Timelord 0 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I went out last night while some of you were tapping the keyboard in the forums I done pretty good as normal although after finding my optimum zero with my rifle the bunnie bashing was even better. I took home 9 big ones & left 3 babies for the badger, I had quite a few wrigglers making it to the stinger nettles for their grave. Feck getting stung to bits collecting them I'm sure the fox and mr badger will clear them for me anyway So in total I killed about 20 and took home 9 for the pot Quote Link to post

ATB Yes mate it's a Theoben Rapid S-TYPE in the .177 flavour Where the big ones not full of milk!? maybe they left behind the young ones for the crows to eat! Only 2 of the big ones were pregnant, 2 were nursing young and were full of milk and the rest were bucks... ATB Lee... Quote Link to post

Sorley x 32 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Killed 20, took home 9 and left 3. I make that a 8/20 or 40% wounding rate. That isn't very impressive. Quote Link to post

Freddy Watts 1 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Even with a head shot a bunnies nerves can cause it to kick quite a way when shot even in the head. It just muscle spasms they are still dead their nerves are just fireing off randomly as they have been severed. Not saying this is necessarily what happened here but it is possible. Thats why you are advised not to shoot a rabbit next to its hole even if you are Certain of a head shot. ATB Freddy Quote Link to post
BBB 7 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 mmmm. i think although 177 has good penetration, they lack knock down power, shock factor, call it what you will. Quote Link to post
