Tale Of Two Halves


Recommended Posts

Had the morning off so decided to get myself up the fields and away from my damn macbook for a bit. Its still in my mind that for the first time in my shooting hobby I have a bit of a job to do regarding thinning out those rabbits. I now have a contact that takes them off me for a pie shop near the cathedral, on the agreement that they are head shot and the body has no markings into terms of holes.

 

Hence forth the 100, again.

 

I know its getting a bit boring seeing images of this rifle with about a dozen rabbits, but this is the point Ive always made about the 100, its so surgical, its a bit boring really. As Im starting to know my distances at the new permission, which isn't really new anymore, Im taking rabbits at obscene distances, with confidence and the rabbits are being dispatched as if they're being shot at 30 yards. So yeah, I went this morning with the idea that id go back in the evening with my bitch, the 97.

And I did... the old girl is a filthy dog when shes on song. Id sell my 100 if I had too, but out of my cold dead fingers will my 97 in .22 go anywhere :D
