I thought you might get a kick out of a pest you don't get to see very often. This bobcat was taken by Pawnee Josh's brother with a Tikka CTR in 260 at 298 yards using a SWFA SS 3-15 scope.Attachment 32643

Thats one cute pussy cat...
Are they a native to your area or regarded as a pest?
9 rabbits and a sneaky hare, plus one hawk intent on making a meal out of some ducklings on the pond, should have landed on that post, it was his last!

Got these 3 around the paddock next to the house. Mrs black has been quick on many occasions to get into her hole but not this evening.
I had managed to pick off a coulpe of her little ones the other day.
What?? You didn't shoot the hawk did you? Much prefer them to pesty ducks.Quote:

No problem down here to remove the old Hawk with a permit.:thumbsup:

Grunzter, bobcats are native to the continental US but are not really much of a pest. They are actually pretty reclusive.
Hole diggers are quicker than they used to be - went for a walk last evening and saw a couple but too quick - went back out with the light and saw a couple and got this one along with a couple of hedgepigs - went out this morning and saw a couple but too quick for me :wtfsmilie:
Might split this one and put him in the DOC250 -

Not sure who bowled this pestie over yesterday - but likely he got clipped at 100kph - only ever seen two of these - both on the road and very close to us - so they are around - :pissed off:

time out whip the ferrets tail off for this years swamp comp.
I might go back with a sharp spade and a plastic bag - imagine he will be a bit smelly :chop:
Now if I'd had that permit on me I could have hit it on the head with it rolled up, instead he sucked a 17 hmr, my only concern is how much he looked like a bittern, oh well stiff shit, the ducks lived another day!Quote:

YES , it was a bit far for me std hornet , BUT its a little flatter than your chart , its a 40gr vmax at 3000 fps , my drop for 300yds is 1.5 mils , scope is a good dial up jobbie , Bushy 3-12x44 LRHS , and the goat was BEGGING for IT , so I gave it to him .
Cheers Chris
