Just to throw something into the mix, I read years ago that the most ranges/gunclubs are in Yorkshire, with the rest of the Northern counties having a fair few as well. Land is at a premium in the South....

Definitely not slow in my experience. Last variation took less than two weeks, which I was happy with.

Anyone have experience of the above?
Going back to holdings - what's Hants' typical allowance?

I've heard quite a few positive reports about Hampshire lately, last year they were attrocious with 1:1 variations taking months. But - it now seems that they have really sorted it out. Just shows it can be done.

Can anyone recommend a decent, broad-minded RFD in Hants or West Sussex who I can transfer my stuff to?
One who won't have an AR-related seizure...
