bullet boy Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Elvis Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 As Bill said , .22lr round in high velocity, apparrently Roos eyes are very large and lamp up well, head shot with a .22hv all thats is required. The pig shooters who use .22hv have thier own magazine for it, would have thought it was well under powered but there a soft spot that they aim for within 50yards....bloody nutters!!!

dogfox Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 What calibre did you use,. my friend uses .243 but there are those out there that will take down a roo with .22hv headshots, theres even a club that uses.22hv for pig shooting!!! People under-estimate the .22, Especially HVs. These have more than enough energy to take out a pig or a roo at 50 yards if shot in the head. Have seen Dum Dum'd Stingers explode fox heads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a huge bonus to take the rifle aswell I doubt you need permission in a country that you could fit Europe into, but has a population of 21 million. That's quite unbelieveable, seeing as Europe has a population of around 840 million! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
