I don't really think you have the slightest idea how mean rabbits are over here.. They gases 1 "one" warrren then dug it up and pulled 120 rabbit from it.. then theres another one 50m away and so on.."in places"   Posted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 9:14 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho i'm not so much for shootin' bunnies but i know NZ is over run with 'em. i do believe in population control. i ate one when i was a kid. i liked it when i thought it was chicken. mom lied to me. what pellet are you using and at what velocity? do they go all the way through? _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 9:50 pm kanyon Silver Status Member Joined: 09 Aug 2008 Posts: 1582 Location: New Zealand sniper wrote: i'm not so much for shootin' bunnies but i know NZ is over run with 'em. i do believe in population control. i ate one when i was a kid. i liked it when i thought it was chicken. mom lied to me. what pellet are you using and at what velocity? do they go all the way through? Normaly use 28g Eun jins or 21g H&Ns on full power giveing 50+ fpe..... but this time was useing 14.5g JSB Exact Express on the 900fps setting as I could only get a 2400psi fill from the argon bottle.. Next time..If I remeber" I will take a pic of what happens to a big warren..when the rain colapes it then it be comes a water channel that cuases the hill side to slip.. some are so close the the surface that the weight of a cow can colasps it..then the cows stuck waiting to die.. seen a few old warrens with cow skeltons in them... Every 6 rabbits reduce the sheep stocking rate by 1 sheep.. As a rabbit will starve a sheep as they eat the grass so low that a sheep can't get it chopper on it.. So I just shoot them because I can at times...

I can kill 7 or 8 a day and barely make a dent. I'd rather have robins and cardinals, so killing starlings is the only way to do it. Starlings will also take over feeders to the point that no other bird can get to them. I'm just surprised the trash man hasn't noticed. lol I do dispose of them in walmart bags though so maybe he just thinks their diapers because that's the same way I get rid of poopy ones. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that?
