9.3mm at 80yds entry side.

I think so Rushy, if you use anything smaller dont the bullets just bounce off.
Yep .17 HMR and .22LR would never work.
Sweet sling
A bit with that rifle when expecting to fire a few shots from the prone position. The 9.3x64 weight 8lbs, with the same or a tad more grunt than a 375 H&H. My Brno 602 375 is 11 lbs. 5 shots 4 rabbits all taken without my teeth falling out or detached retina's.
:omg:This buggar didn’t like his peanut butter

Most will find this distasteful but here it is anyway. The 8mm is vicious as. Shot the mum baby just sat there so shot that too. Would have had a deer too if I didn't run out of ammo I reckon

Should have shot the deer first Toby.
My .303 is a smooth bore :D actually missed the last 2 deer with the pile of shit one was only 30m haha

233gr - 7.9 gr Trail Boss - 935 fps sounds like an air rifle.
Interesting looking weopon.:cool:
Cool thing is now you can actually get air rifles with that sort of grunt!:cool:

3 more after these, 1 refused to fall outta the tree to be plucked.
Good work.
18 despatched in Taupo, before a mis function with my rifle, had a round that fired but the powder didn't ignite, put the projectile just in the rifling, next round wouldnt chamber! Lucky lucky lucky! Got the projectile out, bit of a scare another 10 mm and I would have fired a round thru a blocked barrel! Perish the though!Attachment 30408Attachment 30409Attachment 30410Attachment 30411Attachment 30412
Lot of young ones about
Way to go Maca
Shit is ya scope big enough?:D
My count is 5 hares two plovers on sat hahaha
my wife got a possum last nite with her new hmr but the bugger fell onto the hayshed roof n couldn't retrieve it. F%&ken bastard, waste of fur.
Even a hare can't beat me on the 8mm! Running shot, pretty much as I fired I see a huge cloud of white fur drifting back down to earth

Possum trapper and his mate spent 3 nights in the bush and trapped 2 nights, they caught 42 possums. 1.7kg of furry gold.:cool:
They lads looked liked drowned rats when picked up. And there were more people up the creek with the stream rising fast.
Jeez Maca, that 17 makes a mess!
Just back from the glorious South Island / Alexandra on my twice yearly rabbit snipe.
160 rounds fired through the Howa 1500 in 223, @120 kills - basically 7/10 shots which isn't bad for real world shooting, on hillsides, lumpy ground, wind blowing and prickles in your hands. Loads of babies running around, not many fully grown buggers.

New PB of 350m :thumbsup: with a crosswind, drop of @50cm apparently (although it took 4 shots and the dumb bunny didn't know where the shots were coming from so just hopped around the spot). Rabbit was at 11 o'clock from the barrel in the photo, in the far paddock.
Discovered I preferred Sierra hollow points to soft points, the longer range stuff at 250m was a simple point and click. But then the HP did a lot more damage, more so than VMax and SP - just blew them up basically.
Life is good.
The ar223 scope on my wee browning is proving to be a very handy wee package. 14 kills from 14 shots since putting it on last weekend. 1 fallow spiker, 2 pigs, a cat and 10 hares. All shots within 250m so far tho.
These two hares I shot just an hour ago, 1st was head shot at 140m and the 2nd bolted and stopped at 225m and a shoulder shot brought him down. Great fun!

Sweet shot, even sweeter rig! A-bolt?
