    They are a good 22! It may just need the mag springs stretched or a proper clean out. Be warned though they are not that much fun to strip.

    The 260 might have a wee bit to much oomph for those critters but dead is dead. Certainly wasn't going to walk away.

    Stuck these pics from my walk last night on the air rifle thread but I don't think it gets as many views as this one so ill double up. Rabbits were all shot between 30 - 90m and the Plover head shot was at about 80m
