Big Bores and the PD shoot!
« on: January 14, 2005, 07:47:37 PM »
Just was wondering if anybody is going to take a big bore out west to try at the prairie dogs?
Been thinking of taking the 44 mag. barrel, along with the 223 just to see if I can lob a heavy bullet and hit one of them PD's.
If the wind is up these heavy bullets might buck the wind pretty good.
What do ya'll think???

I can always bring along my 1895GS for giggles if I can make it :)  :) I'm sure a 300 grain Nosler would take down the mighty PD...

You guys sure are gluttons for punishment. You gonna shoot those things 500 times a day like Wes said we might get shots? Not this old fat boy. My doctor told me I shouldn't be shooting anything but rimfires until I get the shoulder surgery I need.

I'll have a rimfire along for sure, a .223 and likely a 6MM Rem. and of course the H&R .30-30 as it's the only gun I own that fits what these forums are about.  :lol:

Hey Dennis, I tried to call you at 9:00 PM and got no answer. Wondered if you'd gone to bed already. Since you were on so late I reckon you just weren't home. You gonna be around today for me to call?

If I can get my sawed-off Pardner 12 gauge barrel scoped and sighted in before then I am thinking seriously about bringing it just for a few shots before they get leary and hole up on us at the close ranges. The 30-30 with some lighter bullets will be next and then for the lo-oooo-ng range dogs.........well I haven't decided yet.........maybe a 25-06 with 87gr. bullets. Maybe a .223 or .243, just don't know yet. Heck I may load up some 110 grainers for my 30-06 Vanguard.............chunks............bullet chunks or PD chunks one, huh?  :)

I think I'll bring my 44 mag. barrel for the close shots. 223 barrel for out to 200,220 Swift in my Ruger for the really longshots. I think I'll load some 110 gr's one's for my 300 Wby. to about 3800 fps. just for giggles. Also I may load some 125 gr.XTP's for my 357 Herret,and carry my 22 match grade barrel for the Contender. Sounds like there's going to be a  lot of powder burned in the panhandle. Digger

I'm with GB on this one.  You don't want to shoot a big banger that many times.

NOW....having said that :grin:   I have shot some smallish critters with a 300 grain hollow point from my 45-70.  It makes big peices into little peices :-D

Deadeye, that MV stop with all that ammo and guns would make a hilarious traning flick, I can see it now with the guns and ammo all laid out on the ground and you guys sitting in a circle with cuffs on while the lone trooper figures out what the heck was going on, chances are if he is a Trooper he's probably a shooter or hunter anyway but it would look serious!!!....<><.... :-D
