snowz Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) Went out on my own earlier to have a sit out over looking a few fields where I regulary see Charlie. No sooner had I got my rifle set out with my LF140 on top of my 222, I drive up the road 50yds lamp on and spot Charlie sleeping in the first field. I get out an rifle on roof of my trooper lamp back on confirm its a fox put crosshairs between the eyes and squeeze off a shot..... Smack Charlie is dead, walked over pinged back to truck an 157 Yds Missed a few lately easier shots than this too, little confidence boost tonight lets hope it carries on If the pic is deemed graphic I apologise and will remove it if needed Edited January 7, 2012 by snowz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royboy Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I may sound stupid here but ! Is it the impact of the shot that makes its eyes pop out like that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Mule Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Royboy: yup! Excellent shot. That is a perfect example of how to humanely put down vermin. He probably had just enough time to think "what is that annoying bright light?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yds Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Head shots at range are never easy. If you can wait for a broadside shot mate, might not miss as many as you said. Well done anyway. I shoot over 100 a year (and taken over 2,500 foxes now) out to 360m's (under the lamp)(further in daylight) or so have a very accurate sako 22250 and a ziess 6-24x56 with a drop compensator and still wouldn't like a head shot at that range.
