276 Yard Rabbit Shot

[dangaff]

My mate shot a rabbit, 276 yards( laser ranged)
I know its not all that far, but its a start with a shot out barrel and factory ammo.

Winchester Model 70 Heavy Varmint
Leupold 4.5-14x50 Vari-X
Winchester Super X - .222 Remington

Thought i would chuck a photo of a fox in too

Enjoy!

Just being a dink here but......

I don't think the rabbit shot should count. Per sniper hide rules you should have put at least 5 shots into it for it to be recorded/posted/discussed., etc.

Good shootin'!

Tell your mate "nice shot" dangaff, My shooting mate has the Win HVB in 222 as well as one in 243. Bloody nice rifles and a super accurate round. I am from Wang just up the Hume a bit more from you. Plenty of bunnies around at the moment. Hopefully the Mixo and Calicee stay away and we can continue to shoot over the spring/summer. Top shot.
