In recent weeks I have been doing my walk around groundhog hunting with my home defense Ar 15. The rifle is mid length sporting a MAtech rear sight and truglo TFO fiber optic night. I know this doesn't exactly have the appeal for a varmint hunting gun but I was just testing the waters on whether I wanted to pursue a iron sighted varmint gun. My results so far have been three shots and three instant kills. The shots ranged at 18, 36 and 65 yards. Most my hunting is done walking around small hay fields and soybean fields. The longest shots I'll be taking are within 125 yards and most with be at alert groundhogs so a quick off hand **** is a must. I'm looking for a center fire lightweight rifle with quality sights. Preferably a peep sight in the rear. I already have enough rimfires so I would like to hear center fire options only. I'm a reloader so the availability of factory ammo is not much of a factor. What would the high road suggest? CZ in 223? 22 hornet? Possibly a A2 style Ar? Thankyou! I'll share a few "trophy shots" from the recent week.
