    Congratulations on your sons first rabbit, but I would be seriously worried about the attitude.
    That is how people end up getting shot.
    All fun and games when shooting at rabbits in a safe environment but if you carry that over to bush stalking for bigger game when he is older it is a recipe for disaster.

    @tiroatedson, I am not suggesting that what you did was dangerous or unsafe. What i am saying is that your son (from an early age) should be taught that it is imperative that he identifies what PART of an animal he is shooting at. Not only from a safety point of view but also to insure a humane, clean kill on game.
    It is all part of POSITIVELY IDENTIFYING YOU TARGET.

    Went out for another bomb up on some hares last night. Managed my longest shot on a rabbit at 547 yards, didn't get it on camera as my bloody battery went flat after shooting the first few critters.

    547 yard rabbit (excuse the pose, a bit of a mess even at this range)

    I know shearer but he's 8 yrs old n as it so happened it was a chest shot. I tell them all the time to go for shoulder chest shots and as we all know we r human and cos we r humans sometimes we just get it wrong. After he'd told me I did say that ideally you would want to go for shoulder/chest area.
