Default RE: What is the perfect groundhog gun???

Question, Do you want this to double for anything else?
Me, My long range gun is a bull barrel .243. I can also use this for ANY centerfire deer states and also Antelopes and meat Mule Deer.

If only for whistle pigs then what do you consider long range?
Over 300 yards I'd look at at least someting in the .24 if not a little larger, under 300 then .22-250 or .223 or any of the other .22's
My other rifle(and it's new so I can't say how it will do on the pigs yet) inside 150 is the new .17 HMR. Neat rifle!
