BIG TOM 835 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Well lads havent posted a write up on here for a while but ive been busy bunny bashing so dont worry haha Well early this morning decided to head out to the local dairy farm to hit a few crafty corvids the day before i striped the rifle to give her a good old wipe down do to using her in the wet quite a bit ? so any way quick zero and i set off well bugger me saw about 30 corvids in the first cattle shed so slow stalk uo to the water trough saw me upto 30 yrds ish lovely cross hairs bang on and let one fly smack pellet straight into the muck pile ? not too worry a few stuck around so another shot and smack straight into the pile again ? bugger they didnt hang around again so any way picked up an orange from the cattle feed at 25 yrds hitting pretty well so back off hit the fields for a few bugs not many about but did line one up at 35 yrds so let another fly and yep missed again so not wanting to continue and risk an injury to animals with out a certain kill shot i packed up went home to find on paper ot was hitting a tad high and left so after a good 2 hrs of paper pucnching getting bloody good groups i set off again to the same farm instead concentrating on the fields and garden for old bugs well first one sat at 25 yrds under the pretty large apple tree went down with out a twitch a few yrds to the left a little kit after s few flips he was in the bag (owner wants the numbers thining down abit so a few young have to go ) 2 mintues and two in the bag So the garden done onto the fieds well first field and a nice 40yrds standing supported text book onto the next saw a few running about at a gate way so steady stalk to the gate with a hedge both left and right so left side first nice sqautter boom hits it like a brick leaps about 8 ft into the hedge so turn around to right side where another just raises his head to see why the olympic gymnast bunnys are preforming and let the trigger go and boom anothrr leaper but this time into the slurry pit ? so no getting that one Went to look for the high jumper but coukdnt get a foot in the hedge so 5 down but 3 retreived so pretty happy with that Sorry for the boring saga but thought id make uo for the lack of posts haha Cheers lads and all the best Tom ? 4 Quote Link to post

Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 good shooting tom shame about your zero being off at first its annoying when you miss and its not your fault. I always check my zero first.. with my 100 it hasn't moved at all tho but I still check just incase I have knocked it 2 Quote Link to post
