sako751sg Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 18 degrees today so want roond a few places to see what was cutting aboot ready for the bucks coming in and took the .17hmr for a rabbit and a fox if they appeared.Absolutely scorching with hardly any wind and plenty of roe showed but the 4 bucks i scoped were all yearlings but hopefully the big lads will be cutting aboot shortly.Great to hear the birds on a super spring day and lets hope it stays for a while. With it being fine i thught there was a chance of a few rabbits on a grass park that has a thick march and used to be thick with them although the last couple of winters have thinned them oot a good bit.Glassed it from the roadside and counted 87 so walked down and set up for a few hours.Ended up with 9 picked and lost 2 shot with them just at the mooth of their holes and kicking down.Closest was 43 yards and the other 7 were from 129 to 140 yards which shows how good a bit of kit it can be.Should have had another 5-6 but the CZ was firing aboot 4 inches right and it took me a while to realise it wasnt my shooting that was ****.

Well done Dave. Nice bag and lovely pics. Great to see you back out hunting and not working up in Inverness! Cheers Mark.Great with the wee pill once the rifle was on and going to look for more rabbit ground just for that. Had a fall oot with the lad when i was up there so going to have a few weeks off and take in the start of the bucks and as much else as i can.Have you had the 455 in action yet?
