    Was waiting for a deer to come out just on dark the other day, a cat appeared on the scene, was an easy decision that the cat didn't like and a boost to the local bird population

    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!

    What projectiles are you using? That's big chunks for 5 hits..... or is that you shot 5 times at it?
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    It was actually 4 rounds fired into it at 100 metres, all four plastic tips were left in the turnip, 17 HMR VMax, they must hurt!
