    Well TR, I've been talking to your Aunty and there are heaps of rabbits on the farm. So after Xmas we'll be into them, along with gadgettes #2 and maybe #3.

    That is one I haven't managed yet, well done Dougie. Most places they take off at about 150m. Might have to sent 55gn their way.

    Just a couple of 6mm-08's (can't put 243 in case R93 sees), a 308 and some shotties. But I like the accuracy and legs of the 223, especially compared to the 22lr.

    Actually the mates 250m shot on the hare with a 308 looked good with heart inside out and hanging out the leeward side.

    I cant wait to get a .223. They seem to be the caliber I should have first had in the cupboard. 6.5x55 does more damage to a rabbit at point blank then expected. Try anything once.

    Bloody magpie been turning up on the front lawn every morning at about 6am and making a hell of a racket that drives the wife nuts, but its a sneaky little bastard and every time I just crack a window or unlock the backdoor it buggers off. So after the wife ordered me to assassinate it this morning after a swearing fit I decided enough was enough and blatantly marched outside with the 12 gauge and snotted it as it took off! Then I got in shit because the dog ate it and he's supposed to be on a diet...
