[QUOTE="Dr. Richard Gray, post: 2661487, member: 111239"] Nice. I grew up and live in deep Southern Illinois where we also have some rather large groundhogs. The most remarkable kill I ever had was in 1971. The hog had just crawled up on top of his mound and was, as you said, in the feeding position, (tough shots even at 100 yds.). My first kill with this Win Model 94 Classic 30-30 after returning home from Navy. I never actually hit him (100yds). He never moved for a long time and I didn't think I even came close. As I approached his mound still no movement. When I rolled him over there was a trench where the 150gr HP went under him. I don't know if it broke his neck or what, but no blood, no entry hole, nothing. Strangest shot I ever had. [ATTACH type="full"]409520[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
