If the 'rubber' prairie dog moves even a little it means you hit it!


Camera was zoomed to max so targets were not very clear at 200 yards.

Nice shooting! You got some solid hits eary on for sure, but it looks the barrel got a little too toasty.

I also see what you mean about pushing the camera to its limit. It looks like the prairie dog has an aura!

great fun and good shootin'! what scope?
