    Well Dundee, that green place when I lived in D'Vagas was the rich side of the hill.
    cow to the acre country it was called.
    Global warming, rubbish, it hasn't change, I left D'Vagas in 80 or 81 or there about.

    Took a bunch of feathers off a magpie today, bit rusty after some enforced time off! Ah well, might get the bugger next time.

    went out last night and got the first bunnies on this block and a few little hares. 15hares/bunnies and 1 possum. Used 10/22 with subs most hares were on the run and needed a couple shots, marlin 22mag up the top of block in the wind didnt have to much luck shooting out 100m with a strong cross wind and used the 223 with m24 torch later on the flats. I need to remember to ask about the cats in the area as there was a few and didnt want to shoot their cat.lol Name:  DSC_0222.jpg

    What scope is that mate? Awesome shooting
    She loves the free fresh wind in her hair; Life without care. She's broke but it's oke; that's why the lady is a tramp.

    Got this Bugger at 85yards.
    Would have got his mate too that came to have a look, but couldn't get the shot off due to uncomfortable position leaning on gate.

    Was going to say I think I like this new CZ in 22lr better than my 17hmr, but I bet once I get it threaded and start using it, I'll fall in love with 17hmr again.
