Lots of good shooting.  Lots of destruction.  Thinning out the population that was overrunning the land.

This goes to show that working with land owners can be good for both you and them.

Henry .45-70 Rifle Lever Action – new caliber, new rifle

I know, I know…this is not a squirrel or varmint-class rifle!

But, Oh – what a beauty!  Any gun nut would love to get their hands on this lever action!

Henry Rifle .45-70 Lever Action

Henry Repeating Arms .45-70 Lever Action

Reading some of the other write-ups about this it seems there is a LOT of interest in this rifle. Introduced by the U.S. Army in 1873, this cartridge was first known as the .45 Government.  This is a big game rifle – suitable for deer to some of the largest game you can take.

Folks in bear country up North in Canada and Alaska will love this gun.

And, coming from Henry, you can bank on an excellent quality and that classic Henry smooth lever action.

I think this gun alone would be a good reason to get the latest Henry Rifles Catalog.  You can get yours free by clicking the .45-70 above.

Stop drooling…

Now – back to our varmint discussions….

Varmint Hunting – Shooting Prairie Dogs – High Powered Rifle – South Dakota Hunting – Long Range Shooting

Do ya like prairie dog hunting?

There are tens (probably hundreds) of thousands of prairie dogs in the prairies of South Dakota that need to be thinned out.

Take a high powered rifle, a good rifle scope and lots of ammo and have some fun…and help the landowners in the process.

This video was shot in the Sioux Indian Reservation with their permission and direction from one of their guides.

You’ll have to get past the 40 second lead-in on the video before you get to the prairie dog shooting.

Enjoy!
