Has your barber moved town or passed away Mark?

Looks like the .22-250AI shoots very nicely. That's some quite spectacular fox carnage right there.

A few photos from last night and today

The last one is a double up of the oohmedoodle fox, but it’s worth repeating as it’s a lead in to the next one, .......

Image

................Andy-roo’s Fractured Fanny Fox. I think he may have some problem about foxes breeding 🤣

Image

Foxes shouldn’t eat spinach 🤣

Crow sploded by 20/222

Andyroo watching for a shot at the crows coming in to a bait station of guts and gizzards, 200 m to last free, he did get one

Image

Brunch yuuuummmmm

Image

His yearly quota of western rabbits

Image

His third crow..........out of 27 1/2 shots Image

Hopefully he will chuck up a few more photos, specially the ones with the handsome well built, flashy dressing old bastard 🤣

Macca, yeah mate, the load I just chucked together was ADI book max for BM2 and a 50gn proj, speed is what is quoted from their book, but I will run them over the crony when I get a chance, plus I will stoke it up a bit, purely for scientific purposes of course.

Trev, no, different joint, was where you and Kickenback sighted your rifles in when you were out here.

Marcus, what can I say but................. :kma:


Hey Andy-roo, how about using your magic moderator wand and putting this thread in a section where it belongs. :roll:

We packed up and got back to town at around 7 this evening, had a nice hot shower, Andrew really needed one, and knocked up a good feed of snags, bacon, mushrooms, jacket potatoes, carrots, corn on the cob and peas. Must nearly be time for bed, we didnt finish last night till about 3 this morning, and there was some wild animal that kept growling during what was left of the night.

Bloody 3 degrees shitty rain and a knife edge 30 k wind when I left home
Mate I stopped at Yass Service centre for fuel and lunch on the Thursday and even with a jacket froze my ass off filling up. Its like they chose the most exposed spot to put the bloody thing. Was great to see some rain there though!

And you are, remember those couple of nights in that secluded little cabin way out of town, the glowing embers of the camp fire, just you and me, all on our own, a little too much rum and ..................................oops, what happens in camp, stays in camp. :oops:
