shot 3 handy sized porkers with one 12g load of 2`s one time ..killed the three of them like nothing,mate looked at me like i was god hahahaaaaaaa

Hound hunting with an expert one day and there was a lull in activities when all of a sudden a good roo came bounding out of the bush so i said to my mate 'watch this shot graeme" and clean bowled the fucker at about 200 side on,stone motherless it was too......he is still convinced as i called it that i`m a good shot hhaaaaaa ...wont tell him the truth ever.
Bakesey i can see where you are at too mate as i have pulled a couple like that too....yeah fugg em mate just a wink will suffice eh?

Most hunters have pulled of some unbelievable shots whilst hunting. Let's have some tall tales but true.

My first ever hot-shot was two bunnies with one shot at a range of about 180yds . Nothing unusual except the second was 20yards behind and 12yds to the right of the first. I skinned that second rabbit All over to find the cause - a tiny bit of copper jacket had entered just above the right eye and penetrated the brain. It proved to me that a frangeable bullet from a 22/250 does indeed shatter to bits on contact

Bad-ass I had a cousin with a similar experience involving shooting pigs his dog had bailed up. The dog was behind the pig basically but still clear of it, yet it manged to catch a piece of copper across its brow.Not too serious.





My flukiest shot was a running shot on a small roo in the dark,(the 4 wheeler we were using for a spotlight had stalled and couldn't track it) at 50-60m, with a 22LR my grandad used to own as a kid. It was too rusty to tell if it still had any rifling and had only the back sight remaining.Everyone else had the good rifles and this one was used mainly for 'finishing'.

The shot broke its back incidentally.

Yarning to a mate today reminded me of what is probably the arsiest shot(s) I've ever taken. Roo on a claypan way, way away. Must have been the stupidest roo on the planet, so I probably did the gene pool a favour! It was one of those days where you've been mustering sheep, tired, bored, camping out, a couple of beers, etc. We see roo on the other side of a claypan. I had been bragging about my prowess, so, bets are on!! Using a star post, I put the crossahirs on it's head. Bang. Observer says shot fall 'way short. Wind the scope up to 9 and hold so that the head is about a quarterof the way down. Same thing, but getting closer. Halfway down, closer still. Finally ended up with the tips of the roos ears just visible in the bottom of the scope, dropped it with a shot to the lower chest. If memory serves, I fired 5 shots at the roo before it went down, but only 1 hit. And it didn't move the entire time! Just stood there!! That was with a 270. If anyone can estimate the range from that info, I'd love to know, cause we were too busy laughing about it to measure when we took the tojo out to get the meat for the dogs. Just remembered another classy shot my son took just recently, 325 metres according to my GPS on a crow up near Walcha. Used his 223, called the shot, and whacked the bugger in the head! Bastard!
