Over 100 confirmed kills

Post by Inrut24/7 »

I havnt posted much this year due to being pretty buisy, I took over 100 groundhogs this year mostly with the 204. It wasnt my best year, but at long as i reach 100 im happy. longest shot was 420 yards. :D . My 204 is a Howa heavy barreled action bedded into a b&C stock with vx3 8.5x25 vh reticle, timney trigger @ 12 oz. Load was 25.1 grns rl 10x,rem brass, cci br4. A few were shot the the 40 grain hornady v-max, I definatly prefer the blitzking. I will post a few at a time.

Looks like fun not many ground pigs around here. I have well over a hundred confirmed kills this year. Unfortunatly they were miller High lifes and not yotes! I keep trying. Im hunting dogs with 40 grain hornadys as of now. Gonna do load workup on 40 g Bergers in the warmer weather. Just keep on pluggin. Went out yote hunting this morning. No Luck.

Nice pics, not near as many hogs around here as there used to be unless they start letting us hunt inside the city limits :)
