Big Norway Rat for the Leshiy this avo. I didn't even see it with bare eyes but it lit up like a Xmas tree on the thermal!

Haha, should have thought of that before the hunt!

Jeez peep sights are useless when you stalk in too close!
Works amazingly in the real world, such a versatile little rifle! In its current configuration any small game out to about 50m is in trouble, if I swap the barrel out and bump the power up that can...
Leshiy out getting busy again tonight, bonus Joey too

It's currently running a .22 barrel at 14fpe, I have the .177 and .25 barrels for it too but it's a real honey for close range stuff the way it is and I have other Pcp's for longer range stuff.

Thats a Pard SA45LRF Thermal, older tech now but it's footprint suits the rifle perfectly and its still doing the job pretty well! Had it out tonight and head shooting Rats at 25m is a breeze!

Just for you mate

Peacocks really know how to be an absolute menace! This mob of 3 cocks and 5 hens stayed on top of the ridge line at 200m with cows behind them for about 45 mins yesterday!

I dont post in this section much because I'm getting small pests every day and you guys would soon get very sick of photos of dead Pukekos, but tonight's kill of a black rabbit is worthy of posting...
Enjoying the Tipmann Ken? Mine is out on daily use these days and it puts up with the abuse without complaining

13 Pukeko eggs in one nest, new PB for me beating my last PB by 1. Interesting thing with this one was 2 nests 50m each side with 5 in each as well so a total of 23 crushed, all along one edge of a...
.22 Hades mate
Nah, I handle them every day and have only heard bad things about the flavor. Apparently the younger birds are ok if cooked right but I'm not really interested in it. Feel free to come grab some one...
3 Pukeko shot yesterday with the Matador using JSB Hades, 25-80m. Yes I have a permit.

Speaking of Paradise ducks.... these 2 were shot with a single .17hmr shot at 100m earlier this week. Yes I have a permit.

I got more enjoyment from the 2240/2250 range as I'm not really a fan of pumping up for each shot. I do love the customization though!
Have built up a couple of those, good fun!
Turns out I wasn't the only hunter out on my clients property last night! I noticed the Cat first and watched it for a min before I saw the 3 Rats climbing in the tree, as the Cat got a bit closer I...
The whistle almost always works on rabbits when done right but when Hares are on the move they usually won't stop until they find a place to hide that they think you haven't seen.
Mixed bag today, 3 Pukeko shot from 3m - 65m, and a large Hare shot at about 12m on the run after I spooked her. All shot within about 5 mins and all were a single shot taken. Perfection!

Nice! Certainly satisfying pest control trolling with airguns!
I have "pet" Hawks on quite a few of the properties I visit. They are so used to me they don't even fly off when I get to about 15m away and throw them a Rabbit or Pukeko for lunch. Awesome birds.
