Shaun_300 Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Re: Dang Groundhogs........ You gotta get yourself a varmint gun! I've got a Remington 700 BDL in .22-250, varmit barrel, topped with a Redfield 6-18x scope. They'll be at 300yds and you lay the crosshairs right between their eyes and let'er rip! Good luck gettin' them, they can be a pain in the butt for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 Re: Dang Groundhogs........ The key to shooting woodchucks is patience. Sit your butt down with a soda and a book and wait. Make a little ground blind. Most woodchucks come out twice a day to feed. And try a .22 with hollow point bullets. You will get a little more range.

gitcha_some Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Re: Dang Groundhogs........ well lemme share a little secret bout dem whistle pigs, call this my secret weopon. What yall need to git, is a little thing that i like to call the MHU, or Mobil Hog Unit. Two highly trained proffessional hog slayers are required to drive this two man contraption. As the shortrange (shotgunner) drives the ez-go, the long range cover( sniper) is perched in the bed with the rifle on the roof as a rest. This is a highly affective approach for surprising the hog in his naturally element and effectively eliminating all evidence at all assorted ranges.(total annihilation of the hog) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Re: Dang Groundhogs........ [ QUOTE ] Go get an old tire and a can of gas (if you can afford it now). Cut up the tire so it fits in their hole. Pour gas on it and put it in er. light it and cover up that hole [/ QUOTE ] DO NOT do this. I'm not sure about Dixie but this will create tons of very toxic smoke and violates many environmental laws. Doing this in most states will get you arrested. Try doing this like a sportman and not like a redneck Ranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
