mjr88 50 Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Hi all Due to work and other commitments, I haven't been out with my HW100s for about 6 weeks. So earlier today (Sunday) with a couple of hours to spare, I set off to one of my permissions to do a spot of bunny bashing. After the initial Zero check, I placed myself in the edge of a paddock that sometimes provides a few rabbits, and waited. Nearly 3 hours went by and nothing, no sign of life at all. As darkness was almost with me, I decided to stay for another 10 minutes, and boy am I glad I did. Bunny number 1 suddenly ran out at a distance of about 35 yards straight in front of me, so I steaded my rifle on my tripod and sent a JSB exact .177 pellet on it's way. Smack, it was curtains for this rabbit with a perfect head shot. And literally as I was about to pack up for the day, Bunny number 2 appeared at a slightly closer distance of about 20-25 yards. And so, with another perfectly placed shot, my final tally for 3.5 hours shooting was 2 rabbits, not great I know, but it certainly beats sitting at home watching the telly, John 6 Quote Link to post
