Good job Happy. I'm still trying to get the little bastards in my roller door at the shed,got 3 but more keep arriving.
@Happy
What scope do you have on that .17?
Vx1 3 x 9 x 40. Guns had a lot of time and $ spent on it over time. Id like a bigger scope as next mod but it's solid and accurate now .
They are worth putting good bits on. It loves being shot with the bi pod loaded up leaning forward @nz_hunter
I'm looking at upgrading my Simmons 3-9 x 38 on my .22magnum. I don't know a whole lot a bout scopes, trying to get advice off other people with past experience.
I've also got a bipod on my gun, so nice to snipe bunnies on. With that being said, I've only been able to get a bunnie at 90m for my longest shot(and kill). @Happy
I haven't had much experience with 22 mag. I wear glasses so lneed good light and good magnification . Just shoot it as often as you can for a while. Your scope would be as good as mine I reckon.
The gun will let you know . Time behind it is the best thing. If you don't improve change something then or borrow a gun .
I've had it for over 4 years now, I would consider myself to be pretty damn accurate with it. I don't miss much, its just the long shots are bit difficult, the zoom isn't great nor is the quality of the actual lens in the scope. The scope came with the rifle, but its price tag was only $119. So I can't imagine it's that great.
Isn't your scope a Leopould?
head shot 3 rabbits last night, bastards were digging up my lawn. 2 for the pot, and one pregnant so not for the pot.
Its a bit of a laugh for me, I have a ungrounded hatred for rugers from what Iv seen in the past and even tho they are handy as, light and mine is particularly accurate and has a nice trigger, I still dont "like" it how I do with my brno that I dont even use anymore
Two bunnies last night, three this morning. Two with the air rifle, but the others with the shot gun. They're learning now that whenever they see a movement through a window in the house its "hide time".
So now if I spot one outside while watching tv/in office/going to bed/etc I have to crawl underneath the windows sneak out the door and ambush them. Shotgun obviously works well for this type of spook and shoot scenario.
Missus thinks I'm crazy, sneaking round the house in my gruts cradling a shotgun or rifle...although this morning I caught her sneaking out the back door with the air rifle in her PJ's! :D
Ha !! Same here .. you soon learn all the ways to sneak unseen around your own house ..
God forbid someone sees you .. you'd probably end up with your house being surrounded by the boys in the black gear .
Classic technique JoshC
Funny you should say that, just as I was about to poke the barrel out the sliding door last night I saw a cop coming down the road so delayed for a few more seconds! Haha.
Thankfully down here, most people are used to seeing firearms around, so aren't too bothered about to someone walking about in a paddock with a rifle/shotgun. We're not overrun by people who don't understand country life yet.
