Very poor I'm afraid
Got 4 but only managed to get this one on video, and you only just see the kill . Camera was trying to focus on the hedge, and it looked alot worse on the camera screen than it was. It was luck really that the rabbit was in the frame......
Very easy shot at about 25-30 yards.

I wouldn't be so hard on yourself. We saw the shot and we've got an idea of the terrain you hunt. Thanks for posting.

Hi Paul,

When you go out and do things, you find all the annoying things that try to mess ya up. Good job. And thanks for posting.



Gary

good shot regardless.

Great post, tell us about he others that didn't get away! I just read today about the dropping number of small game hunters and the reader reminded the magazine that marketing plays a big roll in what hunters seek. There has been a drought in the hunting mags about small game. I think sometimes we are guilty of the same. Let's all post some small game hunt stories and pics/videos. Makes me wish I was in the southwest so I would have some jackrabbits to chase. I'll be looking for some pest species to go after.

Thanks again for the post,

Kent,

You might be able to import some big rats or groundhogs into your area. I suspect your fellow landowners would appreciate the effort! hehhe.

Just trying to help!

Gary

Hehehe. Got the general idea...adds to the reality of it all!
This similarly rough movie taken on a small digital camera by a friend recorded my first big bore kill, a small goat using my 909. Captures the thrill of the hunt!

Hey Neil,

"Nasty Beasty" indeed! Those things will rip ya up proper!!

Nice job! And ya lived to hunt another day. Thanks for the post;

Gary

Gary, I was referring to the 909, not the poor wee goat!!........this was the first time my hunting companions had been exposed to a big bore airgun, and they were amazed how it knocked the goat over....I think one of them says "That sat down quick" or something similar.

Neil,
That goat that dropped on the spot took a Barnes Raptor didn't he?

Sure did Jerry!

Thanks guys.
Other 3 rabbits, shooter had LOS but the camera operator did not
Still got to get the camera mounted on the rifle, things will be somewhat easier then...

Thanks for the post Neil. Mmmmmm bigbore

Paul, all I can say about a big bore is don't touch one...as soon as you do it's all over and you'll never be the same again!
