mattwhite 1,993 Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, after putting a good 700 jsb exact through her and finding point of aim out to 60yrds with a zero at 25yrds we had a break in the shocking windy weather today so off I went to my most rabbity permission. I arrived just after 15.30 and by 15.50 had brought my 1st woody of 2016 down from a bloody HUGE conifer! Well happy!!! After that I dug myself in for a while near a fairly productive spot at a little over 35yrds away. I didn't have to wait too long before coney number 1 fell to a high speed lead missile! Then number 2 and 3 from the same spot. Feeling well pleased with the hw's maiden voyage I decided to get back to the van and head home. I retrieved the last rabbit and spotted another at what seemed like a good 50 yards off so I sat down, arm wrapped round raised knee and decided that 2 mill dots hold over was necessary. At worse, it would fly over its head without injuring said rabbit....and it did just that. I actually saw the impact point on the fence behind it and as it didn't bolt into the field I got chance to go again with 1 1/2 mill dot holdover and whollop. ..over it went. To say I am pleased with the guns performance is a MASSIVE understatement and hopefully the weather will stay calm for another hunt tomorrow! Here's a pic of tonight's quarry and thank you for reading ? 6 Quote Link to post
