[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 150756, member: 3"] I've shot groundhogs just at 500 yards with a 223 Rem. It's not nearly devastating on them at that distance but a good spine, brain or chest hit will generally keep them from getting into their hole. It you need to stop the varmint in short order a 223 Rem is just about out of steam unless you find a bullet that'll frangment well at 500 yard 223 Rem velocities. [/QUOTE]
