bigmac 97kt 13,816 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 well went to the perm last night so i could zero the nv back in got to the farm for about 7ish and had a walk about with the s410 first in the day light the sun was out and next to no wind set the zero at 30 yards i came across the first ones in a field next to the park a hole in the hedge allows you to access to say,d field but i just lay down on the mount that the hedge is on and counted 10 really good size rabbits and about 15 kits all running around playing they were about 100 yards away so i lay waiting to see if they would come closer but no they stayed put so i let them be i saw loads of kits and some good size rabbits on the first walk about but far to far to even think of taking the shot but hey the perm is on the up and im happy about that It was the same on the second walk about but on the way back to the tank(4x4) on the farm road one came running from the woods and sat in the middle of the road so i lay prone and took aim i was just about to squeeze the trigger when it took off Its mate had come along and it ran past it and kept running it must have seen me but the first one had stopped on an embankment just long enough for me to take the shot 40 yards paced it just rolled back down onto the road so all i got was one nice size rabbit I set the nv up at 30 yards but every thing had fecked off so i called it a night and headed home still a good night and i enjoyed it sorry no photos atvbmac :thumbs: 6 Quote Link to post

chrismdd 787 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 As already mentioned its just great being out and nice to be away from all the trappings of modern life like junk mail, rubbish TV and cold callers to name but a few. Colleagues at work look oddly at me when I tell that I'll quite happily go and sit in a little copse with my Kelly kettle and just watch and listen to the wildlife. Hoping to get out from Friday evening depending on how changeable the weather will be, got a fishing match on Sunday. 1 Quote Link to post
