    Roast rabbit is pretty good. I tried to fry the lastest ones in butter but I think I had the pan too hot.
    The next one I shoot I'll try frying the legs again and roast the rest.

    I took out another bunny today. Will add photo's later.

    My sweet little spot too spy on the bunnies, much nicer than the garden I sat in yesterday.
    Feel bad shooting the baby ones, but they all need to go. Not the easiest thing to shoot when they are that small.

    When I cook rabbit I do it in the slow cooker and add a generous amount of herbs and spices. Keep it in an inch of water and a few hours later it its amazing

    Well done.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I'm jealous of that. Love to be able to make money of the bunnies to feed my habit of buying toys, that I may or may not need.

    We looked into that when we were shooting big numbers but the set up costs were too high and it would have changed a great hobby into work. Now just take a few for the pot.

    A shame as the 9 he has there is easily enough for another box of 17hmr ammo. With 7 he would have enough and then two for himself. lucky shooting them is so much fun.
