Knocked over 13 roos between a few of us on Friday. I claimed the longest 2 kills at 425y and 587y. Not bad for the wee 223, very happy with how it's shaping up!
get some footage mate go the wee call's
One wabbit for me boys are just walking up drive dunno how they got on
Camera = one more thing to carry. :oh noes::yuush: Maybe one day..
Definitely enjoying the 223 though. Don't think I'll be pushing it past 600 on light game like roos, but if I can get pretty consistent out to that point, I'll be happy.
Cheers Rushy, all the practice and theory is starting to pay off.
Here is a crappy phone photo of one...

Attachment 6358 hi got this hind when out rabbit shooting(240yds hornaby practise ammo original projectile replaced with nosler 55gn ballistic. Tip)ps hope photo goes thru not good at computers etc
It would appear that you are good enough with computers Bernie. Great photo
Thanks mite have ago sending a few more (trying to transfer from laptop to ipad)
Nice one Bernie. 240m is a decent shot. My freezer is bloody empty at the moment. I wish a big red like that would jump out in front of me when I was hunting rabbits.
Not much chance of that on dairy farms in Pukekohe/Karaka though :D
Thanks it was 230yds typed wrong,I'm lucky to have this place,my mate owns the property big sheep farm, saw 2 reds earlier that hunt did not think to see a3rd, got to get lucky sometimes

Came down the track and hare was gone but possom trapper nailed a maggie

Somehow I don't think I've ever actually shot a magpie - I missed a sitter at about 30m with a 22mag once, doh!
