Bunny Safari - 01/01/09
I went out the day after Christmas with my dad and we did a quick morning hunt. We had intended to go after coyotes but the first place we saw coyotes we also came across a pretty heavy concentration of Jacks, so we ended up staying there for a couple of hours and thinning the herd.
The weather was pretty cold and windy. I would guesstimate the windchill factor in the high -teens to low -20s. In fact my S&W 29-2 .44 froze up and the cylinder would not rotate after I took a dive in the deep snow. I had to stick it on the dash with the defroster on to get it to unthaw.
I ended up using my .308 Tikka after that for a few of them. I only had a limited amount of .308 ammo so we only took 50 or so rabbits. I snapped a few pics of a few bunny piles.
