Going slowly out of my mind with not being able to go out hunting.

Would love to get a chancve to get out and dust off the excaliber and pop a few cats or a fox or even a few bunnies.

Anyone with some property access within a couple hours of melbourne??
Would love to get onto some vineyards to clean up some pest birds

Hi all,
First blood for my tuned TX200.22 (S/H recently aquired),a nice fat crow,he was on the top branch of a tree approx 20metres from me.Dropped him with a clean chest shot. Pellet used a JSB Jumbo Express,.22,14.3 grns I think.
I would like to chrony this gun,but I reckon it could be doing 16ftp with these pellets. Scope on board is the good ol Simmons 44MAG.
Good Hunting all, Cheers Ray.

Ray,

I have a Chrony if you want to measure the velocity.

Nuthin' much unfortunately. A few cagey crows around the last couple of mornings, but unless I am hidden and waiting there is no way they will remain in sight while I load and point the R9 in their general direction. Curses!! :evil:

I really do need to get my act together and lay an ambush, though to do so will require me to leave my cumfy warm bed far earlier than I am used to these days....... must be getting soft.
