    well not one but two charlies shot beside each other
    was walkin down a field grass up to me waist nearly in most parts lookin for rabbits and i seen two crows on a post at end of the field so i said to myself id walk towards the gate and jump over it then sneak up on them but as i got to the gate 3 foxes got up bout 15 metres away from me in the shorter grass
    one(looked like a big dog fox) ran under the gate and one stopped at the gate
    up went the shotty bang! dropped her and the other ran for the bushes and before he got in bang! again and dropped him
    delighted that i got not one but two and even happier that it was with the shotty
    enjoy and atb

    Great gun they and yeah not heavy at all I find I can swing and pull into a bird a lot easier than with the likes of a beretta or a baikal

    funny how this is nearly a year later and i had only said it to my mate that il get one with the shotty. gotten some in last month but this one i was after for a while near the horses at the shed id seen her a few times but couldnt get clean shot.
    so spent a while callin her and nothing so gave up and walked through a gap in field and there she was on other side of ditch i was calling from eating a leather shoe!! ( certain people have been dumpin rubbish on this land i wont mention them)
    anyway 30 yard shot with number 5 and down she went. reckon shes last years cub or else a small vixen.
    i put the cartridge in her mouth as seen lads using bullets on this in the mouth lol and mate got rabbit with the 22.

    She is kinda small, but still nothing better than a fox with the shottie.

    Is it raining down your way. Was gonna head out but it started here about 7 and hasn't stopped yet.

    Probably, but at the moment i have a choice.

    Comfortable track bottoms, mug of cha, and Duck Dynasty on the box or a wet night walking through sh*t covered fields. :D

    Ah they are all repeats at the moment. Season 3 is over. So just repeats. Absolutely love that show. Funny as hell. If I won the lotto I'd move to Baton Rouge. Grow and beard and sleep in me camo :)
    Snakes would p1ss me off though

    Repeats or not still about the only thing worth watching.

    It;s still early. Might take a notion and head on out later, and maybe catch a few early morning rabbits/foxes. Decisions.

    Anyway, nice shooting. The .22. What mod is that?
