    Haha sure looks like it, the 62grainer made mince of its leg bone and it hapened to fold under when i lay the hare down @charliehorse

    Christmas Pie landed by my 100yard target. So out with the air rifle PCP .22 chest shot 91yards.

    Christmas special and seasonal greetings from KH

    It's been awhile since posting, not that I've been inactive! but it's almost a every day occurrence to do some pest work.
    I thought I would put a post up before the year ends.
    The pictures are few of the last few weeks.
    Stay safe over the wally season and two important things! I D target and rule 5.

    Nice spotting Micky Duck an eye for detail, You can come shooting with me anytime as spotter. it is a iver johnson but in 410 I've just retired it. I cut 4 or 8 inches off it opened it for 3" which put it back to its distance again. Replaced it with a cheap $220.00, five chokes, Italian made Plastic Fantastic. Its the black one in the picture.

    Old school rifle again today
    Grass is so long only the ears show
    But a close miss usually gets the head up a bit and then they are in real trouble

    Got a few of these critters (7), all of them less than 60m, shotgun would have been better but not allowed

    Trying out a IR laser illuminator with the NV scope, on a challenging property. Proper rabbit hunting, as opposed to rabbit shooting as seen on other properties which are over run with the critters.

    Shit I got a fright when I first saw that until I saw it is from Sweden - Crows / Ravens / Rooks are supposed to be eradicated from NZ. Lovely shotty, does it lock on a cross bolt ?
