Shot a rabbit at 123 yds, my longest to date. Went on to have another two at 89 and 85 yds, all with the hmr on cut silage fields.
Later, was talking to the farmer and his son in a different field that had been grazed so had sparse length grass. As a beef farm crows can be a problem, so when one landed about 60 yds away the opportunity was taken, after all how could I miss after my previous rabbits.
Instead of impressing the farmer I just embarrassed myself. Shot taken, it was still very much alive and running like a whippet. I went to dispatch it and found a wound mark on the wing bone after a side on shot.
SO, did the bullet have a glancing impact or possibly hit an obstruction grass, or what happened ?
