Yep, I've had them opened up like they've been hit by a Stanley knife, run across a field, stagger and then drop. On the very odd occasion we've had to go out and get the dogs to find them. But the round that I now use has never failed to stop on the spot. 1 Quote Link to post

Stavross 15,421 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 So I went back up to where I shot the chicken muncher last light, the lad on the farm next door trapped 2 cubs and I shot 2 last night that were mooching around the sh*t pile, no pictures because it wasn’t pretty with the .243 at less than 70 yards but a job that needed to be done 8 Quote Link to post

Stavross 15,421 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 It’s the way forward si, I’m doing all sorts now, bit of fencing this week and laid 200 square meters of fake grass last week I have more time to myself now, so Ive came up to the shoot to sort a few rabbits out, I’ve just had a walk around shot a rabbit, went to pick it up and 2 cubs jumped up out of the wheat in front of me, I don’t know who was more shocked, me or them, theses are near the earth I found at the weekend, so a pile of rabbits should keep them entertained for a day or two until I come back 4 Quote Link to post
