Today my new-to-me Weaver T10 arrived (thanks Ringer) and it went right on my Contender K-Hornet. Saturday my daughter completed her hunter safety course and it was time to try a woodchuck. I bore sighted and got the K-Hornet on in two shots. I also confirmed zero on a HR sportster 17HMR with a 10X Bushnell. I popped a couple bipods on and off we went. We saw several woodchucks, but none cooperated by sticking around. After a long walk back a farm lane we spotted one at 135 yards. My daughter took the K and crawled under a blow-down to a little rise so she could get a clean shot. I was proud of her as she got herself well situated. When the G-hog lifted his head she fired. A clean shoulder shot, her first G-hog.
Later we spotted just a head sticking out a drop hole right behind the farmers house by his garden. With his permission I layed down with the 17 and took the shot, just seeing an eye and top of head peering out. IMMORTAL and Mr M, I got him in the head...but we lost the photo in the download. Photo is my daughter with her groundhog.
