There's going to be a lot less come Thursday Night :lol: and we might back up for a Friday shoot too. :D I reckon I could have shot another 100 without too much fuss, the bloody things were everywhere, I wasn't even bothering to shoot the ones at 20 or 30m away, they just sat there whilst their mates were getting smashed :lol:

They are indeed funny little buggers, we smashed up a fair few again to day, one of em my mate had 3 shots at with his 222 before it finally decided to seek cover. :lol: talk about bloody clueless.

We've only just walked in the door 10mins ago, so time for beddy bys! :D

We had an unsuccessful dear hunt a while ago and ended up sitting over a big rabbit warren we found for a while instead.

Even with the boom, boom, boom of a couple of .308's going off periodically 70-80 metres away they keep sticking their heads up.

Yeah a mate and I were sitting next to a warren only about 10m away shooting at another warren about 120 or 130m away and the young rabbits would just sit there :lol:

My mate had a shot one the other day and it sat there with bullets flying around it (3 shots before it buggered off) :unknown: others see you coming and run like hell :lol:
