    new rabbit gun?

    i need a new rabbit gun, but was hoping to be able to use it on bigger stuff, you know, just in case one walks out in front of me when im shooting rabbits.

    i wonder if any one is using one of these?



    do you think that will be ok?

    That would do for the bunnies in parliament if that is what you are intending to hunt.
    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

    Looks like an Oerlikon round. Got a heap of them? I smell an RSA cannon getting a make-over....

    10MRT shooters do it 60 times, in two directions and at two speeds.

    Greg, be sure to tell us when your mutant rabbits get even bigger, maybe you can build something in 37mm. (20mm MK12 (A4 Skyhawk) round included for comparison.)

    yea, i was a bit worried that the 50bmg would be a little under powered.

    .308 winchester, 50bmg, 20mm oerlikon.
    i got the dies sorted.

    thats it in the press with a normal 7/8th die sitting next to it.
    powder seems to be a problem tho as it is is 410 grains per load, i am not getting too many loads out of a 1lb bottle.
    2700fps with a 2400grain projectile should be interesting from a shoulder fired rifle.
    stay tuned
