So i've been out culling some goats for a guy on his land, theyre eating out his trees, so thought id do us both a favour, get in some hunting, save his trees and get some dog tucker.
So i leashed up my 2 dogs (look like a slim black labs, got them as pups 6 yrs ago for a box of beer, deal of the century), one was keen as, nose down, straight onto the trail.
It was quite fast to get up to the goats thanks to the dog, they make it so easy to get onto the game.
Anyway, the good dog got us right up to the small mob, so i tell the dogs to wait and i go forward to let off a shot, one dogs straight off away, runs off (a wee bit gun shy)and the other cant help herself, shes glued to my leg (love the dedication to the hunt), i line up for a head shot with the 308, and bang i hit it in the shoulder at about 20-30m, odd, it runs maby 10m leaving a blood trail a blind man could follow(thanks 308) we move on again, and catch up to a nanny and a good eater, another head shot that goes low too, still drops it, shoot agian, a miss, getting pissed off, woner if i knocked the scope.
any way get the 2 goats up to the wheels, theres the other dog hidding under the car!need some doogy ear muffs.lol
as for the accuracy i'm wondering if it was the cleaning i gave the gun, as the accuracy was spot on 2 weeks ago, ive used the odd pull thru, maby twice over 10 years, and i got (finally) a propper cleaning kit and gave it what i thought was a well needed clean, spotless bore now, but it seems to be a gun that likes it dirty, but then dont we all![]()
