    Four pigeons to the mighty 22 air rifle.
    Horse Stud near where I live gave me a call regarding a couple of dozen pigeons crapping in the feed barn and over the vehicles. The 22 rimfire is too big a risk of both punching through the tin roof or ricocheting off towards stock. So out came the trusty air rifle.
    Just getting a shot and then waiting till they come back took ages, but I got 4 in 2hrs. I will prob go and spotlight them next time.

    Spent the weekend down the Haka. 30 wallabies between two of us and two pigs to my mates rifle - I had a big oops on mine, so we put it away. Not before I'd slayed a couple of Ozzie Overstayers out to 350m. Here's a pic of my mate taking back wheels off three successive shots, where Mum, Dad and Joey all got their visas revoked - Permanently at 200, 211 and 251m.

    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.

    Looks like a mag below the ejection port.

    Yup the Toz has a mag. I got it for Christmas then stripped it, chopped the stock down to fit my little arms, sanded and refinished.

    Borrowed this slug gun recently which was a it of fun. Killed off all the starlings and maggies and now the Tui birds have returned love those guys. I might make a feeder.
