Thread: What little pesties did you bowl over today?

Well done GB. That is a good haul.

Well my count just went from 26 to 38.


On a not entirely unrelated matter, is it ok to eat pregnant rabbits? Or will they (a)make me sick or (b)taste like crap

If you eat the babys whole and un cooked it might

Its just abort right Gravel Ben

Milky does, no thks I bin em

Two bunnies shot with 17hmr, range finder said one was at 45yards and the other 90ish.

Could've had three more, but if I shoot them all they can't breed and then I can't eat them.
Shall concentrate on magpies and plovers.

sorry no idea either but one the hares i posted the other day have twin babies when i gutted it, they must have been ready to be born as they had claws and everything. first hint was milk when i opened the gut, well that and having a huge belly compared to its mate.

I like the way you think Beetroot Cool shot placement too no waste on those tastey critters.

Sustainable harvesting Dundee. Very Eco conscious.

Ive got a place where I shoot goats, and I only ever take one or two. The farmer probably wants me to take them all, but he doesn't have to know lol.
Younger goats are extremely good eating.

the back wheels are great slow roasted .. in an oven bag ..

and the back "steaks" if you can call them that are great done quickly at very high heat on the grate side of the bbq

8 rabbits with the missus' new air rifle yesterday.

All of them shot out of the windows of our house

That's a total of 13 since buying the gun last week. I thought we only had about 9 regular visitors

I am quite amazed at the power and accuracy of the wee air rifle, head shots out to 25 metres are quite achievable with open sights.

I remember as a kid stalking rabbits and birds like a ninja only to miss very easy shots, either my shootings improved or the guns sighted in properly (I'd bank on the latter! haha)

before i got my FAL a few years ago i had a crossman g1 extreme air rifle with scope. I lived rural and our property was surrounded by adult totara trees with plenty of possums. I shot nearly 90 possums over 18 months with it and as long as I shot them in the chest they generally died with one shot which is very surprising i think. i used gamo rocket and gamo hunter pellets and they both worked well.

I've got one of those G1's too and it has has many thousands of pallets through it by hundreds of kids. Donated it to a camp earlier this year. Took a few rabbits with it.
