Guest rabo Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 I know it's not much but im in my glory with this 17hmr,out for an hour and a half this morn mooching about trying to get a shot at crows and jackdaws feeding on a recently spread field,i had a couple of chances at birds over 150yds+ or so but the confidence isn't 100% yet at longer distances yet,was walkin back up to the car and seen this young magpie across the field,leaned up a tree,had a crack, seen the dirt behind kickin up thought i missed,had a look through the scope and seen his wing hanging down was going to take another shot but he went down in the grass, paced it out 123 paces.well pleased,was using federal vshock.

ShaggyRS6 Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 I do like a dead Magpie. There are about 10 pairs hanging around my nwest permission. I will leave a rabbit out for them and hopefully pick em off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
