Last nights 243 vs 22-250 comparison
It's a wonder the 243 actually killed it. Did you need more than one shot?
243 goes well no dramas at all ,
22-250 really does the damage tho
Quiet stroll 3rabbits and 2hares,

Went to go fishing with a mate this morning, knocked a few rabbits over first then loaded up the truck headed of up the road and clearly a bunny felt lonely and jumped under my truck for an instant death...make that 4 for 3 shots...
No photos I'm afraid...
Went a a long range hunt. I banked that the wind would drop out but it got worse, took the wrong gun. Cool hunt though, only 16 shot but 3 were black rabbits. 3 in one hunt...unreal
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit ya know :PQuote:

You got the same wind as we had here in Cromwell in the evening, made shooting hard, the 223 was hard work over 180mtrs, a lot of right to left drift.Quote:

yeah mate, trying to always position yourself in a favourable position to the wind for a longer shot is the challenge . . . without an answer sometimes, frustrating.Quote:

usually i use hi velocity ammo only in a semi with a 4X scope and ya need all the help you can get . . . but after shooting a few hundred bunnies at longer ranges there is no advantage at all, i think subs actually kill better, which sounds counter to how it should be . . . but they do.
