pin Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 That is good shooting then mate! There isn't a right and wrong way. If you place shots like you do (seen the evidence) then you keep going and don't listen to anyone else. All that's important is a clean humane kill, the rest is all ******** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggyRS6 Posted June 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 I got one tonight at about 10 yards. I have never heard a "thwack" like it. It was an adult bunny and it went in and came out really clean (using the domed .177) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyber Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Whilst I can see the benefit in training ones self by using a higher mag, unless you have a really good scope, you are not getting as good a picture and I don't care what anyone says its true - more mag = worse picture. If I can hit rabbits out past 100yds on 10x mag, you don't need anything more closer in I haven't said I use anything above 10x. Infact I don't think I have ever gone past 12. I have also said that when trying to better your skills, only to go up to a mag that you can still use and see the quarry clearly. And you are 100% right in what you are saying about the more mag = worse picture. I have an AGS 4-16x50 and at 10x on a rabbit @ 30 yards I can still see it clearly.
