    I'd hate to be a wabbit at what I would consider a long way from Bernie.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I think it's along way to, longest rabit up till then was 350 with my .223 tika, I think the dial up scope and drop sheet with clicks up for the ranges is the difference,will find out if that long shot was a fluke soon enough(and scope keeps zero its a vortex 4 to16 always used leupold up to now)

    The perfect rabbit gun just in case I spot an Elephant on the farm.I like to practice with the gun that will get most use during the roar and small critters are much more interesting than a paper target at a known distance.3 shots in under 3 min and all rabbits had vanished.

    Not on one of them!All were neck shots but the 285 gr traveled length ways on one. The other two are in the fridge to be roasted in a day or two.
