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?

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

River not fishable so time for long range varmitting
Hare spotted

Still getting the elevation right at this distance

First two shots missed bud I shot the bugger when he ran to the fenceline. Pic is zoomed in

Head shot after all

.22 Stirling bolt action....Shooting position at the fence where bike was parked.

Got the best bits off it

Thought it said 873, but no it was bike

Tried to shoot some magpies dident get any saw 4 pheasnt where I shot that cat.good to see some pheasant spent 10 mins with the lab chaseing and flushing them.

Bit of Pest control couple of weeks ago



32 Possums plucked
2 Rabbits and 3 Hares for the pot
2 Hedgehogs

Pretty bloody successful night!

4 magpies and shot my first pigion

Adam Ant >>> what a wonderful site!!

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!!!

50-60 wabbits shot this evening with the semi autos - good shooting but wish the wind would drop so i could go LR

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.

Don't know how it died but he died

Do ya me modified rat trap
