how many do you take out?

[victor 10]

Hello all. i was out rabbit shooting with mate and we were using a .22 lr.

At first we couldnt find any bullets untill i went to another mates place and got a box of 50. i thort that would do as we werent going to be on a big proprety. any who we made trips up and back the cliffs we were shooting on and we ran out before comming home was in out mind. and we ended up wiith 9. how manny boxes or carts do you take out going on a fun night of 22 shooting?

[victor 10]

oh and by the way. none of us had shot a 22 in about 4 years and it was his gun so first time ive seen it 1 rabbit every 5 shots

i always carry 200 + for a good night those 22lr you can get throu quick.

[victor 10]

yeah i rekon., i didnt think 50 would go that quick. im going out tonight and were taking about 500 leaving 250 in car and come back for them if needed. if i can ill take a photo and post it. but usualy we skin and unt te rabbits too quick and forget about pics untill it's too late.

I suggest you spend some time zeroing...will save you a lot of ammo looking at the last ratio shots/kills!!!

Foxing, about 20 rounds normally. Five in the magazine, and the rest in a bullet wallet, I'm not ever likely to fire 20 in one night so thats plenty!

 

HMR, about the same on me and I normally leave a box in the guncase in the car. Depending on where I'm shooting that is.

 

Shotgun, depending on what I'm shooting, 50 in a cartridge bag for Pheasant. About 500-750 for Crows and Pigeon (when I get the time!!)

with the .22 rimmy 1 carry a 100 bullets or what i have in two boxes and keep another couple in the car hoping for that good night

I load up my 25-shot mag for the .22, and the 10 as well. Rarely finish the 25-shot.

 

Foxing, usually 3 in the mag, one up the spout and 10 or so reloads. If I need more than that I'm either f***ing annoyed, in which case best go home, or I've had a good night, in which case best go home

 

Deer, normally take the end of whichever box with me, but I don't really need it, if I fire 2 shots something went wrong.

Just becarefull "borrowing" ammo. If you are caught with more in your possesion than you are allowed, or have bought, you and your mate could technically fall foul

 

Just seen you are in Oz so may not apply, does over here tho'
