Yep. Flat, windy, dry, cactus, and large angry pdogs. Two 300wm's ready to role. ;D I still maintain it is a wonderful pdog cartridge. Really great when they are in nice close groups.

::) It's a nice cartridge, sure, but is it really enough gun? You might want something bigger. Large, angry game like that can be downright dangerous! ;) ;)

Amen, the ones on the folks place in NE Colorado are flat out vicious...can never have to much gun or ammo, never know when they will organize and attack ;D

Anything less than a 458 Win Mag will just pi$$ off a charging bull p-dog.

Seriously, I am jealous. Been wanting to go p-dogging for years. Good luck and good shooting to you.

Don't forget your 22LR! See lots of Pdogs out here in NE CO. What about's will you be hunting? Around the Lamar area or more up North closer to the NE line?

To bad a guy can't shoot by the Denver airport in the old munitions dump, lots of them there! ;)

They're all over the eastern side of town, the Gander Mountain in Aurora is almost over run. If a guy had a nice, quiet pellet gun...

Rinodods,
I have to be up at teller county later this year, any pdog shooting anywhere near there or near colorado springs?

I may just have to take you up on that in the near future. Having someone already there that has been there - done that would be a huge asset and I am sure would make the trip much more enjoyable.

We just had our first PD hunt of the season in south central Wyoming Saturday. Only got to shoot until around 1:00 PM and had quite a bit of wind. Only managed to get eighty or so. We may have to look for another ranch to hunt if it doesn't get any better than that.

Just what I wanted to hear. ;D ;D ;D

This is going to be a good trip. Counting down the days.

Just can't decide if a 325 gr FTX out of my 458 will be enough, or if I am going to be forced to load up some 500gr solids for those Rampant Bull P-Dogs. :o
