rifleshooter 0 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 This some new ground secured yesterday the house above is well up from the sets so all shots were safe ,i now have somewhere where i can get some good range rabbit shooting,shots over 400 yds are possible and all safe shots as well,the furthest for the day was 274 yds not real long shots but fun all the same and keeps the confidence going the total bag for a couple of hours was 20 hits plus the usual misses,shot quite a few less than half grown rabbits to make it a bit more challenging at range,some may dissagree with this but everyone is entitled to there opinion,plus the farmer is wanting these rabbits thined out ,so it keeps him happy one of the shooting points,this area will only be visited once a month so as not to do to much damage and keep the farmer happy plus its a 163 mile round trip so this will stop me over shooting the area,the farmer also says there is a few fox's about so hopefully will get some lamping done,the rabbit at the bottom of the photo is the one that was shot at 274 yds with no visible damage which i was suprised at as some of them were almost destroyed,the weather was perfect not a breath of wind MADE A BIT OF A BOBO ON THE PREVIOUS POST Quote Link to post
