My most memorable varmints kills were both prairie dog hunting last summer near Edmonton. I managed to hit a prairie dog running for its hole at approx 150 yards from a kneeling position with my SR-22 w/ Eotech (big thing for me was no magnification). My other most memorable shot is a prairie dog at approx 225 yards with my Savage 12FV (.223) with my handloaded ammo (69gr Sierra HPBT) at a partially obstructed target (half of it was behind a dirt pile. While maybe not the most difficult shot in the world, it was the fact that I had put together the ammunition myself that gave me the satisfaction.

My daughter watching through the lazer range finder at a coyote, she says 908 yards, I'm lying prone, weatherby vanguard, swarovski 3x10x42, harris bipod, .22-250 hand loads, 55gr vmax, first shot, dead yote. Luck, no kidden, but still one of my best shots, and in front of the kid, pricless.

160lb cougar. Ruger M77 MKI .270 win XP3 Winchester 140's at 279 yards. No wind, early morning.
Oblique shot on the cat.
I was resting in the house against a windowframe in the master bedroom. My now ex-GF did not like to be woken up with "Honey, cover your ears"

new record for me. 450 yards + on a coyote with my .22-250.
took a poke at him at about 500 yards when he was balled up sleeping on a snow drift. Bullet hit about a foot in front of it, 6" low. He ran into the next field and was screwing around. took the snowmobile back to see if there was any blood, looked into the next field and there he was standing broadside looking at me, shut the sled off, rested on the seat, touched one off and he did the death spin then fell over. I was pretty happy. There was 4 coyotes in our field that day, calving season its like ringing the dinner bell.

About 140 yards. no wind. 25 C. about 2:00 p.m. Shot a varmint right between the eyes.
We were paint balling and the "enemy" was peek-a-booing behind a bush. So, I raised about 4-5 feet and pulled the trigger. We both watched the paintball spiral towards him. Got him between the eyes. We both just about pizzed ourselves laughing.
