[QUOTE="DukeSilver, post: 2336413, member: 119963"] My 3 buddies and I have been making the trip out to S. Dakota for a few years now. Here's our spread: .22LR, .22Mag, .17hmr, .17hornet, .204 ruger, .22-250, .223rem, .220 swift, .22 hornet. And me and another guy will usually bring something obscure; 6.5 creed, .270 weatherby, .308 win...lastyear I smoked one with my .375H&H lol. Bring rimfires! the ammo is cheap and I guarantee you'll have the most fun with them. I us to take my 17wsm but ammo is expensive and an HMR is just as accurate. We probably shoot .22LR more than anything. What's nice about the zero recoil rifles are the follow up shots. When you're at full magnification even a .223 will lose sight picture. Yes it's cool to reach out and touch something with the centerfires, but just as fun to see how far you can drop in a .22lr. Other than guns, I recommend long sleeve fishing UV shirts, pants and boots - the biting flies are a son of a b. Pop up canopies, 360° swivel benches and watch out for prairie rattlers [/QUOTE]
