correct license.
