    Can arrange a spare 22 if needed. Bring your own ammo tho.

    rUSHY ,The ground is soft pumice soil and allows misses to be seen easily at times .I ranged 210-230 yards and was smacking rabbits with my .22 last year .you see the miss and wind your scope to the spot and start hitting -of course there was a lack of wind which helped .
    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question

    I don't mind going to pick them bunnies up Maca but I ain't doing it with my mouth.
    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

    block size mainly - you wouldn't get much over 300yards -so 22-223 is perfect and all that is permitted
    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question
