Default .17 fireball Down under,

I have been back in New Zealand for the summer, shipped down the Cz 17 hornet and a sako L46 in .17 fireball,
Been doing a bit of small game hunting with them both, Mates son recon's the fireball is the greatest, Had him out fir his fist small game with the small centerfires, 30 rabbits, few hares, couple cats, dozen possums and a deer for the weekend, and a catch up at his parents farm after couple years, great weekend,
Both have been threaded and fitted with a moderator, (silencer).
few photos.



Hare,

Hare and rabbit.

young fallow deer, shot with the fireball, 25gr HP, shot while rabbit hunting,

Gee, that hare looks almost as big as the fawn!
Good deal, great training for the boy.
Glad you're both having lots of fun.
Fine pictures, thanks for sharing with us.

We usually wait until those little guys grow up some before we shoot them. Larry
