Holy Cow JustinLo1, I figured you was after those critters we call P-dogs or Plains Rats. The amount of magnafication looks like perhaps your heading off to those Afgan mountains to do some real "sniping"!

I never used more than a 25-06 caliber for speed goats and mule deer alike. I used a handloaded 100 grain bullet on goats and 120 Nosler Partition on muledeer. My scope by the way for a 3 x 9 power and I never got over 6 power that I can remember.
