it is tons of fun, my longest kill is 414 yards, got 2 in a row .
You will have plenty of fun and do a lot of shooting if the pups are out. They are pretty stupid.

im going with a friend who goes all the time, he is the one who built that .308 and got me into hand loading. his best shot was 700yds on one but like he said it was luck.
