Thread: What little pesties did you bowl over today?

Saw lots of rabbits around the paraglider launch site when i lived in zqn, never got around to asking people up there for access. Might be heading back soon so will have to remember up there.

first blood to my new .243 Tikka Varmint. - did a quick zero, 2 shots across the Chrony & into it . . . now that i have had a wee play i can settle down to work on a good load etc

@rossi.45 that looks like a nice setup

blown a gail on the hill today . . . but still worth a walk, stretch the old legs and a bonus found some fresh Pig rooting up the back of the station

How much does it cost you for a .243 round, could work out expensive if you are shooting several hundred. Nice shooting at those distances though, I used to shoot over at Banockburn 30 years ago with a 22 magnum and a shotgun and I would clean up around 600 in a day. We used to cut the tails off as proof and have a competition with each other to see who could shoot the most in a day. I have another hot spot over central way that I can blow away a couple of hundred in a day and I can't wait for my holidays in another 5 weeks so I can head back there. The weather should be warmer by then as well. Keep up the good work rossi.45

never worked out the cost of loading any ammo . . . best not to know, just keep buying new stock as it goes down . . . the .243 is never going to be high volume shooting, the barrel could be toast in a couple of months if i shot it like my .223s

know the area Banockburn but never shot on it . . . use to shoot Northburn which isnt to far away, my first taste of Central Otage Rabiit shooting.

look forward to seeing lots of pics on this thread of your Central holiday . . . good luck

Came across this fella on my travels tonight.

Thought he must've been shot and dumped there because it was only 10 mins away from home, and have never seen them this far down. But when I kicked it off the road, I'm pretty sure it had been hit because just about every bone in his body was broken.
Be able to shoot them out my window next
