Browning B25 D5G Sideplate Pair Arrive in Stock !

The gunroom at Bywell has just taken delivery of a magnificent pair of 12 gauge game guns. The D5G sideplates from Browning in Belgium are true pieces of craftsmanship. This particular pair has been in production for 3 years with a team of expertise behind them. The actions have seen very delicate hand work in each gun to produce a completely hand engraved action depicting a fine scroll over the whole body of the action from top lever to the trigger guard. To further compliment the actions the stocks feature a high gloss finish over the top of deep figured European walnut. They match very well with dark grain running through both stocks. They also come complete in a double leather case to really set aside this Browning excellence.

Rifle Nights .... Part 1

Vermin control is an important part of countryside land management. The humble Fox is a deadly and cunning predator, for many breeds of wild game. Indeed, to successfully rear game birds it is crucial to control fox numbers. On our own farm I like to think, we have helped increase the numbers of wild game birds by controlling the number of foxes and the most efficient way is night time rifle shooting.

Glorious Grouse

Working in the gunroom for many years I have heard lots of customers stories of great days shooting and each individuals favourite quarry. The customers who have shot driven grouse seem to rate it the highest over all other forms of game shooting, which until recently I had never experienced myself. In September I was kindly asked on a days driven Grouse shooting as a guest of Hull Cartridge Company: this was one day I was definitely going to remember.
