Luckyshot Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 Had a look out this morning as the weather was good and the forecast is for rain tonight so my night’s lamping was out the window. I walked along to my usual spot right in front of some rabbit burrows, HMR on bipod I laid in wait for them to come out. I only had to wait a short time before the little ones started to appear so I took a few shots at them each one resulting in a clean head shot, after they flipped and flopped about they ended out back in their holes again (too far down to reach) they just wouldn’t move away from their holes and there are to many about to leave for another day as the farmer is always complaining about the bloody things. After shooting a further 20 rabbits all from this section of burrows I decided to move along to a few more holes this time they were in the middle of a field (300 acre) All of these rabbits were sot at a distance of 150 yards only resulting in one body shot as I clipped it on the nose the first time so a follow up shot was necessary and I didn’t want to hang about as it was keep moving its head so the follow up shot was heart and lung. After picking up these rabbits I ended the morning with 28 dead and 23 recovered, I don’t like leaving shot ones in the field but there was no way of retrieving the ones that fell back down their holes all 5 of them.
