  1. Morning

    Haven't been out for a little while with my Diana 52/48 so i thought i would give it a go with the nite site ns5o, had to re zero my scope then i popped the ns50 and had a few shots at my target paper, great grouping smile.png

    So had a walk with my shooting sticks and my Diana smile.png Seen 6 rabbits all night and managed to get into a good shooting distance and position on 4 of them smile.png

  2. Out again on to one of my golf course permissions as the head green keeper had phoned monday saying that course was having a few damaged greens and could I deal with theses as a matter of urgency. So once I finished work at 2am I headed over to the golf course. Set up my rifle with nite site. Checked zero and back into motor, I hadn't even turned onto the service road when I seen two rabbits sitting sheltering from the wind under some bushes. Got in position cross hair put on the first rabbit squeeze the trigger pellet hit with a solid thud rabbit jumped to the left, dead before it hit the ground. Second rabbit didnt know what happened and ran towards me, once it stopped I sent a pellet towards it striking it just behind the eye, had a scan to see if any more were about nope so got out and picked the two up :) always good to get a rabbit or two early so You know that your not going home empty handed.

     

    I drove over to the problem area and got my new buffalo river ahooting mat/gun slip and got all set up. Took 4 in about 50mins picked them up and headed to the last area where I see rabbits grazing. This is where I managed to finally take out the black rabbit I had missed a chance at due to me pressing the horn of the motor while trying to get in a shooting position. 35 yard head shot. Managed to films the nights shooting so will gwt a video up asap.

     

    Thanks for reading

  3. Your scope looks way high above the barrel Stuart-any reason why you use such high mounts?

     

    They came with the scope and I have ordered 30mm low mounts

    very first thing I thought,

     

    stuart noticed someone question the photograph ? might be because the gun in the pic is not in your signature mate,

     

    great photo by the way bud
