Ethan Givan Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Tried about a 250 yard shot on a groundhog with the .243. I missed him clean. I havnt practiced enough lately I guess. I think he will be back though. Next time Im gonna try to get a better rest than a fence post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
