Well, I got out for the first time this year, and tested out a couple new (to me) rifles in the field. A buddy has a small dairy farm, and a half pivot, and I was able to get out in the cool wind and shoot some sage rats, aka bending ground squirrels.
It's a bit early in the year for sage rats, but it's been warm this winter locally, and I wanted to break the ice, so to speak.

I've got two rifles I shot today, which I recently purchased, and had only been used to make small groups of holes in paper. Above is the CZ 527 in 17 Mach IV, with 25 grain Berger over 8208 powder.
The other rifle is a Sako in 221 Furball, and it did well also.
It was time for field testing, can they make Skippy fly... and the verdict is, Yes!
