Got out to the farm for some shooting this weekend. Was trying out the new WoTAC on the 6x45 and decided to go afield in search of the ever elusive whistlepig...
Found a prime candidate posing pretty and inserted a 70gr Blitzking into his ear @ 179yds. Spun him around and 'popped' pretty nicely...

Was stretching the legs of my GAP 7WSM as well and wanted to splatter a chuck with an AMAX, so off I went with the big green stick. Found a young chuck browsing @ 238yds and cut him in half...

Did some cruising on the ATV looking for more targets. Found one later that day pretty far off...just what I was looking for! Flippied down the Harris and lasered the piggie @ 462yds. Dialed him up and sent one his way and got a "thwaaaap" in return. Another head shot...

Oooooh that one felt good!

Last one of the day was a target of opportunity. Saw a chuck dive into his hole, so I piled off and got set real quick. I sent another AMAX along and it threw this chuck about three feet out of his hole at 105 yds...
Tried to snap a pic through the NXS, but Sun angle reflected the camera's image back into the glass...

The last victim again...

Re: Chuck whackin'....

Dirk,
That RUM should make quite the mess out of a chuck! If you can even find what's left, that is...

Very Nice shooting and looks like fun. Don't have any of those critters close to where I live.
