Watch her hesitate before see says barking dogs deter drones. I think it dawned on her that what she was reading was a crock of shite. I wonder who wrote it for her.

She might have been saying it for a bet.

Full choke and 4 shot . If they are any higher than a goose its a wast of time .

I am sure BB shot would work well. Dangerous at 450 yards according to this https://news.gov.mb.ca/news/archives/1959/10/1959-10-02-shotguns_can_kill_at_a_long_range.pdf

It says no.4 shot is dangerous at about 300 yards.

It says no.4 will go through a telephone directory at 40 yards whereas BB would probably put the telephone directory through the fence behind!

But you would need a calm person only shooting vertically to be safe and the pellets falling from above would be unlikely to hurt anyone.

How much is it for a peg there ? Sounds like a good crack ?

A massive fine followed by a long prison sentence at the moment!

Would like to know if it was seen flying above Buckingham palace would it still be doing it.

Don't think so.

I wonder if anyone thought of following it with another drone with camera ?
I would have hoped that was the first thing they tried.

Less shot in the pattern with BB though .

Not with my five shot Browning semi-auto which also has full choke!

I think the powers that be may have allowed or are still allowing this to go on in order to introduce stricter laws around drone ownership.This will certainly work.

Or, just maybe, she was talking nonsense.
