Ahhh finally got something worth showing. Still meant to be off my leg but went for a 3km walk to the railway bridge this morning which was fine also saw a seal in the river. (thats 16km up the river) so that was new. anyway the important part I asked dad if he could take me to shoot a goat he said yes so yeah I shot a goat. had the bow and tried to get my brother one but ended up sitting at a spot where we couldnt get any closer so I just shot one. Fat little bugger.

nice one toby ..

tell us a bit about your rifle
Well. Its a .22lr. Marlin 25N pretty accurate I have shot out to 270m with it and thats about it really. Once all the camo wears off I'll give it a few years I'm going to clean up the stock take off the scope put it back into open sights and give it a re blue.
I've finally blooded the 223. I've been a real slacker about getting my 223 into a state where I can hunt with it, but it's finally suppressed and ready to go so I took it out last night.
I missed about 3 or 4 shots with it last night so I'd started to worry it had had a knock or something (jumping a fence) and you guys know what it's like once you start doubting a rifle. Your shooting turns to crap. I was shooting eggs and targets with it last weekend so maybe I'm just a shit shot with it :P
But I got a hare and a rabbit.

This guy was a real big bastard. His head was getting close to the size of a cats.

You just need more time behind the eye piece RimfireNZ.
Yeah it's a bit of an adjustment. It's a bigger rifle than my HMR and it's even bigger than my model 700 7mm08. The bit I struggled with the most is getting behind the high mag scope. I'm really starting to think a decent Leupold 4-12 would be a far better varmint scope than the Weaver Grand Slam 6-20. I'm relatively unimpressed with it. It's better than the 6-24 bushnell I had... but that wasn't hard to beat
Are all high magnification scopes shithouse or am I just not in the right price bracket yet ($500USD shipped or $1000NZD over here)? I'm thinking I would have been better off getting a VX3 4-14 or whatever they are.
Every single one I use (ie 6+ to 20+) cuts out a lot of your peripheral vision, they're hard to get behind and they always get washed out at high magnification.
I have only had brief experience of a real quality high power scope a couple of times and have to admit I struggled getting good eye relief on both occasions. To be fair they were on other peoples rifles so I was probably more of the problem than the scopes.
I got a wild cat in the live capture trap I set for a possom.
curioustiy must have got the better of him, all that was in there was an apple
I tryed my new suppressor out on it, its fertilizer now next to the possom I got on friday night
biggest possom iv shot in months took 6 22subs to finally make it hang by its tail.
I think I need to sight my 22 in for closer than it currently is
yea if you use 100s they have allmost all their teeth
You never really needed to spend thousands, but if you let her get a peep (cos they always look ;)) in your wallet when you buy her a drink your home and hosed literally.
