Thread: What little pesties did you bowl over today?

my mate might have been slightly under powered with the thing. 288m and 338 edge just did the trick.

Mate got a hedge pig coming home tonight,christened his new shotty

That fork looks like an old eelers spear we have one similar if the boys haven't lost it.

lucky if i got 60 minutes shooting in this evening, damm it gets dark quick.

nothing over 200yds

Not yet, but soon. Crickets seen to have disappeared, so these fellas might start being tasty again. Worth a crack.

only enough time this evening to re check zero
.5 inch high at 100 yds, dead on at 200yds . . man the .204 is flat shooting.

also ran the elevation dial up 2 turns (30MOA) to check click value . . all good.

200yrd group was under .75inch - 100yrd while only 2 shots were still well under .5inch - its a shooter

with just enough time to shoot a couple of rabbits at 187 - 200yds before the light went

Does being half an inch high mean that you aim half an inch lower than what you want to hit if it's at 100 meters away?

the 100yrd square is 1 inch ( 25mm ) 200yrd ( 50mm )

it means i can be lazy and not dial in any elevation to well past 200yrds with a center mass shot ( i dont do head shots ) on a rabbit with the .204 making a quick shot possable . . . in contrast to when i use say .22 subs i may need 130+ clicks of elevation which all takes time, range, firing solution, setup the shot . . and the rabbit has moved, start the process again . . maybe not get a shot at all . . also rabbit numbers are down this time of year so its nail them quick and back to the subs next spring . . . ya gotta love the variety of shooting styles, i do anyway

a full days walking today . . . started with the Remington

#no 3 steel

@Dundee... good shit, I've got about 8 trail cam pictures of a cat who just wont enter my traps, its starting to really bug me, reckon I need some of that #3 steel. well done! @rossi.45 gotta love those shots of yours, reckon I could barely see a bunny at 351yards. Awesome keep it up, there is certainly no shortage of the buggers down there !!

No open work this weekend, all tight stuff in the scrub, schist and boulders, 30 shot. Made a nice change sneaking around never having the scope over 3 power.

good stuff Viper . . . i was expecting to see the new .17
