Suppressed rabbit shooting! New Zealand

Post by geoff23 »

Took A drive to central otago (NZ) last weekend. Which is only an hour and 20mins away, for some more shooting at those bunnies which we seem to have A few of. My Suppressed ruger 204 v/t came along for the ride to of course plus my no1 in 223 loaded under 40grain vmax,s. Try ed videoing A few shot,s again, Most were only about 200 meters give or take. Mostly the camera was set on 36 power. Don,t really know my way around the windows movie maker editor program yet! But I gave it A bloody good go! . This is what I ended up with!.. What do ya think?

Good going fella, quite a few rabbits there. Not sure about the shot/rabbit at 56 seconds though...these bullets can travel 3-4 mile if no back stop is present.

I can assure you Steve it was A safe shot! as it,s difficult it see the hole picture from a narrow field of view from A camera some times. Safety is away first for me!
