moxy 617 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 I spent a few hours at a caravan park I look after today. This week will be the only opportunity I have to thin out the rabbits, until they do the annual shut down in February. As with most places this year, the rabbit population has just gone mental. Usually you would be hard pressed to see a dozen all year round on this site. There are still part young about and even shot a milky Doe!! Absolutely crackers for September. I didn't intend to take the rapid due to the power and risk of through and through or ricochet. Some of them caravans look expensive. But in a rush this morning and not being able to find the abundance of spare orings for the BSA S10, the rapid it was. I just had to choose my shots wisely. The rabbits are everywhere, in the hedges and under the caravans. They have made themselves right at home. Although this part of the site was supposed to be closed it has the children's play area on it, which as per usual, nobody took one iota of the signs so the shooting had to be cut short until another time. They are not going anywhere and I have the land next door to look over at some point. End of match tally was 23 and a very steady and enjoyable morning. Quote Link to post
dtw 42 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Good tally there,I live and work on a caravan site never a shortage of rabbits,though at times can be frustrating to shoot; as you say people just ignore signs. 1 Quote Link to post

Not only ignored the signs and previous notifications and announcements at a site meeting but also tore through the barrier tape, and that wasn't the kids neither. Quote Link to post
