My grandpa and I used to shoot groundhogs when I was a kid. Granted that was a .410 shotgun inside the city limited, yeah we riled up the neighbors. If you ever want some help clearing them out I'd be glad to show up with my Marlin 22A suppressed and get them buggers. Good times and nice work. You have me convinced I need a .223 or .22 WMR added to my collection.
Really enjoyed the video. Glad RU-vid recommended your video to me. Pretty cool gun. I have A LOT of groundhogs around my place and I have always used either my .243 or my AR. Your video made me interested in getting a .22 mag.
As a teenager, I used to kill ground hogs in my father’s winter wheat 🌾 fields in the spring with a Browning BAR .243 Winchester. Killing the ground hogs in the spring prevented the hogs from destroying the soybeans that we planted after the wheat was harvested. I learned a great deal about shooting hunting those pigs. Had a great time and lots of clean country fun.
Pretty decent quality semi auto rimfire rifle, so good to see this in 'real time' shooting. I'll bet there's a nice fresh smell on your 'orange' range that day.
Because of your first video of that gun I picked one up at midway USA for 530$. It’s a awesome rifle great wood too.I got the one without iron sights tho. I absolutely love, love, love it!!!! Going to take it upstate NY for Red squirrel 🐿. Wish I knew a spot for wood chucks. Mine is very accurate too 1/2 inch group at 50 yards. Used CCI game point 40 grain.
Beautiful Rifle, but for those wood chucks I prefer your 22-250 and 6.5 work. In Western Canada here the 22 mag filets prairie dogs 10 feet into the air. Unreal!
I’ve never oiled the bolt. And I really do think the issue is with the 5rd mag not having enough spring tension. Although I will say I don’t think a light coat of oil would hurt anything
22 wmr ammo are so dam expensive in my area.. for accuracy i still prefer 17 hmr. If cz could make the semi auto in 17 hmr, i would probably buy one. But if you have access to low cost 22 wmr ammo in bulk., sure..
Unfortunately people are bidding all of these things up so high. There's still a lot of panic buying and the price is going to remain high even after everything calms down.
