Nice hour out (Varminting video)
Hi Guys,
Went out on one of the farms last night, with my .223Ackley Improved not my .204R , keeping an eye out for the crows while the sheep are lambing, not a bloody crow in site! :Facepalm:
Caught and shot this rabbit and pigeon on camera, not my usual long range, rabbit 240 yards, simple shot, just dialed out 1.5 MOA for a half value 12 mph wind from the left to right. The pigeon was a similar shot, 265 yards with the same windage values and direction.
Enjoy guys.

Do the crows peck at newborn lambs? I didn't know that.

He'll yeh mate, I have seen them sit on a sheeps back that is giving birth waiting for the lamp to pop out, in some often cases the crow has the eyes and tonge pecked of the lamp just as the lambs head is visable out of the sheep's f@₩₩y. Eveil Eveil little basards, gives me great satisfaction sending these little bastards in all directions with a 39 grain SBK Or 80 grain Amax ! Lol
If you guys find the videos interesting ill do some more videos and share them, also to subscribeto my channel on YouTube to stay upto day with new videos.
