David_218 Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Most, if not all, my varmint hunting is close range < 100 yards, and more like 50 to 75 yards. I mainly us my CZ 527 rifle in .22 Hornet or my Winchester Model-43 in .25-20 for such use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Re: gun of choice for varmits Going to be using a savage model 10 in .243 that I bought my wife a few years back. We had been shooting 100 grain remington core lokts with the gun. Picked up a couple of boxes of winchester cxp1 80 grain varmint rounds the other day to see how they do.
