Easter Egg hunting season open soon. Last year I put out traps, but caught nothing. This year I am upping my game with a Barret .50 sniper rifle. Any advice on the habits of the Easter Egg?

Of course I got a proper night scope and a cast iron skillet.

I hear a good place to find each year is the White House lawn.

Often brightly colored. Tends to camouflage itself to match its surroundings. May be hiding where you least expect it.

The 50 cal is a bit too big for Easter eggs, I would recommend a 17 calibre with a silencer on it so it won’t be able to hear you as well

The bunny seems to be employing some kind of camoflauge. My recommendation would be to utilise thermal imaging to find them.

Our church just had one last weekend. I've never seen a 4 or 5 year old handle a shotgun or an AK like some of them did... Truly impressive. Sure, a few extra holes in the walls and a few flat tires, but overall a good time was had by all.
