Evening gents , @Bob Nelson 35Whelen and I were recently having a private conversation and the subject of weird game animals came up. After we got done laughing we decided to pose the question to the rest of the class.

So hear it goes: what’s the weirdest animal you’ve shot and what with?

p.s. this is all done in good fun and ment to lighten the mood.
 
Boss Baboon with a Ruger 375...This primate would have been magnificent on my wall...and sparked endless debates...however the 300gr accubond left little for the taxidermist to work with...I want another

Mate the weirdest thang I ever shot was my sabre tooth field mouse. I was just retiring to bed when the mate heard a blood chilling roar.Immediately I grabbed the only gun I had at the time, the mighty 22 Flintstone eye bunger. The mate switched on his head torch and there caught in the beam at a range of 50 yards was the biggest bastard of a sabre tooth field mouse I had ever seen. Fortunately the old Eyebunger was spot on at that range and I let loose on the fearsome beast. After the dust and smoke settled all that was left was a tail and a bloody big hole in the ground. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me on th at trip, maybe next time. The old Eyebunger was just to much gun maybe next time I'll have to use my 14 Walker Hornet, I might be able to skin one then to show you.
Geeze mate just woke up I might have to lay off the Bundy and stick to vegemite sandwiches. It gives you horrible night mares.
I think I might need to get bush and do some real hunting instead of drinking Bundy and having weird dreams.

that looks like the proper way to store a snake, I can’t for the life of me understand people who want to keep on as a pet.
He’s my pet alright. If you zoom in you can see him in his cage above the door. ;)

And why is it I “hear” what you write in John Wayne’s voice? Lol

If Bob is drinking what I’m thinking Bob is drinking then yes I’m drinking what Bob is drinking. I think everyone should drink what Bob drinks. :)

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
