Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Europe Wing shooting in Ireland

20 or 12 gauge

Duck, pheasant and Pigeon

Thanks for the info

Don't have any experience with Ireland for wingshooting but my dad went there for Snipe and Woodcock in the 1970's and loved it. However, I have decades of experience in the UK and, IMHO, you'd be far better served in England for what you're wanting. gunsonpegs.com is where I would look if I were to travel back to the UK for wingshooting.

I'd look into what kind of shot they require. If they've banned lead, I'd probably roll with a 12.

When are you planning to go? Last I heard they were under a lockdown with very little if any tourism allowed.

Be prepared to have a darn good time if you make it over there though.
