[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1600390, member: 22069"] About two and a half years ago, I had my first taste of Prairie Doggin' on the Big Boquillas Ranch in northern AZ. It was a lot of fun and absolutely worthwhile! I wrote about that trip here: [URL]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/az-prairie-dog-fun-trip-report-and-after-action-review.175021/#post-1227232[/URL] Since then, I have spent a lot of time in northern AZ and have had the pleasure of getting to know the area a lot better. This last Sunday, I spent a beautiful afternoon Prairie Doggin' on public land. I was successful in dropping a few dogs at distances of between 500 and 600 yards, and scared a few around 700 or so. The giggle factor was high! I was shooting my 22-250 with 53 VMAX's and enough 8208 XBR to launch them at 3850ish from my 26" barrel. My rifle is nothing special to anyone but me. It's a sporterized Mauser '98 with a Shilen barrel and a cheap, Midway special, BSA scope. It's a humble package, but it shoots, and I find myself falling in love with it all over again every time I take it afield.
