    A couple of hours in the apple orchard this arvo with the 17 Hornet, nailed a few more rabbits, longest shot 270 yards.

    Turned a couple of noisy Aussie invaders into fertiliser and puffs of white feathers.

    Good fun!

    LOL no, I didn't have much to shoot at past that post with the water line running up it did I. ;-) As you can imagine when you do a lot of this shooting you get a lot of faith in your rifle and ability with it to place shots. I'm using a 20x scope on it, with a tiny varmint fine dot reticle. I'm lying prone with very good rests for each and every shot, it makes it fairly easy.

    Ive got a Weaver SuperSlam 4-20x50 with a fine X Dot reticle. Its great during decent light but once the light starts to fade i cant see the tiny dot. But its awesome in decent light.

    Recently changed from the 3-15x42 SuperSlam just for the higher mag for the longer shots.

    Brilliant !

    from my cooking days, Jugged Hare, hard to beat. Keep the blood in a plastic bag if you can, for the recipe. Best prepared over a day or so.

    a good recipe here https://www.greatbritishchefs.com/re...ed-hare-recipe
