:roflmao: :roflmao:

You did that for Bob on the Varminter didn't you?? :roflmao: :roflmao: Ever notice how something sounds familiar but you just can't place it??

I changed the topic name. Can't be too careful with all these disclaimers running rampant today.

Glen,

Did the bullet enter the back of his head and then just exit the front? Or was his nose all that you could see sticking out of the hole? Because I know that you would never pull a center of the head shot that much.

The hog was standing up on it's front legs facing me. It knew I was there & wouldn't stand up. Last Sunday I missed it 2x with the FireBall from on top of the knob behind me. It was a 300yd shot & I couldn't quite dial it in. Everything inside the skull was mush & I think the lower jaw on these critters is fairly hard for that 40gr HP bullet to blow up that much on entry.

BTW-- I've pulled em before!! Aint no sense in pretending to be a crack shot.

Glen,

This is the internet. You can be the best shot in the world. In fact I think you were shooting for the fly on his nose and the hog moved just when you shot.

Jerry

HaMeR · July 02, 2007, 03:58:37 PM

It was really just a flea but I didn't want to brag Jerry.

:roflmao:

BTW-- I'm not, nor have I ever been, nor will I ever be,, the best shot in the world. Heck I was the only one shooting in that field yesterday & I still wasn't the best shot!!

:roflmao:

But I sure had fun lightin fires under those little boollets.

The Rock · July 02, 2007, 05:53:58 PM

You didn't have to change it glen. I would have given you the copy rights to it !!

:roflmao:

HaMeR · July 02, 2007, 08:07:18 PM

:roflmao: Thats OK Rocky!! I'll have to try for another one later this week.

HaMeR · July 04, 2007, 07:35:09 PM

All I could manage was a couple broadside head shots today. But this one was waaaayyyyy out there at 40yds & I nailed him on the 1st shot with a CCI QuikShok!!

ohiobob · July 04, 2007, 10:54:09 PM

Glen
I know the top Pig isnt going to be able to whistle without half of its tongue,,how far was it? 900 yards and it was whipping you the bird and you took the tip of its middle Finger ( claw ?) off and THEN smashed his face in,,there ya go
Now thats an internet Marksmanship Badge shot IF I EVER HEARD ONE !!! I wonder if Red Fag has his IMB yet ???
Bob

P.S. GOOD SHOOTIN !!!

Hawks Feather · July 04, 2007, 11:02:38 PM

Glen,

That 400 yard shot with a pistol is some FANCY shooting. At that range you weren't able to use that mirror shot over you shoulder, or did you?

Jerry

HaMeR · July 05, 2007, 07:03:08 AM

:roflmao:

Damn I'm good!! Yep!! That DAMN GOOD!!

Actually the true story reads like this:

I was setting at my portable shooting table when this groundhog pops up. I laid the 204 across the bags & promptly missed. When the dust settled I could see him out there just laughing & pointing at me

. That was when I thought "Game On'!! So I grabbed the MKII & some QuikShoks & took a steady aim offhand & gave it just a little Kentucky elevation & windage. It looked a lot like this. Anywho,, Just as the HaMeR fell the little bugger ducked!! I couldn't believe it!! Luckily tho,, the crack of the shot travelled faster than the boolet!! When he stuck his head back up to see what made the noise that little segmented HP boolet found noggin bone & his 4th of July came & went with a bang!!

So now you know "The rest of the story"!!

I was hesitant about posting it in fear of nobody believing me but I see you guys know your groundhogs & have apparently gone thru what I did yesterday. So for all you non believers out there,,, Jerry & Bob have my back on this one!! :roflmao: :roflmao:

BTW-- I had to quit using the mirror shot!! I think the insurance company was catching on.

Glad you guys enjoy these pics too!! Happy hunting to everyone here & their Families!!

HaMeR · July 05, 2007, 07:13:58 AM

Hawks Feather · July 05, 2007, 07:31:43 AM

Jim,

He has groundhog fever.

Jerry

HaMeR · July 05, 2007, 07:51:44 AM

And I'm trying to cure it one little piggy at a time.

KySongDog · July 05, 2007, 06:13:41 PM
