dunganick Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Finally managed to escape all the revision and room tidying, had a day out on my own. end result was 11 rabbits, 1 crow, 1 magpie, 1 squirrel, unfortuantly on request of the farmer i was taking the young bunnys, so only 6 of them were worth keeping, of which only 5 are pictured, the lil uns were given to a chap on the farm for his ferrets. Had a nice day out, couldnt have asked for a nicer day, only needed a jumper right at the start of the day, T shirt the rest of the time. Also managed to try out the new to me semi auto, and got the crow, squirrel and magpie with it. going to go back and lamp this farm next week as the place is crawling with bunnies. also a picture out of my window of the crows going home to roost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stupidsalmon Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 hard work lugging those two around?? what calibre is the rifle in? happy shooting mate, SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 its a .22lr, didnt carry the two together, just took seperate trips with them. blackthorn, its sad having to take such innocent and stupid creatures, but they will cause just as much damage in a few months time when i might not be able to shoot them becuase of livestock movement or them wising up. Such is life still, all of them taken with head shots standing with sticks, although the wind was playing havok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
