    Well done Tarrbaby. This forums members certainly account for a lot of pests.
    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

    3 rabbits and 3 magpies in the usual spot on the farm. Took a while to get my eye in after 6wks off. Spot on by the end.

    Pictures taken with my phone through the scope, so not that good but you get the idea. That rabbit is 92m away, using subs.

    Good work guys. I need to get out more. All I managed was to sort out the noise in the ceiling when I got home from the range. I can't show you any of the photos that TimeRider took because she ran away with my phone. Apparently it was still moving.

    I missed the white one with the bow, its shooting low for somereason I will have to check it but think its due to the broadheads being heavier then the field tips I use for targets. Anyway once I missed I hobbled back to the car got the rifle and had a pop shot while it was running away. Bugga I missed oh well get the dog and go for a looksey. I walked a bit and nah nothing then turned around and Pip was staring under this fallen tree and oh here we are two young goats so Pop Pop both down they go. Turns out I did hit the first shot (gut shot). 2 goats hanging up for Dad to do in the morning since I have work and brothers diving
