Not sure this is the correct section but has anyone experienced a sharp decline in rabbit numbers? I have 4000 acres and there are hardly any rabbits lately. I have put this down to the RVHD virus as they have all disappeared over the past few months. It has literally wiped out the population. I used to be able to go out and shoot 6-10 quite easily. The past four weeks I have shot three! Took the dog out bushing last weekend and he wasn't even marking any of the holes. I would normally start ferreting around now but there's no point if there's no rabbits!!

Looking for a hand to ferret some large hedgerows on my permissions. Too big to do on my own. Own ferrets/nets preferred. ATB Ian.

Nikko Sterling Scope Keeps Going Off Zero

I had a Mountmaster on a HW80 @ 20ft and it actually broke the internal crosshairs after a few shots. -
Same down here mate. Lucky to be getting 2or3. Seen the decline over the past 3 years , I guess that's nature.

One of mine went missing for 10 days so don't give up mate. Try all your local vets even Facebook!!! That's how I got mine back. My wife put a post on and someone replied to say they had been feeding it in their garden.

You could get a brand new one for the same price. I would get the new one and send it off to john bowkett for him to do his magic on and you will have one hell of a rifle!!

I had one of these for my first rim fire. Couldn't fault it for the money, it would shoot rabbits all day at 80yrds. The trigger was a bit rough but it did what it said on they box!!!! I would agree with the others though if you've got the money for a second hand cz then that's the way to go.

Good treatment for ticks is surgical spirit, my vet told me this and I used it once and it works fine. I gave my hob it and the ticks were off within 2 days.
