tegater 789 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 It's nice when you get one you've been after for a long time, and put a lot of work into. Well done. Quote Link to post
remington700 0 Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I took him with a 243 .100gr bullet My bolt in the 22 broke last year when i had him in my scope then just before xmas i missed him so he was getting smart to the lamp.I lamped him on tuesday and he ran but when i lamped a rabbit beside him he came back for it .so i got him...The farmer lost 4 lambs in 1 night as he thought it was safe to bring them out as they were big enough at a month old .so he maybe has a mate running around..
