Shot a few loads over the chrono as I had some huge damage on 2 foxes. 1st one was smack on 100m and he was facing away at 45 degrees. I sent one into the rib cage and it exited out the front of his chest leaving a fist sized hole. The second was at 155m front on. Went for the front on chest shot an...

It was an enjoyable day for all that attended.

If you don't mind me asking where did you get the newer gamo targets from JWD?

Hehe druid. That's what happens when you shoot too many on one property. I'll be lucky to get 1-2 later this week.
I may need to look for a few new properties!

I had 5 loaded rounds left and figured I may as well shoot a group at 100 while I was mucking around with the 17 rem. I fired these one after another with no break in between. Load shoot, load shoot and so on. I was astonished at the group when I walked over to the target. It was shot using torch li...

Made up some more 25gr HP loads to try. Again they were shot using torch light as I didn't get time to do it earlier. I removed the actual target as it was raining and ruined the paper. The cardboard box was fine though and it shows the groups. This was the 23.8gr load. http://i37.photobucket.com/al...

Cheers Geoff Went out for an hour last night. Heavy fog limited vision but only saw 3 rabbits and shot 2. The tally for this narrow 5 acre property is now up to 33. The best thing about it is the owner doesn't even realise that I've shot there until I call him the day after to let him know how I wen...

Yeah the 25gr are the ones I want to shoot. I've never been a fan of the poly tipped ammo. The bullet holes look a bit funny as I had it stapled to a cardboard box that was out of shape. It has a 1 in 9 twist barrel so it shouldn't have any trouble from what I've read. I will definitely give the 25g...

I finally managed to shoot some reloads I made up. I had waited well over a month to shoot them. It was dark when I started shooting so I used my night master xsearcher (led torch) to illuminate the target. It was also about 3 degrees at the time of shooting but there was little to no wind which was...

Went for a quick shoot on a local 5 acre property. Shot 4 in a row without moving which was fun. Only 6 all up but was a fun few hour's. The near full moon was annoying. I Spooked more rabbit's than I shot. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e78/predator500bl/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150629_215205_812....

Finally got out for another shoot with a mate. I expected more but it was a good haul. The 22 royale and jsb 13.4gr are doing their job nicely. It was a bright night so the rabbit's were spooked easily within AR ranges http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e78/predator500bl/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150612...

I don't know about that camel. I'd need a 20cal haha.
Seems pretty quiet at the moment. I expected a lot more rabbits on that property. If the rain holds off tomorrow I will go to a local 5 acre property and see if I can bag a few.

We have been getting some low numbers lately. Most shoots have been under 5. That changed with a few hours on a mate's new permission. We would have had more if I didn't shoot over a couple. The 25cal Fx royale and nitesite eagle were used. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e78/predator500bl/Mobile%...

I'm yet to shoot a 20cal so I might stay away from one or my wallet maybe become lighter. Yeah it's Brendan Barry. I will be lucky to wear the barrel out that's on it, let alone a couple. I'm definitely impressed with the .17 though. Thanks for the advice on the scopes. I'm looking at the 6-18 meopr...

Cheers big G
I will give the 2207 a try and see how it goes.
8208 will also get a run but it would be good to get rid of the 2207

Thanks

Finally shot the cz on the weekend. Its only wearing a vx1 4-12 but it performed well considering no load development was done. It was 9pm on Sunday night when I finally got to shoot it. Ran the barrel in (nice and cold in Goulburn) and sighted it in at 50m. I was only shooting off a bipod but it wa...
