Went out to my lease to do a little pest control. Unfortunately, allowed my feeders to run dry so headed out for a little walk about and came across a Coyote mousing out in the pasture. Popped him at 90 yards but didn't judge the distance correctly. Think I hit him low and decided not to follow it into the brush. My brother and I went out to collect a few cotton tails and boy was that fun. There were rabbits everywhere. We quit after harvesting 8 of them. Man with the thermal they really don't have anyplace to hide! Here is my set-up, AirForce Condor with a Custom Valve, Hammer, Spring and a .257 cal barrel.


Here are the bullets I was using.


They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason! nidea

That is a nice piece of equipment right there. I come from Louisiana where all we did was run dogs and use shotguns. Since coming to TX I've really wanted to get into thermal with a good piece equipment. Great job!

Those are the right size for some fried rabbet and gravy.

Any baffles in that barrel, or is it solid. Looks like it might be loud.

That's a R&L Shroud with 4 baffles over a 28" TJ's 257 cal barrel. Very quit. About 60fpe at 65 yards.
