    Got a new paddock to shoot that was previously not available due to the stock that was on it.
    Stopped at 12, as it was a solid walk back with that many in the pack.

    After sighting in my 28 nosler I managed to nail a magpie at 338meters . Super happy with that build.

    Second Rook in a week! Managed to get this one on camera. Rifle is a .25 cal Uragan 2 running about 55fpe. POI at this range is about 3/4" above POA which explains the slight hold under. The Rook only made it a few meters out of frame before it realized it was dead.

    I may have to join in this pest eradication game as I went down to my range this afternoon to do a bit of maintenance and fuck me dead I opened the gate to see a fucking rabbit down there. That is just tempting fate but I was only armed with a battery powered drill at the time. Note to self, take a .22 with you next time Rushy.
    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
