Thread: How to hunt rabbits?

Interestingly Rabbit hunting is where most of us started and probably where most of us may well finish up

It’s hard to beat a warm afternoon searching familiar surroundings, there’s patience to be learned and a blending in with your surroundings.
Get the most accurate rifle that suits you -and practise at a range to say 80 yards, headshots or chest shots will save the most meat.

Hunting small game is great fun, and the skills you develop transfer over to hunting large game as well.
