Posted a clip of a PD shoot with my Wildcat

[echochap]

I headed off for a few days of prairie dog shooting in South Dakota. Leaving Minneapolis in the afternoon, I was out at the ranch in time for a late dinner, a good night sleep, and an early start.

I used a few different guns over the course of 4 days, but one I used a lot was the FX Wildcat .... a sweet new bullpup out of the Swedish airgun manufacturer.

Had to deal with some winds, which meant I was constantly rethinking how far I was willing to reach. Also go out on some predator hunting, with a fair amount of success.

Want to give this a try (and it's great for airgunning), give my buddy Brett a shout at Bad River Bucks and Birds.

Nice shooting! Looks like a blast. Ive never hunted prarie dogs but I have taken a few ground hogs with a springer. Possibly a stupid question, Can you eat them or are they just pests?

I worked for a trucking company out of Fargo,ND for over 10 years, was all over the place around SD ND and MN
I hated it, wind almost always was blowing, and COLD my God talk about cold -30 with 20mph wind not wind chill value oh no -30 actual.... what I could never understand is that area has one of largest population of motorcycle riders in the country...
And oh ya, lets not forget ice fishing... drive a car to the middle of a lake drill a hole in the ice put a little shack on it and a gas heater ..... and they say us rednecks are crazy. One thing I will say good about North Dakota and South Dakota, just about every place that served food also served 15 20 different kinds of beers malts and liquor,.,.,. Guess they need the antifreeze
LOL, good hunting

I'm visiting Colorado and the prairie dogs are all over, may have to reduce the population when my verminator arrives.
