About LinkBacksI control the squirrels on the estate with traps, poison is not allowed, so walk the trap lines daily with a shotgun shooting a few and reseting the Fenn Mk4 tunnel traps.

I am also required to keep the Canada goose population down in the area due to the sites of special scientific interest (SSSI) on the estate
So out early yesterday morning!

Coming to the end of the season for deer in the UK but took this fox while following the Fallow herds, I keep the foxes under control to assist the ground nesting birds in the area

I often take my lunch break at a squirrel bait station and shoot a few while I eat my sandwiches, great fun
This an image from early autumn, fattening up for the winter

Nice work.
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

good spotting @Billbob Yes it is stinging nettle . . not to much fun getting down behind the gun in a field of it but its got to be done, its the worst part of the farm for rabbits but the good news its all in the 200 to 300 range which is perfect for this rifle. Originally Posted by Billbob
its magic country for Varminting or just old school rabbit shooting . . . before i left that spot i looked around the hills to see how far was the furthest rabbit i could see thru the 10 power binos and then the scope on max 32 power, hillsides were in the shade, you can see them a lot better if theyre in direct sunshine . . 600ish yards for the binos and 2 groups of rabbits at 960 & 980 yards for the Nightforce . . walked back to the truck thinking about what kind of rifle i would need to have a go at them . . as ya dowithout a picture . .. it never happened !

Bit of a average night last night. Missed a couple, swap rifle did a little better, plenty hopped off before I could draw a bead. Claggy evening, mist/fog up high, very light rain.
Shot a possum n rabbit as well. Forgot to take photo of them. Guess I’ll have to go back…
