[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1676934, member: 313"] I've shot a gajillion groundhogs with a Rem 40X in 22-250. My favorite bullet at the time was the 52gr Sierra HPBT match bullet. I eventually rebarreled that rifle to 22-243AI and shot 75gr (moly) Amax bullets at 3,670 ft/sec with unbelievable accuracy. Hits out to 1,000 yds killed instantly. I bought another Rem 40X in 6mm Rem but eventually re-built it in 6.5x284 for shots exceeding 1,000 yds. I also had a lightweight walking Rem model 7 in .221 Fireball. I shot that rifle so much that the barrel eventually went south. I threw a new barrel on in .223 just for the heck of it. Newest varmint rig is a RRA AR-15 in 458SOCOM. I really have no idea what type of varmints this rifle is meant for but it sure is fun to shoot. Pigs don't like it much, I've confirmed that. LOL [/QUOTE]
