Badger down

Post by broper »

Just thought I'd show a varmint from over here in so. west Idaho. I got this guy this morning with my .222 Rhiimaki. Male, weighed 15 lbs. 9 oz. and he was stinking pretty good. Shot another one on the same mound, it was down and kicking but be fore I could shoot again it kicked itself down the hole. I think I must have gut shot it. About 20 minutes later I completly missed another one. I was hurrying, thinking it was going to run before I could shot and I jerked the trigger. Rookie shooting, badger fever?

Nice there, broper! Always fun to thump a big badger.

Shows that old Sako's don't fade away, they just keep getting better. Thanks for sharing the morning adventure. :D
