Been a long time since my last hunt but I managed to get a gap last night. Tally was 2 possums and 4 rabbits.

Look carefully on the forestock of the rabbit picture and you can see the Crow Magnum that ended its life. It was half out the otherside and I pulled it out for the pic. Only got these pics because someone forgot to charge the camera batteries.

The Crosman puts out 650fps at 9 deg celsius to around 750fps at 20 deg celsius. Thats with 16gr pellets. I was using Crow Magnums at 18gr. It was probably around 10-12 deg last night if not colder. The rabbits I got were between 20 and 30 yrds. The two possums around 15yrds. I was shooting on the local golf course that I have exclusive rights on.

Sweet deal. Do they let you play for free? LOL. I forgot; it's winter down there now? 9 degrees Celsius is about 28 degrees F? Too cold for me.

Yeah. I'm from South Africa originally and it is ussually warmer than down here. I've been here for 6 years and I'm still not used to the weather. I do free airgun pest control on a couple golf courses and lifestyle blocks. I've also got a 500 acre farm to play on. Lately my biggest problem getting out is free time. Too busy organising a comp, sorting out my guns and work.
