    Around 40 long(ish)range bunnies between 3 of us today. Most around 140-240, longest for me at 310.

    Cheers Headcase and Wirehunt, awesome fun!

    Just the bunnies yesterday. There was a chance of wallabies and plenty of sign down in the riverbed, but none to be seen.

    About 80mtres with .22 subs
    2nd one I heard the hit but it went over a ridge will try and find it in the morn with the dogs.
    3rd one was in my sights but ran towards the skyline on a hill so let it go as it wasn't safe.

    Good on you for not taking that third shot Dundee. That is a great lesson for the boys.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
