Old thread reborn. I like it! The 17 hmr is the catz azz for gophers. What a blast
Let me know if you ever need help!

Wow. Normally this time of year they have gone to hibernation in these parts. Haven't seen a gopher anywhere for weeks now

I’m in!
Used the pool noodle gun cradle trick for the first time. Made a huge difference in consistency. Dropped lots at 100 yds yesterday. The savage A22 with accutrigger is a great gun. First time out with 25 shot clip too, super fast to load and very smooth.

I need to find a good gopher patch again. Anything real close is kinda shot up.

Used to shoot hundreds of gophers but now the hawks have moved in and you can barely find one. Don’t miss all the damage they did but it was one of the funner jobs on the farm.

Have been on a big early spring poisoning program last few years and between that and the badgers my stock pile has dwindled to all time lows. Have a nice little groomer fun but use it on targets now?

I have a high powered pellet gun I'd like to try this summer on a few gophers

Headed out tomorrow. Few of us going. Sounds like we are doing a derby. Collecting tails haha.
Haven't been out since this time last year. Thought ammo was scarce last year...this year is way worse

Always used to be lots of them down there when we were kids growing up.

Started gopher hunting at 5. Filled couple 5 gallon pails of water, pulled the water out to the pasture on a beat up old red wagon Filled gopher holes with water. Waited with hockey stick, until they surfaced. Whack……dogs were happy.
