Good taste in rifles :thumbsup:

(I have one of those in 22LR, but brown stock instead of grey)

Went for a wander to explore a new spot.

Took a bunch of feathers off a magpie today, bit rusty after some enforced time off! Ah well, might get the bugger next time.

Missed a black rabbit today! Very optimistic long shot in the wind, ah well. Got enough regular ones not to bother counting too, great to finally get out after a month of rubbish weather. Liking the...

Go on.... post that photo on here...

Out today for the first time in far too long... got a handful of bunnies and a nice young goat, can't complain.

Had a zombie goat once take 3 or 4 headshots from a 22mag and just stand there bleating. Turned out I had grabbed ammo out of the wrong box, it was shooting an inch to the right and punching straight...

Well my count just went from 26 to 38.


On a not entirely unrelated matter, is it ok to eat pregnant rabbits? Or will they (a)make me sick or (b)taste like crap

2hr stroll with the 22 tonight until the wind and rain got too annoying, 26 bunnies down for me and a similar number for my mate.

Brought 4 home for the pot so I should stop sitting on my ass and...

Tested the Hornady 68bthp from the 223 on a couple of wobblies - hardly any came out to play (spoilsports!) but it produced a decisive bang-flop effect at 135 and 305 on the ones that did cooperate....

Got a possum by automotive means on friday night, only worth mentioning because a mate following me said I cleaned out one end of it and spun it around hard enough that it was still spinning on the...

Well at least there is no doubt about whether it is dead or not!

Whats pepper seasoned?

Nice going. All I got tonight was a few pigeons (2 of them with one shot though!), and a hedgehog which I turned inside out with the 223. Cheap thrills.

Guess you don't have to worry about skinning and gutting! :o

You run them over?

Decent sized hare :)

Should probably claim bonus points for the black bunny too! :D

Out shotgunning from a ute tonight for the first time in years - good fun, 20 rabbits/hares and 2 possums between us.

17 bunnies and a hedgehog for me tonight, nice stroll around a favourite block. Bit less than usual, plenty about but they were quite flighty and heaps of cover at the moment.

Nice shooting :)

Somehow I don't think I've ever actually shot a magpie - I missed a sitter at about 30m with a 22mag once, doh!

Rifle is a Savage American Classic 223, and yep with a nighteater 3-9x42 on top. Pretty good scope for what they cost.

Here is a crappy phone photo of one...

Bastards. :pissed off:

Cops interested or too busy dishing out speeding tickets?

Long slow roast and it comes up really nice and tender, if someone told you it was hogget you'd probably believe them.
