Default RE: GroundHog tips

all i have is a 22lr and a 3006 rifle wise....so i take the 3006....killed 4 this year.....sitting in a row of pine trees waiting for them to come into the fields...i got out about 5 and hunt till dark.....heading out wednday if its nice...cant wait.....im taking the 50cal flintlock!!! that will be FUN!...ive killed them from 20feet out to 300yds so far......the 3006 is overkill as is the 50cal flinter....but its what i got and it kills em dead.....only one i had run i was trying to be a smart@$$ and shot him in the neck trying to decapitate him(im just sick like that lol) well my bullet hit right where i wanted....but the deer ammo didnt open so it just left a pencil hole in his neck...he took off running straight away...worked the bolt and racked another in and hit him in the rear....he died like the rest....its fun...i cant wait to get back out htere......good luck
