[QUOTE="zingdingo, post: 101605, member: 4413"] I really like it out west, and I will hopefully be relocating somewhere out there for grad school this fall, but I will miss being able to hunt groundhogs on a regular basis. I was surprised how big he was considering the time of year, often they are thinner in the spring. As for the rifle, the barrel was fire lapped with the David Tubb kit. I lowered the pull on the trigger, floated the barrel, and glass bedded the action (very poor bedding job, my first attempt). Beyond these modifications it's stock. Shooting that good is certainly a rarity, but it stays at or under .5 MOA with loads it likes. If I can get some better results at 500 yards I would like to try a groundhog shoot with it sometime this spring. Thanks for the comments, Carl [/QUOTE]
