    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Didn't take the shot as this is the last flemish giant for breeding stock.Lining my hand held camera up to the scope was a task.Bloody neat photo I thought.

    Just gone through the 2015 diary and 268 magpies were put to sleep for ever in 2015. The lowest count since i've been targeting them as traps were used on the felines most of the year around the duck shooting areas.

    Did a rabbit shoot over three afternoons from Boxing day and shot 1,140 between two of us. Lots of young ones about, making up probably 80% of what we shot.

    Well done. That makes @Maca49 look like a light weight. What were you using?

    AR15 for the longer range stuff and 17HMR for the areas out to 150m and no wind, and when I ran out of .223 ammo. Ran into a red hind as well but unfortunately was carrying the HMR at the time
