Sorry to say this but that is one UGLY gun. However since I am already in South Dakota, you could send it to me..

Really though, Thats a beauty. I have a new Savago Varmit model waiting for the weather to improve. We have not had much good range weather here. Good Luck. Where are you going in SD?

It looks like it is built wrong. You better send it to me, along with all the ammo you have for it, to dispose of properly. Long live the left handers!

I have tons of P-dogs....First you drink all the beer and eat all the cheese, then you'll start seeing them everywhere

Go check out some of the reservations, seems to be a good thing going there. I've never shot on one yet, but have talked to guys that have and they said it was awesome shooting.

actually, i was thinking of using that to trade to see if some ranchers would be gracious enough to let me use their land. any of them work like that?

Depends on where you are at, and if the ranchers are mad at the state. I'm sure you will be able to find one that will let ya shoot away, but it might be tough. I have a few places I can go and bang away all I want, but getting those spots wasn't easy.

You might try calling 605-279-2125. This is the National Grasslands office in Wall SD. They may be able to help you or point you to someone who can. There are a lot of dogs south of Wall. I have some land North of Wall but the Mule deer ate all the prairie dogs.
