Today at p-dog central....

[5spd]

After putting the first rounds through my 6x45 Savage build Sunday to sight it in and getting nice, small groups I went out to one of the ranches I shoot on and layed out a little over 100 p-dogs today.
All I can say is WOW.
My build is nothing to write home about as its just a 1986 Savage FP10, was .223, now 6x45, new McGowan 24" ss select bbl., 20yr old BSA platnum 6-24x44 target scope, plastic stock, fat lug & large bolt.
The McGowan bbl is better than I actually expected BUT hoped it would be.
All were taken with the 65g vmax with AA2015 behind it, just a tad over 3000 fps. Accurate as it should be. I can also say it will pop a p-dog to 450 yards & it does not wind drift like my .223 using a 50g vmax at 3400 FPS. Wind was steady at 15-17 mph. I shot with it or into it mostly today.
I built it just for coyotes and Antelope and had to get it out and run it steady on the p-dogs for a good break in.
Lots of ready to eat coyote food left today. I did hear 3 down in the creek bottom area, but again..did not see them. I will bid my time on them.
