Mainly 223 but the 22 got cracked out as well.
Mate used his 223, 17hmr, 22wmr as well and he cracked out his 22nosler for some very explosive reaction

The very gun shy remnant of our spring magpie population came for a rare visit a few days ago. There’s only four left and they scatter at the first sign of movement. Those birds have watched a good two dozen of their mates act all weird and stop flying… and just lie there… just after a strange pop noise. They don’t like that strange pop noise anymore.

I saw the birds at about 80m through the pittosporum, snuck up to the fence for the shot, and inexplicably failed to hold over. WTF? Dumbass.

Puff of dust directly below the bird and off they went. Man I was cross… bet at least one and probably two of them would’ve come for a look if I’d hit the first one. Haven’t seen them since.

Those corvids are very bright animals. Would be absolutely terrifying if they were large and powerful enough to plot revenge. Good thing those raptor dinosaurs don't exist anymore.

You've got a very rare animal there... I've only ever seen one like it and that was when I was a kid!

A little walk the other night before Christmas.

That looks like it did in the bad old days in Sussex / Surrey on the dairy farms, before myxomatosis struck.

What cartridge did you shoot them with?

I was mostly shooting with my CZ 452 .22LR shooting subs but once I ran out of the limited amount of .22 subs I had I then switched to the .17 HMR (pictured).

The amount of dead bunnies looks good but if you saw the property… we’ll, I haven’t even put a dent in the numbers!
