Guest northernchris Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I got finished in the workshop early again today so went over to one of my farms where the farmer has been having abit of trouble with a fox.When i saw him last week he said that he had "disturbed" a fox in his conservetry eating his cats food!!!!! So for the last few days i have been putting cat and dog meat down for him So i went out again today to top up the feeding stations with meat and spotted a magie out on one of the grass parks on the way up the farm drive I ranged it at 266 yrds with the Leica's dialed some elevation and held on the right handside of him for the wind then squeezed off a 55 gr V-Max....................................... One dead Magie the shot had gone through him just above the breast bone so didnt make a mess. So i am back out tonite with the lamp to see if the cat food thief is around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6mmBR Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Nice one Chris, magpies are tricky old targets. They're not that big and rarely keep still for long. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigyboy Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I will second that Dave by far the most frustrating little buggers around never sit still. Nice shooting Chris a good shot on a hard target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest northernchris Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I thought you boys over there were more into your "Bud" than coffee??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 308Panther Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Bud ??? Dont touch the stuff. If I were to crack a one open...Its Guinness. Not much of a drinker. Seen too much. Kid brother was comin home from a Company Xmas party...Just wasted...Never called for a ride or nothin. End result was rear ending 4 vehicles. 50K in property and a bodily injury. Luckily for him,the 3 month child wasnt harmed. Sat 6 months on a 1yr jail sentence(early release for good behavior) First thing he did when he got out was crack a beer. I wanted to deck him right there. He still aint learned nothin. I'll have a Guiness only if I know I am not going anywhere, and if the company is right. It will sit in the fridge so long we end up takin it out to make room for other things. 308Panther Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
