Frank Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 The cull goes on, am getting exusted as it is coming to an end. Most are culled now, i got 11 this morning, some pics of a few below. The surounding farmers are very happy, so thay should be :yp: A great morning for a change, as its been raining of late. The CZ .223 of mine, sure is getting used well, what a work tool . Fast feeding, fireing and ejecting like a constant work horse. :yp: One thig that made me cringe this moprning a bit, was when i was crawling under a barbed wire fence and couaght the stock with the wire and scractched it a bit . Seems a surfice scratch, might not be too bad. Ill post a pic of it later to see if their is a way to get it off for anyone that knows? The last pic shows a head shot with the Eagle ammo So a WARNING to those who are against head shots and who are sensetive.

I sell some of the skins to irish bodhran makers, ( irish hand drum) so i might just look into that. Cheers, Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted May 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Hi Frank, from where do all the goats come? They have been released? Well done by the way. Hubertus Thanks Hubertus. :yp: The goats were let go a few years ago Hurbertus, only a few and bred like rabbits after and became feral. They have been living semi-wild (feral) for some time and are considerd a pest. Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rimfire round as a lip on the rear casing and there is no sign of a percussion cap whatsoever .The firing pin strikes the outer edge of the brass casing to leave a rectangular dent .These rounds are a lot smaller as well .
