    Shit you have bloody near worn that .22 out Dundee.
    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

    Yes it practically lives on the quad but at least it is still accurate.

    Got this feral tom the other night at 115yd with the 22mag. Was lucky to get him really as I later found the rifle was shooting about 4in to the left @ 100yd
    Looks familiar. Did he answer to the name "Fluffy"?

    The worst thing for a 22 is not being used, mine must be just about rooted

    Nah, he answered to "here kitty kitty kitty kitty!", and me shaking the box of friskies ;-) :-D

    Nah he was definitely feral mate, seen him on the farm on the odd occasion, just never had a rifle handy....

    Spent a couple of hours on the quad tonight. Very quiet, probably because of the wind. HMR'd these two along with some bunnies for the dogs.

    Thanks , I like taking the Hornet out for a walk , BUT I think the bloody magpies are getting to know ME , they are crafty buggers to be sure , a lot of the time , I donot shoot , as they are either skylined or inline with houses/buildings/cattle etc , have to be careful of having a good back stop in case of missing etc .

    Liking the Hornet , using a 40gr Vmax at 3000fps , used a online programme " shooterscalculator " , not bad for a free one , just printed it and taped to the stock .

    Cheers Chris

    18 roos this evening.. to go with the 18 roos and a possum from friday night

    Kills from 210-360y with the last of the light, then pulled the torches out.

    Would have had a few more kills if I'd remembered to throw an extra box of ammo in. Ah well, more for next time!
