rossi_j 99 Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Local permission that holds a few rabbits that consists of a fair few small paddocks full of horses that is a pain to run the dog in. So I decided to dust off the air rifle a check the zero, was still full of air after 3 or more years (aas410) the zero was still on the button too surprisingly as its moved house twice since then too, anyway went for a little stroll with the Mrs in tow (to hold the lamp) and pulled up to the gate with a rabbit sat in the headlights, fumbling in the dark got the mag in and slotted it between the eyes not a fantastic shot about 30is yards so no hold over, I was aiming for just behind the eyes and didn't quite allow enough windage..... Off to a good start, so pressed on into the first set of paddocks, a few nice rabbits about so I was picking nice easy shots, not all of them hit the target as there was a bit of wind and I am a little rusty... Not going to lie a couple were 25 yard squatters lol. However a quick hour out and that's the animals fed for a few more days ? My come back to air guns. Watch this space ? Modified for messing around with photo bucket, apparently it's not just my shooting that's rusty lol Edited November 5, 2015 by rossi_j 5 Quote Link to post

rossi_j 99 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Cheers Ross, she has better toys than me.... She has been around the world bench rest target shooting, with a box full of medals and trophys to prove it and had more slots on her fac than you can shake a stick at, she's not really into the hunting though, she would have rather stayed at home but the lamp won't shine itself. ?
