  1. had 2 pigeons with 1 shot loads, and also 2 rabbits with 1 shot a few times
  2. nice going! good to get them maggies, specialy when u been after them for a while.
  3. hi, as said above u can get multishot kits for them. you dont NEED a multishot for hunting but they make life easier, for example, if you have 2 or 3 rabbits out, shoot 1 and another stops on the edge of it burrow and its still in range you can reload and shoot it quickly, with a single shot it takes a lot longer.
  4. keep the 303!!! it wont let you down, if u aint to good with it then get some practice in with it, practice makes perfect and all that.
  5. what deer was it, muntjac or something of a simualr size?
  6. nice one mate, specialy as iv read u aint been seeing many of late
  7. i also got nothing with mine, i think all the aproved land info is stored on the computers
  8. nice shooting there, 45 with beign picky about which rabbits you shoot aint bad going atall, well done
  9. hi, i dont think i have over stretched any springs but might have done, had it a fair while! i will give the tape wrap ago and see if we get far with it
  10. nnice shooting, i was also out for a wonder last night and only picked 3 out of the 9 that i shot! i couldnt find them for the same reason as you, the grass was too long
  11. over in england we dont have game licences any more! the reason hares are shot to keep dog men away is to keep the land quiet so that the game birds wont be ditrurbed and in turn, the game shoots ruined, i think. hares can legaly be shot in the summer months but cannot be sold, but the can be sold in the game season.
  12. I go along with all of that, my main one runs at 26ft lb so it's a bit of a cheat compared to many and it doesn't come out too often, only as work dictates. Just started doing bunny work at a cemetery and MUST be air rifle, so may pictures, urns, flowers, lights, etc ..and of course plenty of Headstones. Anyway, I'm knocking down the bunnies commonly at 40-50 yards with head shots and watching the acrobatics as they leap 2 feet in the air and do a double back summersault...yep, they can be very effective, and frankly very rewarding, when you know you need to rely of fiedlcraft and skil
  13. i have stalked with in 10 yards of rabits and shot them as a test to see how close i could get, i do take some longer shots on skitish rabbits that start to know what i am doing, but only with a bipod on. i can take rabbits every time at 45-50 yards on a still day with a bipod on, but i dont, gets more adrenalin going when you get in close! other day i was practcing in my garden shooing at 60 yards, was able to constantly shoot 3/4" groups and did a couple of 1/2" groups, 3 shots. that was with a AA S410 carbine in .22. if i want to shoot longer range rabbits i get the rimmy out, can go out be
  14. i like a bit of mag for longer shots, i can go upto 20. i usualy shoot on the lowest setting though, 6.5, u get plenty of light, fast target acquisition and the exaggerated movement aint bad at all.
  15. hi all, i have a harris bipod which i love as it makes my shots all that much steadier, only porblem is, when i put it on my rimfire and have the legs folded up it 'twangs' when u fire. is there anything i can do to stop this, atm i just leave the legs down all the time but they get in the way sometimes
  16. go onto opticswarehouse.com you can view scopes bu there magnification and there is a whole range of prices on there
  17. good idea would a owl decoy work in the same way? a big one mabey, i have a little owl decoy and that does them once they see it but its a bit on the small side to be realy effective.
  18. nice shooting, horse padocks can be awsome places to hunt, ful of rabbits and it seems that ur new persision is ne exception! try using the horses as cover to hide form the rabbits, can be fun
  19. nice shooting, my golf course is pretty much the same as yours, decimated by mixi, i also shoot a fait bit of land surrounding it so i was able to see how fast it spreads and it does spead fast. but they are making a come back so i might have to take another look soon
