red_stag88 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Had to shoot a cow with my new .308 today. I'd rather it was a deer or goat, but at least i dont have to milk that stinky old bitch any more . She got a real bad infection two quaters and her udder blew - you could smell her for miles. It shoots nicely though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPARKIE Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 he followed the smell into the cow shed thinking it was bosnian aroma tooled up to take out the ****** and to his astonishment it was a cow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirky Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hope you did the right thing by using a good quality lazer range finder, assesing the bullet drop and wind speed before taking the 3yard shot, some people here dont like long range shooting with centre fire rifles. :look: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invector Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Some years ago I read about a steer that had been running loose in some FC woodland, for several months. When it was finally shot there were 16 previous gunshot wounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 The bull on our shoot went loopy last year, the captain volunteered me as I have a "big rifle" after watching it run through a 5 bar gate like it was tissue paper I decided not to annoy it more :look: anyway not sure of the legalities of the whole thing.

I would keep quiet if I were you Noone gives a **** about that here in NZ, as the governtment arn't such ********* about the countryside. The realise that a $1 .308 round is alot cheaper than a $200 vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieT Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 red-stagg Our powers that be are not quite such **** heads.........all you need to do is ask for the humane killing of animals to be added to your firearms certificate and hey presto you can. Simple as that. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
