    Anyone else with the model 11 Prairie Dog from Cabelas?


    Any accuracy reports on this in 223 with different weight bullets, even reloading. I just bought one this weekend and put a 4-12x40 Nikon on it. I took it to my father to let him sight it in with a box of 60gr Vmax that was made by HPR. He really likes shooting it, so I might have to sneak in to get it back.

    I did quite a bit of searching on this and had my mind set on buying a CZ527 until I saw what the twist was

    I have the Varmint Trophy Hunter from Cabela's (same same just a shorter barrel I believe) and found out that while it loves 69 grain SMKs it is stupid silly with 77 grain SMKs. As far as I can measure with calipers it is a .23" group. It was the only group I shot with them because I dialed to 900 and started shooting steel.
    More shooting, less typing.

    I got .316" from 3 shots at 100yds using Norma Match 223 with 77gr SMK, definitely a keeper

    I just got on of these Prairie Dogs in 22-250. sing some 25 YO loads with bulk .224 55gr FMJBT and IMR 4064 I got a 10 shot .67 group after a 20 round break in. Am now going to try some Hornaday 50gr with H 380 and 4064. I have some 69 gr fmjbt match Sierras going to try as well.
