* Composite stock with Ambidextrous cheek piece
* CrushZone recoil pad
* Deep pistol grip
* Drilled & tapped for scope

Well, if it doesn't work well, it's $180 down the drain. :-(

Rats, as I heard, are not bad at all. I know in some parts of China they farm and eat mountain rats. Very expensive though.

After you shoot a prairie dog with a .233, there won't meat be much left to eat. The challenge is hitting a 3-4 inch targets at 100-200 yards.

Prarie dogs are hunted as varmint control. Anywhere there are livestock, the dens are a danger: livestock step in the holes and break legs. They are also carriers of fleas and the plague.

That would be prairie dog shooting....not hunting. Doesnt seem to be much sport in that. A beercan would serve the same purpose.
