Gophers Are Out

Saw plenty of rock chucks while looking for sheds last weekend. I came back the next day to thin them out a bit. The p dogs weren’t so plentiful yet, but there’s plenty of time.

300 BLK with subs sounds like a pellet gun. Head/neck shots makes for a good challenge.

Went out gopher hunting this afternoon. My first time ever doing it. This much fun with a 22 should be illegal. And you are doing a service for your local rancher. I will be out again tomorrow.
 
I can't believe how much fun this is. And the things I'm learning about shooting with my trekking poles and using a sling to create a solid platform is priceless.

I took out twenty or so today. The 22 has impressed me. Couple of shots were about 100 yards out.

I have been using my 1940 made custom Mauser 98 in 7x57 shooting 139 grain Hornady soft points. They make quite a mess of them. Great practice for big game season. I use the express open sights on it as I can’t bring myself to drill and tap it.
 
Took a drive down into NorCal today...nearly 90 degrees!
But, 'skeeters were definitely out so got in a little pre-season!

Looking for some wood furniture for my Bug-A-Salt if anyone has a lead?
