Just like Rick we got out for a Rat shooting trip fri, sat,and Sunday. And all i can say is WOW!! What a great time we had. Our avg. shot was about 60-70 yards and a long shot was 150yards. There was so many baby's out we did have to look long range at all. We got there late Friday morning and there was rats aplenty a little windy but ok. Saturday morning was windy and as the day went along the wind blew like i have never hunted in i didnt have my wind gauge but When you exploded a rat and they launched up in the air the wind would catch them and carry them 20-40 feet before they landed. It was a amazing amount of wind. Heres some photos of our trip.

.204's rule the land if you look up high and right in the picture there is a rat flying up high

In this one my son shot a rat and he split in two pieces and we found each piece and i ranged them @ 72' apart. My son is @ one end and my brother @ the other

This guy is a little strung out

Ya just a little to the right

Hes got a split personality

This little guy kept coming out and trying to eat you guess what happend next.

Very good pics man!! I like em!!

Excellent "Launch Factor" there!

I used to think the 22-250 had more launch factor and by ballistics they should but man that .204 really launchs those babys. I am totally sold on the .204 my son had a 22-250 and we had some bad luck sold it and and got a .204 and never looked back. .204 is king

majcl5,

I like the launch pictures too! I think I have to agree with you on the 204 launching them better than the 22-250. I shoot the 32 V-Max and the 39 S.B.K's against the 50 V-Max and the prairie dogs just seem to come apart better with the .204.
