Get in amongst them with a 22 Dundee.
Well I got a cat with my 280, at about 10m with a 162 amax it wasnt a pretty pussy afterwards,
It was one very sore pussy Rushy
Shot a cat up the arse about an 2 hours ago as it ran away with a Tui in its mouth, cats turn inside out when hit up the arse with a .45 colt and the Tui flew away unharmed and has since returned for a feed ...bloody awesome
the rabbit I just saw getting towed across the road by a stoat wasnt so lucky. might be time to set a trap for the little bugger
Double in the magpie trap this morning.
This big balled bouncer fell victim to the Navara 450's mud grippers this morning, and promptly got mounted via cable tie to a colleagues bull bar... or in this case "Roo bar".

Unfortunately our cunning plan was foiled before he made his journey from Manawahe to Papamoa:oh noes:
Why is his willy out @big_foot?
26 Wallabies tonight for Mattdw and I. Very happy with that haul. 10 with daylight and the rest under the torches.
Managed a terrible cellphone snap through the binoculars for you and will try to get a shot through the scope next time, as it came up a bit better. Pity there was no roo in the scope shot though, was just for scenery interest!

Well done StrikerNZ
Wouldn't be without them. :)
On my old scope when I was using the ballistic reticle, I had the drop chart (my profile pic) cut out and stuck to the inside of the eyepiece cap, so anytime you were setup somewhere and had a range on game you just had to lift your eyes for a second to see your BDC reference right there.
Woohoo! The 45-70 finally got to draw it's first blood after a year of shooting cans and targets.

Bullets are Lee TL452-230TCs paper patched up to .457, made from old leadhead nails and 14gn Trailboss.
All the shagging about is not very practical but quite satisfying when it comes together.
Short evening hunt tonight resulted in 3 young bunnies and a hare. :)

Excellent
Took PT out early this evening the bugger missed 2 hares but did nab a wabbit:)
I nailed the rabbit that was digging holes in my lawn, dog heard the shot and got to it before i did. Im pleased none the less.
Well done
Last night I took a South African fella and a mate of mine out for a last minute deer stalk. Boys had been away on a 3 day mission, only seeing a couple of deer, so called me on their way home to see if I could take them on a evening hunt. They arrived at home about 7-ish, straight in the truck and to a spot of mine and after stalking a couple of deer for about half an hour Mr S.A shot his first deer, and I fluked a long shot on a spiker with my 223. Then we went for a quick lighting session and shot about 15-20 hares with the 223 in less than an hour. Really really windy and warm which had all the hares out feeding, and they held well in the light too. Mr S.A was stoked. Bugger could shoot too!
Way to go JoshC
Woohoo! Got out for the first spring rabbit hunt for the year. There has been a major explosion in numbers too. Unfortunately the rabbits seem to have been congregating when a suicide bomber rabbit wandered in and detonated as after six hours of driving and quadding around I ended up on a total of six rabbits with a similar number seen but not able to get into shooting range.
The bike went well, heaps of grunt, brilliant engine breaking on the steep down hills. Time to do the manual fan switch mod though as I didn't notice the fan spin at any stage. Did manage to get it stuck in some deep mud at one point but managed to extract it myself. Might put a box on the bike with the fence wire strainer with some rope. :oh noes:
Went for a small walk this morning managed to zip two rosellas with one shot, decided to give the wounded one a love tap on the noggin. Bastard ended up breaking my stock, bit of no more nails and the ghetto blaster will be back to its former glory.
