Hunting & Fishing Took out the M40's for some groundhogs.

SMK's suck on them, at least 175's and 168's. Had 3 get away after being hit. 300gr. SMKs from my 338Edge stops em where they sit. But this was pretty hard, 3-9 scopes and no bipod. Longest shot was around 200yds, only had one that wasn't this years batch. But all in all, makes for a cool picture. Mine is on the left, My buddy Brians is on the right.

+1 for the Amax, even though I've never had any problems with SMK's.

Gotta love taking out those groundhogs. I am up to 9 this summer just using rimfires under 150yards. Can't wait to get my .22-250 completely setup so I can start taking shot farthers out!

Nice looking rifles by the way!

200 yds. & under? That's poor shot placement, not the fault of the bullet.

Just punches a hole through em and you find a bloody hole with a groundhog somewhere in it.
