gaz6br Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Started with the show Saturday that was real good, I knew today was better weather for plinking Left the house at 7, met up with my mate for breakfast, then we headed over to the first farm for a quick zero check then some pigeon plinking. Plenty about and nice steady shoots from 180-220 yards. Mate using his 223 and me my 223 ackley. After we had a good few we head to another farm for so crow and magpie fun. We shot a few birds driving about on kobota for decoys Plus we had shot some crows that we put out in the field and the odd rabbit best shot for me was 278 yard magpie and my mate had a crow at 238 so all was good We have just stopped plinking now and waiting for a fox on one of the free range chicken farms we do as it's being a pain Let you no later if we get the result :/ That busy with shooting vermin not put my new gongs out for a play still like new and that can't be right lol Won't stay like it for long Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5R-Twist Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hi Gaz Good day out well done Why is it we like shooting vermin with a fast bullets I still find it great sport to shoot rabbits up to 300yds with 58gr vmax 243. I find it builds confidence in yourself and your gun. Hope the fox played ball for you. Rgds Viv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris-NZ Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 What metal are those swingers made from Gaz? The 58 V-Max would be fair zipping along and would deal death and destruction to mild steel. Had my son out on maggies etc on the weekend. He took his .260 for a little play. Those 95 V-Max are devastating- a centre hit on a maggie at about 100yds blew the rear third about 20' away. A plover met a similar fate at about 200- one wing ended up over 10' from the remains. Neither would known what had hit them. Same I guess for the five rabbits I bought home- the back ends were still OK for catfood. Can't wait to get that suppressed 6BR running..
