Today i made a phone call to a neighbouring farmer and have been given access to 1000acres to cull hares.
Had a quick look before sun down they were on the next ridge over just as the sun was setting.

Out for a shoot last night, snagged a ferret and a couple of hares. Oh, and 141 wallabies.
223 was running a little hot all night.. poor barrel.
Stopped on the track looking over a gully at one stage and shot 18 in <5 minutes without moving, then drove around the bend to look back into the side we'd been on, and shot another 4.
First night on the wallabies in ages, great to chase them again.
Got out twice more over the weekend, pretty good run on both. Ill just chuck the photos for both walks up together. Took 12 Rabbits out on the Orchard and 6 Goats and a Hare out on the Farm. Goat shots were 30-150m and the .223 did very well. The centrefire is a CZ527 Ebony in .223 and the PCP is a Zbroia Kozak in .22.
5 all taken from the one spot on the driveway

Zoom in to see the beauty headshot on this bunny, 60m standing shot unsupported.
Attachment 122985
This Nanny popped her head up only about 30m away, got a bit messy.
Attachment 122986
This Kid was running at about 120m and the shot didn't quite go where it was planned so it needed a follow up head shot (which tore off its jaw)
Attachment 122987
This Nanny was sitting still waiting for me at 150m so I put one into the engine room, good bang flop.
Attachment 122988
Tried to get a fancy shot showing off the CZ
Attachment 122990
This Hare hunkered down about 40m away thinking he was invisible, .223 made a real mess of him with blood and guts spread about 10m away.
Attachment 122989
A cheeky Mynah that was bugging me at home today, knocked him off his branch nicely.
Attachment 122991

Earlier on in the week I bumped into a lovely family who have a bit of a bunny problem so they were happy for me to go and shoot a few funnies and that's an understatement.
Seeing as it was a stunning Saturday I wondered up there for an evening hunt with the CZ .22 as the shooting distance isn't far so I could leave the HMR at home.
Wondering around until dark in t-shirt and shorts in this sudden hot weather I shot just on 50 bunnies not even putting a dent in the population!
They weren't gun shy so you sat there and waited for them to pop out.

I'll go back again in a couple of days for a night shoot with the new M1 Archer mounted on the rifle and see what I can accrue.
Gorgeous grain on that stock. Nice haul on the hoppers too!
Attachment 123357
Went out to check the zero on the 17hmr before hitting the hares tonight.....yup zero is all good smacked these 2 over at 100 yards saved me wasting a paper target :thumbsup:
Out with the CZ .17 HMR with Maxtoch M1 Archer spotlighting last night.
Just some of the 60 odd bunnies, 1 hare, 6 possums shot.
