I'm recently retired and looking for some new outdoor fun. New to the game of prairie dog hunting.
I recently purchased a Savage model 16 in 223 Cal. Lefthanded bolt action, stainless steel barrel.
I've topped it with a Vortex 4x12x44 Crossfire ll BDC retical scope.
After doing a lot of mind numbing research, I've purchased 200 rounds of Fiocchi 50 grain V Max ammo to start shooting once it gets warmer outside.
I hope to reload my own ammo down the line.
Any thoughts on this rifle/ammo setup for prairie dog hunting?
