Something else interesting to note...
I've shot, skinned and dissected a lot of rabbits.
I've never seen a flea (or a tick) on a rabbit.
First rat Ive dissected and it had a flea...

Which are the 10 grainers in your later posts Pete? JSB or Spyda slugs? Or something else?

Your field testing ballistics is really interesting. And your standard shooting is upright with a shooting stick? I'm trying to figure out how to get accurate on my feet without doing some weight training but I have an allergy to gymnasiums  LOL

And I'm going to do some shooting sitting and also standing with my camera mono and tripods.

Hi Mark,
The 10grainers are JSB Knockouts.
The smallest .177 slug Spyda can do is a 13.4gr. Would be good for benches and hunting where over penetration is not an issue.
Ja, I walk the paddocks carrying my rifle in one hand and my shooting sticks in the other, and when I find a bunnie I quietly set up the sticks and take the shot while standing.
Sitting, or heaven forbid, lying down to shoot rabbits is only good for youngsters and yoga participants, and in paddocks with short grass.
I stand and shoot πŸ˜‚

TWO shooting sticks - good on ya that's almost bench rest shooting and sounds like a good idea.

But maybe I need to go to the gym and you need to go to stretch classes young man. WinkLOL

But seriously, how do you shoot when testing pellets/slugs? Always with the shooting sticks?

You sure have no trouble getting decent groups...

πŸ˜‚
When I’m out walking/working I carry one set of shooting sticks.
They are called Primos Trigger sticks. It’s a tripod with quick release legs.
Nothing better when it comes to quickly and quietly setting up for a shot somewhere out in the field.
If I’m testing pellets or slugs on rabbits (for terminal ballistics), out in the field, I’m standing and shooting over the trigger sticks.

If I’m testing pellets or slugs for groupings on paper targets, I shoot from a bench rest.
I dare say it would be near impossible to shoot a one hole group at 40, standing over shooting sticks 😳
That would be an impressive achievement.
Maybe our next challenge??? πŸ€”πŸ˜‰
