    After all this lockdown Lion Brown I would have to leave the dog at home and go and get the damn hare myself. A hundred times over... I’m beginning to look like I swallowed a keg of Brown Bomber.

    Makes me happy seeing feral cats whacked, nice job, even better as it was a ginger.

    Got out for my first walk since lockdown started a few days ago, was only out for an hour and a half but I cant put in words just how good it was to get out!!!

    Started with the .223 knocking over 2 hares sat beside each other at 160m then grabbed the .22 and knocked over a rabbit, 4 turkeys and 5 more hares. Unfortunately found out the farmer had sprayed herbacide in the last month so had to discard the meat but it was still amazing just to get out.

    Thats a Beretta Olympia, fairly heavily modded tho! Both semi auto and bolt action. There is a bit of a build thread on it in the projects section here as project stubbs.

    Shot something I rarely see in our area. This is the second one in 5 years.

    We took the nets off the apple trees, and there were a few apples left after we had done picking. Sure enough, this guy was in there like a hunter after lockdown.

    It's a Tikka T1x in 22lr with a Pard NV008 sitting on top.
    Just used the laser built into the scope for this guy.
