The farm is about 200 acres , its not surrounded by houses but I still will have to be careful. It has a river running down the back and quite a few tree lines which rabbits like to hang out at. I just will just have to check my firing zone and be super careful.
    Get it suppressed. I’ve done my HMR and haven’t looked back.

    @Dicko, as Wingman said, it's a 22-250. Bergara b14 HMR. Vortex Viper on the top. Perfect for picking off those longer range magpies, usually would use the .17 Hornet @Marty Henry but have been keen to try my reloads. Justify all the time out in the shed and on the interweb. Have 3 smaller calibres but these 2 are my go to guns at the moment

    And have a demand now for the headskins for the flyfishos to use for tying flies.
    So took the back legs and straps off for us to eat.

    The dog and eels had the rest after I head skinned the head.

    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
