We spent five great days afield with our 204's, HMR's, and my 20 Vartarg here in Oregon. Weather was about perfect, rats were everywhere on about every field we shot. Here's a few pics of the adventure.
My Cooper 20VT taking a break during the action.
Pretty simple setup: Park truck, set up bench, teach squirrels to fly. Ruby my Basset Hound puppy goes in the truck during firing, but throws a fit is she doesn't get to come. So now she goes virtually everywhere with me.
As this pic shows, it was "mound city" in this field. I think that morning, I fired just over 200 rounds downrange. Hit ratio was right at 96% thanks to little or no wind.
My buddy "Rat Force One", or Dan as he's known to others, working over the rats with his M700 in 7.62 at just over 600 yards. Seems he had a bunch of 150gr A-Max that just needed shooting up.
I took my custom M700 11-twist with me, but had so much fun shooting the 20VT, it never came out of its case.
But THAT will be remedied next trip out. 
Oh, almost forgot....Ruby's little sister finally came home last week. Lily is 8 weeks old, and her big sister is now 8 months old. What a hoot watching these two play together!
What fun, hound dogs running about the place once again!
There's a pile of fired brass on my bench now, ready for the vibratory tumbler. I'm pretty sure that brass will stay empty until the snows of winter descend upon me once again. Nothing like a good cup of morning joe on a cold winter day to help the reloading process in the warmth of my gun room with my pups. With the current temps here around 95* lately on the high desert, winter is starting to sound purty good to me!
