Were I hunt,shots can be out past 700 yards! I always take my .223 Encore pistol for shots under 200 yards and when I want to reach out and "TOUCH" a woodchuck out to 500 yards I shoot a 25-06 or a 7mm-08...

Now you're talking --- favorite cartridge for gophers and other rodents?
The .223! The great deer cartridge!
