hi all

 

i recently got hold of a sabatti 22 rifle semi auto.. i had fancied on for a while and one came up localish and at a good price so of i went..

 

i must say they are quite fun and super quite..

 

my plan was to go out for a squizz early morning as i wanted to tan the pelt..

 

i got into a small spiny and waited for 30 min wen i nice cock pheasant came trotting out.... i love to eat pheasants but me being a poor shot with the 12g i don't get the chance to eat as many as i would like so i took the opportunity and got my self a nice bird for tea...

 

10 minuets later mr squizz came trotting along the bank of a small swamp i took aim and let rip a silent puff and down he went stright into the water never mind he still went to good use ..

It will get costly if you take the scope off......you'll be trying for rabbit on the run then! Empties spitting out the side all day lol.

 

Don't ask how I know :whistling:
