With the addition of power up, gun bunnies have become extremely efficient and effective. I'm currently building towards a 50pt list that includes anywhere between 5 and 7, and is run by Ossrum. Has anyone had any luck running even more than that, and if so, how many and under which caster?

You can pretty much run as many as you want with Ossrum and you will see success. It's our "easy, cheap, successful spam list". Not saying that it's not a good find, but it's a well known commodity at this point, so people are likely to know what your plan is.

I've seen people running a combination of up to 14 Gunners and Blasters.
I really like what Gunners can do but I prefer playing slightly more balanced lists.
I want to bring a ranged unit like Idrians or TGMs to put snipe on and a couple of heavies (usually drillers) because they are a credible melee threat and can threaten really far with energizer and Ossrum's feat.

I keep thinking that the idrians are going to be fantastic, but I just don't see it materializing. Herne and Jonne are amazing with FFE though.

I just bought an Ossrum list that had 6 gunners and 2 blasters in it. They are pretty darn great.

Bunnies have a weakness to high Arm.
There are a lot of Khador and Skorne builds that will be hard or impossible games if you can't somehow get an assassination. There's also similar things in other factions such as Bart, Baldur2 and Stryker1.

I have been on the "ranch" since mk3 dropped off and on. current build (in theme)
Ossrum 9 gunners 3 blasters rocky avalancher
new build for me. previous (tested) build was minus 2 gunners for driller and tinker. the theme bonuses are really good.i ran it last year at Templecon, and ran over eHaley and Abby2 with it. In the speedmachine I tried it with Gorten but it wasnt the same. Between the feat and energizer i feel like Ossrum is MEANT to run the Bunny Ranch. I have seen more aggressive builds that have more bunnies or run Scoops, but I like having a heavy or two (note 2 KD guns).

A couple of heavies really gives it a lot more flexibility. I tried an only bunny list (plus forge guard and herne and jonne) at Templecon this year, and it didn't really work as well as I would have liked. Thinking Avalancher finds a home supporting the little guys.

agreed. avalancher and Rocky give you two 12 inch knockdown guns and at least a presence in melee. Sometimes you need to melee something and the rocky can dent most things.

I am using the earthbreaker with my bunnies. I have only played two games with the list so far, but that ARM 23 on feat turn while it sits in the middle of the board blowing everything up is like, biblical level control of the board.

I've put thought into the EB list and will prolly run it in the future. I only make incremental changes to my bunny list.

I keep thinking that the idrians are going to be fantastic, but I just don't see it materializing. Herne and Jonne are amazing with FFE though. I've actually found the opposite. Herne and Jonne have been consistently underwhelming (even with FFE) and the Idrians have been amazing. I've been running between 4-6 usually, 1-2 Blasters and 3-4 Gunners. That's pretty much all I own and I don't want to buy any more since I can see the nerf bat being raised to smack them.
