Default 7mm-08 new ground hog gun

I posted earlier about my 7mm-08 shooting sub MOA groups at 100 yards with Varget and 140gr NBT... Anyhow were I live I have I have fields behind my house and I've ranged the wood line with range finder and its 300 + yards to wood line... Anyhow I see this ground hog pop up out there on edge of field so I go to get my 22-250 to shoot this hog and I remembered my son shot all my ammo last summer at a hog in this same spot... So I figured heck I'll try my 7mm-08 with BDC reticle and see what happens... Well I I set up on my sand mound and snap in on him... The gun was sighted in a little high at 100 so I opted to use second dot and squeezed one off and I just missed him by a hair... Chambered another round and used second dot and squeezed off another round and DUSTED his posterior off!!! I'd say it's ready for deer season
