    My boy and me have just got back from a trip up near Luggate on a station I shot on a while back. Junior has just left 6th form so we had a trip away male bonding. Took the 2 x 223's (savages) 6.5 Tikka and the 20g .
    Shot 138 bunnies over about 14hrs shooting and caught a couple of trout to split the tedium of nailing rabbits out to 284m (Personal best rabbit)

    Brilliant .
    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

    good job spudattack, Ive got the same problem but the 12gauge approach isnt very acceptable in in a built up urban area. being an elevated section i cant even use the silenced .22 without the risk of the projectile leaving my property. Anybody got non-gun related solutions?
