damn good idea bazza. take the pressure off the local baitfish..

Maybe someone could invent a new soft plastic called "holy wiggly rabbit" made out of real rabbit meat....

now theres a biodegradable non plastic soft plastic.

I'm sure I could bring a collection of livies if required - they may be missing the odd body part, and sure to act distressed .. no probs on the berley tho - should be able to make plenty - I could even fur wrap the bombs so they "feel" warm to touch.... perhaps leaving some ears exposed as handles..

You need a decent suppressor then.Look up http://www.sub-silentsuppressors.com/   Hes a engineer in the waitaks who makes them and they miles ahead of anything you wil ever buy in the shops.his are patented as well. I use 2 of his custom made jobs, one on my 17hmr and another on my .22 lr and the one on the 17hmr brings it down to just below high velocity .22 lr un-suppressed cracks.These ones i have are worth every cent and look awesome to boot on my new CZ.

Dunno why they like the .17's in Auckland council, too expensive and loud compared to the others.  Its a nice gun to shoot, just really loud and hopeless in any sort of crosswind at range."
 
Its the bullet itself that is so attractive to the council.It specificall designed over seas to be shot in built up areas to control vermin,as the bullet destroys itself (and target0 on impact and no chance of going through the target and on into a house or person.You can use them on rats and they dont come out the other side,try that with even a sunsonic .22.The rounds are more expensive and not even worth firing on a windy day if aiming over 70 metres, but out to 150 metres they are dead accurate and lethal,even on goats.
If you think you are too small to make a difference,try sleeping with a mosquito in your tent.

I would love to shoot rabbits. Unfortunately I am nowhere near Auckland - east of Rotorua. Anyone with a rabbit problem around Rotorua, give me a ring.

Would have thought there were far more down your way than up here.
