First Grounhog of the year!!
« on: April 08, 2008, 06:36:54 PM »
I shot my first groundhog of the year this afternoon.  Many to follow this year.  I am shooting a Stainless Savage 110 with an accutrigger.  It is chambered in 204 Ruger, with a 4-16 Redfield and  40 gr. Hornady factory loads.  Last year I shot a bunch of hogs with this combo.  204 Ruger has been great, Quick kills out to 250yds and the groundhogs around here avg. around 10 - 12lbs.  How's everybody else doing so far?

I got out yesterday and got 4. seen a lot more but couldn't get the shot. I use a .223 with 52gr BTHP match bullets. My farthest one this year was 238yds.
 My partner uses a .204 with 34gr HP. He got 2 yesterday.
 We still have all summer yet to beat our record of 425yds,which was measured with a laser range finder,However, getting a windless day is few and far between. :(
