Five minutes before leaving for work and this one had been sitting in the same spot for at least half an hour, didn't even need to go outside shot from the laundry door JW15 and CCI sub
Feels like ages since I went out hare & bunny zapping. Sneaky sneaky tonight, .22LR, up hill, down dale to get onto the hares I could see on the other side of the valley... Most of them shot in the 60-80m kind of range. Got a couple of longer bunnies at 107m and 122m which was cool with the CCI subs.
Really loving the Vortex Diamondback Tactical FFP 4-16x44. It’s been a game changer on this CZ, dials and tracks perfectly, great to be able to use the reticle for quick holds no matter what the magnification. FFP is often seriously underrated I think. Several longish magpies at various ranges in quick succession in the last week, in the Waikato wind, that’s where FFP really comes into its own.

Two rabbits with one bullet...
... I ran the other one over in the car on the way home :thumbsup:
We've been sitting watching my daughters dance show for 2.5 hours this arvo, my wife and daughter had to head back at 6pm for the 2nd show so me and the young fella hit the berry orchard to shoot some pests.
Knocked over a few pest birds and rabbits, and gave Archie a lesson on Anatomy 101.

Off the front porch about 7am this morning, first time I have shot something from a standing position with no rest. Was around 40m away, missed with first shot. It ran to edge of long grass and stopped, clearly heard the thud as the shot hit home .22LR CCI sub
First goat shoot for about 8 months. Managed a couple of nice eaters for the wood BBQ.

Thought it may have been crossed with a giraffe.....
Good outing close to Christchurch last night with gadgetman in attendance plus couple of mates. Cross winds an issue for the 22WMR - and the 223 to some extent - but still popped 26 in about 2.5 hours. Mostly hares. Gadget did well with 223.
Getting to know this Marlin stainless heavy barrel 22WMR - certainly lives up to its reputation as a hard hitting little rimfire. Extremely accurate off the bench - down to 0.3" groups at 50m and even a tad less. An interesting caliber experiment..

It's been awhile since posting, not that I've been inactive! but it's almost a every day occurrence to do some pest work.
I thought I would put a post up before the year ends.
The pictures are few of the last few weeks.
Stay safe over the wally season and two important things! I D target and rule 5.

Nice spotting Micky Duck an eye for detail:), You can come shooting with me anytime as spotter:D. it is a iver johnson but in 410 I've just retired it. I cut 4 or 8 inches off it opened it for 3" which put it back to its distance again. Replaced it with a cheap $220.00, five chokes, Italian made Plastic Fantastic. Its the black one in the picture.
Old school rifle again today
Grass is so long only the ears show
But a close miss usually gets the head up a bit and then they are in real trouble

Got a few of these critters (7), all of them less than 60m, shotgun would have been better but not allowed
Attachment 157210
These 3 looked a bit tired so they got a ride, I finally managed to get $75 JW15 to shoot
Attachment 157211
This one was on a property we didnt have permission to shoot on so lived, got out of the car to take a picture and it just turned around and started eating, was only 5m from the road

Trying out a IR laser illuminator with the NV scope, on a challenging property. Proper rabbit hunting, as opposed to rabbit shooting as seen on other properties which are over run with the critters.
