british bulldog Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 We returned to the farm today with the Hare problem( I counted 42 in one field last week!!!) one last time before the crops get too high ,and after Frank666 popped a brace with his Remi .223 a hare was spotted sitting tight a long way out,I ranged it at about 500yds and dailed in the scope with the help of exbal.I took the shot aiming off for wind 8 inches,with frank spotting,the hit was a perfect chest shot. I walked out and ranged back to the tree we were under when I took the shot-506yds Rifle is my Remington 700 6mmBR built my dasherman. scope-6.5-20x40 leupold load-105gr A-max,29gr varget. rangefinder-leica 900lrf BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveW Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Congratulations British Bulldog, sounds like you both had a great time. That's a lot of hares, do you find they attract unwanted attention ??? Cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
