Looks like you’ve got that Mercator shaped nicely. You may need to start getting a new up to speed in a year or two.

He hunkered and I thought I'd missed. Showed his head as I walked up so there wasn't a left of that intact with the coup de grace. 40gn pill doing around 2600 fps. PPU factory SP. I was using them to benchmark my load development. Completed my ladder test and liked how the rifle was shooting so took it out off the range for the first time since I bought it, with the PPU. Looking forward to going out with handloads now. Has an old Leupold x4 fixed power on it. Nice and clear.

And some photos that I could not get to load with my phone last night...

Took the dog for his nightly empty out before being put away and was dumping a stoat, minus the tail.
Had couple of options in the truck as it turned out! I needed one of them.
Just never know how the walk will turn out some nights.

Wow good effort, was that by accident or were targeting stoats?

Hi kiwiGary
No the stoat was earlier in the day and target it was. But the others just happened in the course of the outting.

I shot a young rabbit twenty metres from my front door this morning. Cheeky bloody thing made a wrong choice coming on to my property. Hawk fodder now.

...apparently this is a shooting and hunting forum so here’s a couple of pics .....

Plover Vs 55grn Vmax....

Might have been a plover.........now it’s just a puffer

Then again maybe it’s just a puffffffffffi

its a good plover now....

Under 50m?

About 100yrds, was quite impressive through the scope

Nice. Had that close range look about it so was guessing sub 50m

Picked off all the dumb ones at sub 50m with the .22, now I’m working my way through the crafty ones that won’t let me get that close...
