Got a Webley venom Viper (Webley Raider) Yesterday and took it hunting today. Got two half grown rabbits both at 20 meters. It's got a shrouded barrel but its really loud !!!
This shot is my hide /blind
and heres the rabbits. both not big enough for the pot but on this shoot the rabbits are a real menace its a horse place and the owners concerned about horses putting their feet down rabbit holes and breaking a leg so pest controls the name of the game here and i shoot what ever i can.

| Hey, even if you are doing it just to keep the numbers down I's still a good day to shoot. Better than sitting in front of the idiot box watching your IQ slowly sink. |

| Took the gun out again got a rabbit and wood pigeon on another shoot (small holding) Shot the pigeon from a hide whilst waiting for rabbits which didnt show then stalked along a fence line which was overgrown . Crawled about two hundred meters or so popping up every so often for a look into the field which had been cut for grass. saw a few rabbits trot in then when looking up at a junction where a few fence posts met saw a rabbit fifteen meters awy and unaware of my presence - now a rabbit pie !!!! |

| What kind of scope are u using? Ammo? It sounds like you are using a really nice setup. Rabbit stew is right up there with squirrel stew as one of my faves! |

He Todd
I am using Air Arm diablo pellets which are normal dome shape ones .The scope I bought second hand Its a Simmons Philippine made 3.5-10 x 50 and its great very clear , i leave it on x5 mag and that seems pretty good at all ranges out to 30 meters and means you can quickly find your pests as it's still a lowish magnification. The rifle came with a Simmons Deer fied scope (china) which was good but not nearly as good as the Philippine made one.This rifles shooting half inch groups at 30 meters and is very good |
