    Gibo smack this bugger on the run at 290 something meters

    Attachment 31292
    Then he smacked this one at what I guess is 300m while running. Only know the range because in the video my brother had the range finder and gibo shot at the last one as it just stood behind the second one he shot and he called out 302m!

    Bloody good shooting

    And this one which fell down rolled down the hill landed on its legs walked back up a tiny bit and then kind of just sat there, can't have lived too much longer I don't think.

    Attachment 31294
    Gibo smashed a few over on that face, can't remember the range but it would have been pushing 400m if not more
    Talking me up a bit there mate but I have to agree that 308 is a little beauty
    @257weatherby thanks for the rifle

    Factory looked good enough for me.
    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!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
