Off Lamping

Ok, we [bANNED TEXT]'t down to our first permission at about 6pm, had a wonder around but it was fairly quiet and the land owner had some big gates closed which we wern't climbing so decided to leave there and get a taxi up to our next permission! By now we had used the lamp for a while and it was getting a bit dim but it was still ok for an hour.

Got to our next permission, outta the taxi and kitted back up, as soon as we got up the hill 3 bunnies - didn't get chance to take a shot though.

With Dez on lamp he lit me a rabbit up about 30 yard at the bottom of some trees, perfect range, = bang, one dead!

 

After this the lamp was really starting to go and we only had a maglite with white light, I did manage to light up a couple for dez but I think you could only see them where I was stood and we were struggling a bit, anyhow we went home and skinned/deboned the rabbit and it's now in the freezer! The bsa ultra did it's job.
