    Central Otago has heaps of places where you'll be fine plinking as long as you're sensible and safe about it. Call the local DOC office (probably Alexandra) for a rimfire permit for rabbit shooting as well as the regular hunting permit which only covers centrefire rifles and medium/large game.

    Thanks for that. Maybe I can clarify something here too...

    The blue highlighted area abeam the Kingston end of the Wakatipu is the DoC Remarkables/Nevis hunting block, on which I'll need a hunting permit. What about the non-DoC land surrounding it? What kind of permit do I need (if any) to shoot on that area? It's public land but it isn't a specified DoC conservation area or hunting block.
