If your cat is not that old, and strong still, a little good salt, 1g-2g for a whole rabbit like this size may help his/ her health. I am cats owner, the oldest one now is 20 years old.Quote:

So I grabbed the .22 and the binos and peeked through the hedge, and as I suspected the rabbits had pulled up in front of the neighbour's wood pile about 60m away. Stupid move! I setup with the "sitting" bipod - such a handy tool - and waited about 30 seconds for them to obligingly line their heads up.
Game over.

Went to mow the lawns at the maimai and noticed some pig rooting around, had my new .308 with me to show my mate but she sure came in handy

Cold but clear evening chasing hares and whatever else might pop up in North Canterbury. Not much out, managed three hares and 1 possum for a two hour walk around.Attachment 245981
@AdamAnt Frick that's a cool photo! Good skills, good eating. Was that like one barge or one ever thirty minutes?
Last week there was a thread discussing what was left to eat after shooting rabbits and hare with 222 Remington or 22 Hornet? I said the exit hole for a Hornet was about the size of a golf ball.
On Wednesday I spent a bit of time getting my GUIDE TS450 shooting well on my Weihrauch CH66J 22 Hornet.
On Thursday night I was on the river flats of a regular client and got onto some hare.

It as impressive as @AdamAnt pigs, but...
These were shot between 10m and 90. Photo below to shot the damage.

End weights, plus a feed of livers and kidneys. The bones are in the Crock Pot making stock. When I'm hunting late at night I prefer Thermos of stock, rather than tea or coffee. It warms my engine room up.
Ha! Got timed out before finished adding photos of Processed hares

@Hugh Shields Shot the first two at about 200M as they fed out of the bush, went and picked them up and got them back to the truck. Looked in the opposite direction and saw another 4x had fed out of the bush into another paddock.
First time in my life a "On the count of 3" shot has actually worked out
Peafowl shooting yesterday morning with the .222. Really enjoy it and the cockies like them gone. Got 2 close ones and one at 192m and one at 161m. Quite a strong cross wind so allowed about 2" and that worked.
@Hugy2023 …… I love shooting peacocks. They are a lot harder quarry then many would think. Very wily! Well done.
