Title: Help me and my boy get into some rabbits?
Post by: Weresquatch on December 21, 2016, 10:18:16 PM: Hello everyone!

My son was just given an old .22 for an early present by his grandfather. The same rifle he was given when he was the same age (an old Winchester 69a). We live in East Vancouver and I would love to take him out to hunt for some rabbits. I haven't done that since I was a kid myself. Any suggestions on where to go? I'm willing to travel a bit. Thank you so much in advance for your help!
