I shot 2 more groundhogs today. :wink: The one on the ground was 108yds & the one in the rubbish pile was 184yds with the 39gr BK's. The one on the ground shows the exit. The one on the rubbish pile shows the entrance.

Glen! I see you've been very mean to small animals today! :eek:

They probably never felt a thing...ya just gotta love those Blitz Kings! Nice shootin', glad you got out and had a good day afield. I've spent my day in my gun room loading up another 200 204's for our next assault in a couple more weeks (32gr BK's over RL-10X).

I don't see a bipod or any QD studs on your nice thumbhole stock....did you shoot prone, or over bags or sticks?

Rick-- I don't like slings on my rifles. I just carry them military march style. I shoot from a chair & shooting sticks alot. Today was from my homemade shooting table with a Caldwell front bag & 2 small sawdust bags under the butt stock. Thanks for the compliments on the stock!! I really like the maple stocks. This one is from Richards Micro Fit & it turned out nice I think.

Today was a good day. I spent the better part of 3 hours with the farmer just setting there talking. I picked up a few pieces of wood for the lathe for FREE :wink: & an old Hornets nest that my Dad is gonna shellac for me. I also missed both of these hogs with the FireBall!! When they came back out I had already saddled up "the olOT4" & was waiting. :wink: Range trip for JR!! :lol:

Shooting table with a spinning lid on the bucket. That front rest has been replaced with a Caldwell. All the little stuff goes in the bucket when I pack up. Binos, RF, small bags, etc..

Hi Ray. Thanks for the kind words. :wink: Those 39's did a fine job. Thats the most destruction I've gotten from them.

That is Rosewood on the stock. Sure is noticeable!! :lol:
