No way.
Leave it as is.
That sucker's got sole and then some.

That sounds like a good idea also..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wyo, here's our "duck boat" hunting truck. It's been a few years since I painted ours and either I don't remember right or the price has gone up but Cabelas still sells it $59 a gallon. It's Parkers duck boat paint I used what they call hunter green. I bet the tan or dead grass would blend good in WY.
FG might be right, you might just ride yours like it is, ours was red when I got it and I couldn't have a red hunting truck!

Huntsman22,
Those are BIG adult prairie dogs you are showing.
Sometimes when shooting pups, it is hard to tell they are not adult ground squirrels.
But you are shooting adult prairie dogs.

I have hunted a shot over town where it was hard to get a pup's head to stick up at 200 yards.
I have hunted where they have never been shot, and i can walk around shooting adult prairie dogs in the head with a 22 rimfire held free hand.

Yeah, Clark. These weren't on my place. Hence multiples with a HMR. Mine are so cagey, a shot will put them all down for a real long time before they even venture a look outta the burrow.....

Them are some hogs Don... What scope is that?

Wille, nice rig.. Far better than a red truck...

Ben, it's a Pride-Fowler Rapid Reticle 17 hmr. Makes a purty good PD hunting rig....

Huntsman, you know I have limited experience with pdogs but the one in the first pic looks like a Boone and Crockett to me, maybe it's the camera angle.
Wyo, Thanks, I paid $1500 for it, I've had to do a little work to it but I've more than gotten my money out of it and then some, we use it like a road legal ATV!

On my way down to do chores, there was a raggit trying to get under the garden gate. I went ahead and whacked him, since the hummer was still fired up from yesterday. Got down to him and another one was IN the garden. That'll learn 'em.....

Dadgum corn munching varmints....grin


That looks like a nice usable reticle.

I like corn in my rabbit pot pie......

Another one out of the yard.


And a eurasion collared dove, invasive species. Game and Fish want them gone. We'll see how they compare to mourning dove.

Starting to see em around here too.
IDF&G says shoot on sight.
