    Hey time out how long have you had that Cooey?

    My dad had one just like it. Never got to shoot it but would like to know how it goes?

    Sideshow, he just puts the barrel in the cage and pulls the trigger.

    I met a Guy who had it for years and wanted it to go to a good home - I stripped it and it came up real nice
    Longest shot so far was about 5m - about as far as I can see without a scope - I never stick it through the wire KH - let the pill find it way past the wire

    Okay - It's been a while ... been stupidly busy with work but have managed a couple of vermin chasing trips in the last few months. Enjoy ...
    You guys know I love my .22Lr sub shooting - this was a fab evening in the Waikato. Check out the head shots.

    I managed to get away with the family skiing in Wanaka AND took the .204 (plus the .17HMR) but I was mainly the spotter as my son took over pest control. What a joy to see his shooting improve over the week.
    Isn't it wonderful what a fabulous kiwi farmer will let you do when you show some respect, mind your manners ... & put a dozen beers in his wool shed. Champagne shooting! Best was a magpie at 265 yards.
    Looks like my son took a leak on the door?!?!

    Then we headed to Tekapo and as we chased better weather ... once again my 18yo son was on the trigger. Over 3 afternoons after skiing, we shot maybe 150 rabbits on this hillside just beyond the scrub heading up the slope where I was allowed 20-30? Oh to have a steady hand and keen eyes.
    Most shots around 240 yards - his longest was 416 yards - I just love my Kimber Sport Varmint. The evenings were filled with my 16 year old daughter driving the Landrover as we spotlighted another 50+ with the HMR.
    Heaven in Otago & the Mackenzie basin!!!

    55 shot in 2 hrs casual walking, a lot of young ones about, man they are stupid at that age. Never seen the place (Cromwell ) so green, looks like the Waikato ( shudder )
    Chewing through ammo, wind up to much for LR here also.
