Since the coyote hunting has been so abysmal this year here I need to find something else for my .223 to munch on and thought I'd see if there is anyone hunting groundhogs in these parts. I've never even looked for them, are they as abundant here as they seem to be in many other states? Who knows, if there is a lot of them out there it might be a good exuse to buy another rifle? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif A T/C Encore in .243 (so I could reach out and touch them) would be cool. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
