Sorry meant BLOODY.
One of my neighbours just put an end to my back yard plinking.
He hasn't called the police as far as I know, but he claims one of my pellets hit the front of the next door's shed and then fell into his garden. Yes two gardens away! This is of cause complete boll**s because it would have had to rebound from the target then rebound off my house then hit the shed next door which is completely and totally bolloc**.
However, you and I know this sort of think cannot be defended as I have no proof that this could not happen. So, I'm fooked for somewhere to shoot now.

Yes! It is but you know what the old bill will say.
They will advise me to stop shooting in my garden. That will completely fook me up for somewhere to shoot because, unlike most of you on here, I am disabled and shooting is the only sport I have that I can physically compete in.
I cannot go hunting because I have trouble walking let alone stalking.
You got any pictures of your garden or anything? Just so we can visualize the situation a bit better?
If he hasn’t called the police yet, then you should go yourself and explain the whole episode, if you’re shooting legally you shouldn’t have anything to worry about (allegedly) if you’ve got any permission slips, a gun club membership card or insurance and a photo of your target set up and backstops etc then take them with you to show your not a fly by night irresponsible airgun owner/shooter
And a one off accidental rebound IMO shouldn’t count as shooting over someone’s boundary, unless he goes to the police first and says different

Yes! Here you go. He claims it hit my target at 20 mts. The rust and yellow one on the right of the greenhouse. Rebounded and hit the FRONT (the side facing the house next door) of the shed in the second picture 15mts away. and then landed in a load of nettles in his garden. So, I would not be able to find it even if it was possible.
I know his explanation is bollo**s but what can I do about it? I said to him "I don't see how that is possible" and he just said, "Anything is possible". What a dic*.
just carry on shooting, you say you cant shoot else where so you dont have much to loose. i personally wouldnt shoot in that garden but in your circumstances i appreciate its all you have.
How does he even know your plinking? Is he a dick when it comes to other stuff? Have you had trouble with him in the past?
I guess he heard the gun? I don't have a silencer! He is a dick yes and others in the street have had problems with him. I have not had any problems with any other adult in the street but the kids on the street need a good kick up the as*.
i too dont think your garden looks that sercure (safe)to be shooting in and maybe that's your neighbours way of telling you,
i think if you want to continue to shooting in your garden hassle free you got to have fencing that your nieghbours cant see over agood backstop that wont allow pellets to ricochet and target that muffle the sound,
