Got permission on a new piece of farm land for groundhogs this past Sunday. So we went out that evening & I took out Momma & 2 pups. Went back yesterday evening & shot the other 3 pups. 1st & 3rd slid back down in the hole & the 2nd one laid out on the mound. Only shooting 40yds ...

Soon as I get a chance I'm gonna tweak the loads I tried last month before all the wind & rain showed up.

I'm shooting Dad's old Stevens .222 that he bought new back in the early 60's I believe it was.

BANG!!


LOL

Yeah that coulda been a problem too Bill!

:lol: :lol: The only launch I've ever had here is with my Marlin 17HMR on a chipmunk perched on an old fence rail. The 17gr V-Max flipped it out of the scope & I only found the upper 1/2. :twisted: Unless I count the crow at 145yds off a round bale. Made 2 pieces out of 1 crow with that shot &am...

So much fun & so little time RIO!!

I think all those rats made it home for dinner in a different manner of which you speak.

Congratulations on the new CZ Bodei!! Fine looking rig you got there!! :mrgreen: My Wife has the 527American in 221 FB & that rifle just plain old shoots too!! I've never heard nor read of CZ accuracy problems. The biggest complaint seems to be the magazine style. It works fine IMHO. My CZ712 is...

Sounds like a win/win for you then!! I hope you enjoy your Premier as much as I do!!

I can't seem to find the nickel version.

This is where I usually get my Swift Premiers. However they only have a limited selection. BUT they have FREE shipping!! http://www.eabco.com/Swift01.htm I may be getting my next 4-12X40AO from SWFA for a few dollars more but it's the nickel finish. Unless I can find matte silver. http://swfa.com/ H...

And so it begins once again!!!!!!!!

HTH I can only attest to the 4-12x40AO Premiers. I have a couple of these & love them. I picked up a used 6-18 about 7-8 years ago & ended up selling it to a young up & coming hunter/shooter for his 1st rifle. Nary a problem I've ever heard back. I am in the market for 1 or maybe 2 more ...

Click on the QUICK LINKS tab at the top left of the page under the crosshairs when you 1st log in. The drop down menu gives you 2 options to do just that. HTH

Welcome aboard Tarrin!!

Sweet!! Another rat rifle loved by all & hated by some!! Too bad they can't get to know it before it ends their existence on this wonderful rock we call Earth!! I just know they would love it too!!

Nice!! It'll be warming up enough to shoot here in about 45 more days I'm guessing!! Hoping Diane's 221 loads shoot as well with me loading them as they did with my Brother loading for her.

Can't wait to get out & see what the ol 222 is gonna do with the 6 test loads I have.
