This feker was nesting in da garage
what does your garage look like after the shotgun renovation?
It flew out first
Another small Victory - I have been putting them out without covers - six in a row down the boundary had been tripped - a bit of rat fur and nothing else - I reckon a hawk is flying my trap lines - they certainly fly over the A24s

Went to the outlaws for tea tonight took the 22 to sight in and came home with 2 Hares and 8 Rabbits whacked to more Rabbits but they scrambled into a pile of firewood.

some of the longer shots this evening with my son using Sako Quads - 192yds with .17HMR to my 168yds using CCI Subsonics - All Good
Attachment 58216
220yds this evening for the .17 & 231yds for the CCI Subsonics, considering the 8-10mph wind not to shabby.
Shot my first Turkey in about 20 years last night. It was a weird one - it had a mutant clump of feathers/hair growing from mole-like lump on it's chest. You can see it in the photos - it was the thickness of a yard broom. Took the legs and breast meat to see if there's any truth to the rumour that Turkeys taste like crap at this time of year.

Exit wound. 10 centermeater finsh shot

longest hits with .22 CCI Subsonics this evening 310 & 340yds . . near perfect conditions
I imagine at that distance the rabbits wouldn't hear the shots so you could keep plinking away until you had them all?
i put a incline value of 5 degrees into the Strelok firing solution.
running a combination of 25MOA canted rail . . Burris XTR 34mm rings with 25MOA of inserts,
Seiner Military 34mm FFP mil/mil scope with 10.0mils per turn X 2 revs
bullet flight time is 1.25 seconds with a vertical drop of 212 inches or 7.6 feet,
dialed 17.6mils and held 1/2 a body length for the slight breeze . . . good solid hits, back flips, run around in circles, fallover . . . happy camper

Thats some nice kit to be putting on top of a .22LR. Clearly it's working for you :thumbsup:
HA HA Good shit. That's gold and bloody interesting.
We have been shooting quite regularly at 200 with cci subs.
The smallest puff/shift throws her out a fair bit.😆
I have taken a rabbit at 311 with a supersonic round but have not been game enough to try a sub at those ranges.

i hear that a lot . . . i never really intended to spend as much as i did . . the plan was to get a Quad RANGE, get some experience at longrange wind reading out to 300yds and later sell it and put the money into a dedicated centerfire LR rig.
trouble is i am great at buying guns but crap at selling them . . . plan B is put the scope/rings onto a dedicated 30cal subsonic LR setup later on

Cheeking the doc 200s. Found 3 alive kittens but hard to shoot them but I am only 14. All my friends were probably playing on there Xboxes while i was doing this
I feel sorry for a kitten when it is in a cage - but then I think about how to get the rest of them cause they have just been through a big learning experience - might get another one but they usually shift to new territory and come back grown up and very wise
You are doing some great work FatLabrador - a real credit to you
There should be a bounty on cats;) I've paid it before, just to get the young blokes into doing the right thing:thumbsup:
My catkilling has slow down, but it took some time out:D

Hog Friday
Last time he shits all over my lawn and trashes quail nests round here - saw a couple yesterday and said to them - keep running - not safe here too many cats and hogs

Took this lot at 50m, pop them all before they knew they were being shot at.:pacman:
i wouldn't use the word ULTRA . . . what i will say is its consistently around 1MOA at 100yds at the range in this rifle in good conditions - it will hold that 1MOA out to +2-300yds if a few things are taken into consideration
1. the wind
2. the wind
3. the wind
4. good gear and the right attitude
in the field bring your A game with the lessons learned at the range
On Monday I shot a Black bird at 91 yards with my new 22. Very proud of that :D:D:D
Cut the back straps and back legs off @Seans last hare he shot.

Hare nuggets will be the back straps and legs will be slow cooked in crock pot.
Hell hound decided that the possum on the driveway need to be shut the f*** up at about 11pm, so out comes the 22 mag.
Probably should of shot it from somewhere other than down wind as I got a nice red shower on impact :oh noes:
He's only little @Rushy and that 'magnum' has some recoil...lol
Specially when you've only got flippers!:O_O:
I did shoot them all thought about all the pheasant that used to be there and all the duckling. Then it was pretty easy pop n thow em into blackberry.
my sons weapon of choice this evenin for the in close shooting . . . Attachment 58473

Attachment 58474
