Feral cat meets an Fx royale

Post by lawsie »

I was out shooting some rabbits with a mate and near the end of the night we came accross a feral cat. She was probably hunting the same thing we were but made the mistake of looking at us for slightly too long. She copped the 18gr jsb straight between the eye's and was out for the count. I paced it out at 45 yards which was within a few of my zero and that pellet had hit exactly where I aimed.

Cheers

Well done
She looks to be a fair size as well.

Cheers
I was surprised with the lack of nerve movement on this one. I've blasted a few head shots with powder burners and the majority flip about all over the place.

Nice work fella, the only thing I can see lacking is the eye popping like when they are hit by a 17 or 20 cal centrefire. Though yours doesn't seem to be as messy.
