Cool. Well done
Thats a couple of serious headaches john m:thumbsup:
I did want to eat them!But the tan girl had a real ugly liver so shes dog tucker the black was prime lots of fat even with these current conditions.
The damage from that .222 rem is crazy good shooting.
Nice shooting on those DOE's :thumbsup:
The "black" one is a melanistic color phase and the "tan" one is either menil or common color phase but looks like a common.
got a shot of hind quarters and tail?
Did you keep the skin?
They come up nice as a wall hanging;)

Yea managed two long shots and got two in trap. The long shot with pics I measured on quad at 200metres:)
I love the way Plovers roll over and cross their little legs:yarr:
Yup. Hit the other one but kept flying need to stop using solids haha.
Good stuff Toby ,I just done the maths on the magpies.Since I have set the trap on the 6/2/13 I have killed 40 not all from the trap some were snipered others shotgunned elsewhere but its a great method to keep these pests down.

How To Build A Larsen Trap -The Hunting Life
thats no good Eeebees,that one looks pretty flash
I've just got back from a hunt since the early afternoon. Between my brother and I we got a half dozen possums, couple of bunnies, couple of hares and I nailed a turkey with the 17HMR.
I know normally you're supposed to use a shotty for turkeys but after missing a headshot (and having the bird fly into a tree) I thought stuff it and aimed right under his shoulder (I had my brother backing me up in case the rifle didn't do the trick). It absolutely did though. It bowled it out of the tree, stone cold dead. Based on what I saw the HMR has plenty of grunt for a body shot on a turkey (granted it was at like, 50 meters).

I was really excited about having some turkey... but then I read that the rule of thumb is don't eat them any month that has an R in it, as they eat a load of crickets and it taints the meat. Had I known that earlier I would have left it alone. Bit late now.
Another example of why the HMR is not to be scoffed at. This is what's left of a possums head after I hit him between the eyes.

And this was the bigger of the hares I got tonight.

Decent sized hare :)
Well done Rimfire. That was quite a mixed bag.
I get plenty of turkeys with the sub 22 when they get into large numbers around where they shouldn't.
you are spot on with your shooting, Iv found where there neck starts to get thick is where you aim
it breaks the neck and dosnet hit the breast meat
turkey lasanga mmmmmmm
Got me 2 rabbits 1 hare and 1 skanky ferral cat tonight in the back end of Cambridge using .22 damn cat wouldn't die even with a round in its head flipping backwards and forwards made the ugliest of sounds became quiet after I emptied my clip.
