Caught in the Act by the Atomic XR

[L.Leon]

Shot these ten today, recovered six. All shots were sub 25 yards in the hoop house. As you can see it is a very busy environment. Was there last night after rats. Saw some healthy porkers, but my setup wasn’t allowing me any safe shots. Today I setup a new area for those rats, but it means I’m only 13 yards away. All shots with CPHPs and TP on low.

Thanks! It’s a piece of cardboard I cut a window into…

I have to say... the cardboard with the window cut out is genius for at home pesting.
Thanks for sharing!

Reminds me as a kid we would play in regenerator boxes till they were unrecognizable , they were forts / trains ,/ planes./
storm shelters / caves and now a hiding place in the war against vermin .

It was really tough seeing the porkers but not being able to shoot. I came home and confirmed POI at 13 yards. Will try again either tomorrow or Sunday night.

Thanks! They were slow to come in today. When the weather gets colder the action should pick up.
