An hour an half or so at the new permission


Recommended Posts


Breathing settled; I set the missile free, hurtling at 556 feet per second towards its mark. Less than a quarter of a second later I saw the bunny fall over to its left and out of my sight. I walked over to find the mark was stone dead as the micro-missile had hit home nice and hard at close to 8.5 ft/lbs. Bugs didn't stand a chance.

you math is out the window maty boi 16gr @556fps works out to 10.99foot-pounds

even with air arms it would be still close to 11

what Tony means is after the distance the pellet has travelled it will have 8ftlbs of energy when it hits the target not when it leaves the barrel

Hey Niel, when you gonna reply to your FB messages?

Its a shame this little permission is so small and a one man only job; we could have had fun sat at opposite ends dodging each others pellets if we miss the bunnies :11:

nice job good shooting and as for the young ones,well i,m afraid you had no choice,with your landowner watching it left you no option.all were killed as humanely as possible.sounds like a great wee permission.i have something similar and its great fun

Comming home last night I shot a kit in the cemetery. Again i'ts a clearance permission but with the amount of land around it thats crawling, total clearance is never going to happen :thumbs:

Then cutting through the horse paddock permission, I saw both those black kits out playing together :clapper:

Thats a control, more than a clearance and its up to me what I shoot :D
