Hi Charlie.
No you can not shoot deer in the UK with a shot gun rifle only 243 min cal . There is a new law that alloweds you to shoot muntjac and chinese water deer with a 22cf 222 -223
22-250-220 swift etc. but not the 22- hornet as it doe's not have enough power eg.
1000 fIds is the law for a 22 cf on these small deer. I used to have 222 BSA but i shot it
out i did like the 222 a nice little round for fox crows ect. Now i use a 223 - 243 . Now
and again i take out my Hawken 45 cal. muzzle loader NOW that is fun. Thanks dave.
