bigmac 97kt 13,836 Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 blankity blank Well went to the factory perm last night with nelly the sole purpose was to get nelly his first rabbit we came across the first three and off they went so we lay in wait after 15mins one came back out and as i could not see it as it was on a apex of a bend in the field Nelly was trying to get me to see it and it ran off as it seen him moving . So a telling off was given i told him if one comes out dont bother waiting for me to see it JUST SHOOT THE BLOODY THING LOL Any way off we went again and came across two making babys but they sussed us and they ran for cover we went through the hedge and i saw one at 50yrds took aim and missed story of my life lol then the next field was lifting with them from top to bottom the first one ran so we lay in wait again 20mins later and it came back out once again i told nelly to take the shot even thro i had the cross hairs on target and by the time he switched his nv on it took off again then the rest followed so we headed back to the tanks on the way we came across one at about 12yrds if that i took aim and missed twice looks like im having another bad spell again . So we went on to the factory grounds now usually there are loads but only saw five (mixy has hit them hard on here) right we came across the first two sitting happily munching away i told nelly to take the shot again he took four shots and missed again so we went for another wander and when we came back the two were out again yes thats right he missed again . called it a night after that lads but had a good night out any way atvbjimmy :thumbs: 5 Quote Link to post

walshie 2,804 Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 He might have missed but you missed one at 12 yards. Quote Link to post
just-A-snap 1,269 Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Anyway off we went again and came across two making baby's but they sussed us and they ran for cover. No power on Earth would have stopped me mac, would have taken a Tin of Pellet up the Jacksie, if not more. Out and about, clean air going into ones bloodstream, exercise and with good company, YES. Then all is well with the world and time well spent.All the very best Quote Link to post

RSVNelly 518 Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 It was a good night even though I buggered it up ?? Cheers Jimmy???? It was completely my fault, I thought I was zeroed but I wasn't! No excuses however I tried to zero in bright sunlight with the Photon, as it turned out, not well at all. Hopefully it's been sorted today ??? 1 Quote Link to post

mattwhite 1,993 Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 I wouldn't worry about it lads. You would have pi#@ed yourself laughing at the shots I have just missed. Zeroed at home and Hatty was bang on the money. On the golf course I missed 4 sitters......1 had mixy and I still couldn't hit him!!!(the air was well and truly blue) We must all have been jinxed??? 3 Quote Link to post

That actually made me laugh out loud Matt I remember once getting 3 shots at a sitter - missing it every time. As soon as I opened my gob and started effing and blinding, 2 more closer rabbits legged it Quote Link to post

I've been there mate. I put a post up a while back when I kept blanking. I even pulled my HW100 back by the barrel, ready to lob it into the trees. My shooting buddy nearly put me on my arse that night Quote Link to post
