    I was getting cabin fever late in the afternoon so took the new Anschutz/Kahles combo for a walk. 4 from 4 rabbits out to 53yards freehand so was pretty pleased with that.

    Especially when you are out on the river having a quiet day flying fishing.

    Nice work! Yep the trigger time pest shooting is always fun, ya mate Brendon is certainly enjoying his T1x 17hmr

    How do you find shooting off the tripod, obviously seems to work. I'm picking it must be alot easier than resting over a fence post, i always struggle to do that.

    Yeah i cant shoot freestanding to save myself. First time out with them, quite bulky and solid but makes for a steady shot. Takes longer to set up than trigger sticks but like i say solid. Good for setting up in a stationary spot. Took out 3 in a row from that position and helps to elevate over the longer grass.
