Tim Pilbeam leaves his comfort zone of fallow and roe stalking in England to pick up Rucksack & Rifle and paddle up a river in Argentina in order to hunt axis deer. It is an extraordinary hunting experience for him, both the tropical landscape and the thick scrub where the animals hide out. Back in the UK, Crow’s been to the toy shop. He has a new stock on his Blaser F16, a new Blaser R8 with two barrel options, a personalised Aimpoint gun sight, new UK Shoot Warehouse pigeon decoys and his new signature Gamebore Clear Pigeon cartridges, plus deer, pigeons and Jon Carrington from Blaser Sporting to help him try them. News leads on the Scottish sport rates story – 16,000 tax demands are about to go out to landowners and sporting rights holders. Hunting YouTube completes an action-packed episode of #FieldsportsBritain
