Prairie Dog H&R rifle gets it's acknowledgement
« on: May 22, 2011, 06:47:53 AM »
In the June issue of Outdoor Life Magazine (not yet online) there is a one page article on page 45 by Bryce M. Towsley in which he lists the top 4 rifles that are a prairie dogs worst nightmare. One of his picks is a H&R 1871 Ultra Varmint Thumbhole Stock model. For prairie dogs his caliber of choice would be the .22-250.
It's nice to see the mainstream appreciate and acknowledge these fine guns.

I also posted this in the Centerfire section but I wanted to be sure it was seen by the Prairie Dog guys...

Thanks Andy . I just finished today loading up the last 500 22-250 for my trip in June this 500 is all for fireforming in the 1-9" 24"fluted 22-250AI rechamber. Only taking 3 H&R's this yr the .204 .223 and the 22-250AI. Yes they do work very well for the little vermin. Kurt

Yep, I've been working with my BB .223 the last couple days, and it's beginning to amaze me after I've found it's favorite load....
 
Might make this shaky old man look good after all..... ;D
