jcwa Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Re: varmit gun??? I mostly use my 2 Bushmasters AR-15's in .223 caliber, I also use my Rem .22-250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest holt525 Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Re: varmit gun??? 204. is a little small for yotes and i already have a ruger mini 14 in 223. and a savage 243. so i would like a caliber like those or bigger?? Pictures of u guys setups would be nice 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cowpoke Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Re: varmit gun??? Well... for ground hogs I use my 222 or 223, both are Remington 700's the 222 is a synthetic ADL wearing a Nikon pro-staff 3-9x40, the 223 is a SPS version with same model of scope. For coyotes most likely my Remington 700 ADL sythentic in 243 with a Nikon Buckmaster 3-9x40, or my Rem 700 ADL synthetic in 25-06 wearing a buckmaster 3-9x40 scope. The 223 may also get used for yotes. I also have a Winchester 70 stainless classic with a sythetic stock in 243 with a Nikon monarch 3-9x40 scope, but I haven't got it dialed in yet.
