I was in Lethbridge this weekend and the gophers were running everywhere! This was very dissapointing as we got a foot of snow, anmd it appears like another foot this next weekend. This could push back the Battle T gopher opener by at least a week:mad: :mad: BUT, it at least got me motivated to clean up some brass, get started loading up ammo, and finding new places.

My Rig- 72 Scout, Great gun platform but has some electrical issues ie short out stater is a pain

Extended range- 22-250 rem VS with 6-18 leo

Main weapon, an old Rem 513 Matchmaster with a 3-9 scope My preference is Rem Yellow jackets

The bad- Buddies 223 Rem Hes finally got a decent load, will see if he can hit anything

The ugly- another buddies 223 Savage, I cant hit $%(*&^)^ with it even though it is a .4MOA rifle. VERY ugly unit

If you've never experienced it, there's nothing quite like shooting gophers with centerfires on the snow. Sounds like a Chinook for the weekend, get out and enjoy it!
