rabbit's & pigeons with a .22 air rifle

[adam scott 1]

i wish to know how others have got on with a .22 air rifle. what's the best you've done in one day? last year i bought an air rifle, when i got it, all i wanted to do was go out and bag some virmin. my best was 4 rabbits in one walk. also i had 5 pigeons one day over deeks. has anyone had good day's like this? i felt very lucky with 4 rabbits.

I used to do more shooting on the lamp than during the day, to get 10-12 in the bag in a couple of hours wasnt unusual

i dont have any permissions with rabbits close to me so it ca be a pain to get my dad to take me there. my biggest bag is 3 but my biggest bag of pigeons is 11 though all had them roost shooting

Biggest bag Is 51. I traveled down to my mates perm and we started out with the air rifles round the farm land. Think we ended up with about 20 between 2 of us. Then the darkness started drawing In so we took 1 air rifle out and a silenced .410 along with the quad. My mate did the majority of the driving so I was shooter. The air rifle was used when around any buildings or where noise was needed to be kept down. Was a great day and night we ran out of carts and space on the quad

i think my best was last year it was 14 rabbits, 5 scwizers, 7 woodys and a rat. but this was out from the crack of dawn till it got dark. i did a bit of sniping, mooching and bated up for the scwizers (peanut butter)and got the rat on the peanut butter. ive not had a bag like this sinse. was just one of them days when everything went to plan

Cheers Kyle. Yeah we had a good do but were lucky as there's plenty of rabbits up there. Don't get me wrong we were out a while, I got there for about 5.30-6 ish after work and got home early hours of the morning but even spending that much time out locally you'd NEVER get numbers like that and that's because they arn't here.
