jamie g Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 went over to my friends last night for a bit of foxing but only saw two but it just must be that time of the year. as i have seen anything up to 12 foxes there some nights ! it was a very still night not abit of wind so i bet that didnt help. the 2 we did see where way out around 400 yards+ and the just wouldnt come in. never mind there is allways next time. so as i took my 17 hmr over we done abit of rabbiting instead. there were loads out but the fields where very wet so couldnt drive round them all. still we had 8 rabbits 6 where bucks so that was good and two where doe's one had young in it. i dont like shooting them when they have young but pest control is pest control. and it wouldnt have been any good to eat anyway as i hit it in the body the rest where head shots which i perfer as it dont damage the meat. then i can sell or eat them then. the one didnt go to waste as the ferrets can have that. soon as its abit dryer we are going to do a night rabbiting with the 22lr's i perfer them at night. as they are all most silent and cheaper to run. anyway here is a couple of pictures forgot to say couldnt find one rabbit. it is in the bush somewhere for foxy to pick up thats the only trouble of shooting one and moving to shoot the next in the 4x4 as i forgot to remember where the 1st one was.
