Got up at first light today to shoot for a bloke in his garden. Arrived and saw loads of rabbits so I got about

4 rabbits in my line of fire

first 10 mins but wasent confident they were about 40-50 yards. So carryed on and got loads more in sight but still I wouldent take a shot even though I knew I could hit em. Anyway when at last I decided to take the Shot my

gun dident fire (I need to sort

this) this happend twice. I went and cocked went round a corner and there was a rabbit 15 yards away standing shot..... Bollocks I MISSED so now 2 hours and nothing to show. Oh and I missed a pigeon from close too what makes it worse the owner wanted me to show him how to skin and make stew.

oh dear sounds cringe worthy mate! what gun is it? is it a trigger malfunction or something? i missed a rabbit a couple of nights ago too id just filled me gun up for the first time since getting it (s400) and i didnt compensate for it and went straight over the little sods head! he was about 20 yards! kicked myself

Soo cringe worthy. I'm using a gas ram BSA supersport. Will strip it

down later. Not sure how I can show my face again there after that!! Have to practice lots!!!

Lol yea!! I wouldent normally miss by the way this was an exceptionaly bad occasion and my trigger worked sometimes and not on others. Also my target shooting if fine from 15-50 yards I need more field practice with range estimateing etc but as you guys say a LOT of practice wouldent go a miss.

Sorry stealthy mate I really am a plonker!! Yea you were half there instead it was macaroni cheese but bugger me once I sort my gun out tuesday or Wednesday morning it will be rabbit stew for the whole village. Unless of course I can't hit squat again.
