If your planning on eating them, go for the head shot, then you get to watch their tail spin!!! Very Happy

Elvis,

Unfortunately, the rifle has barely seen the outside of the safe (except to clean and oil it) since my move to the Western US. I really have no reason to change anything as far as my reloads go and have never fired it over a chronograph.

It's sighted in 2" high @ 100 yds and I remember holding right at the top of the groundhog's head when he stood up. the bullet hit dead center of the chest cavity

a man after my own heart....if load works dont change it and keep that plurry chrony away or you will just stuff it up.

I take that back....

I looked at the targets I have saved. It's sighted dead on @ 100 yds....
