    Default PD shooting *****Lots of Picts and graphic*****

    First off if these are too graphic I will take them down. But I don't think they are too bad.

    I went out again near Sterling, CO to shoot some PDs on a friends fathers land and his neighbors. This was my second time out with my .204 and 17HMR. We shot at three towns total. All were on private land and the owners want them shot to keep the population down or they will poison all of them. BTW we also see lots of Burrowing Owls at each town.

    These first three pictures are large panoramic shots so I'll just post links

    The town is spilling over into the neighbors land

    A different town on another neighbors land

    I don't have a picture of the third town, it is a lot smaller.


    This one was taken with the 17 at about 120 yards



    This one came up and was barking possibly trying to warn the ones on the other side of the fence that we were shooting at. I turned and hit him hard with the HMR and it fell over like a bowling pin, DRT.



    Shot one and the other came over to give medical tratment. Took care of him too.


    .204 at about 225 yards


    My best shot of the day was this one at 385 yards with the .204. Measured with my Nikon range finder.

    Awesome pics. I need to find a place to shoot those things. I saw PD shooting graphic pics and was wondering why the heck I hadn't heard about that on the news yet [roll]

    .204 @ 225 yds was the most graphic, but my stomach had no problems with it.
