I guess the ground hog told them they would only have 118 more weeks of war.

Dunno what he hit that one with , but a Hornady 52 gr match hollow at ~4,000 fps from a 22-250 would have turned it into pink mist .

I took a couple of Punxsutawney Phil's relatives with a bow maybe 10 miles from Punxsutawney. Tastes like chicken but a little tougher.

And I think it's miserable if it's 10F or so, cloudy, and with a strong north wind. I have a copy of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich somewhere and should dig it out. I'm spending too much time on this expensive toy.

That why historically people tried to have their jolly little wars in the summer after the crops were in.

Hayha preferred iron sights since the scopes of the day tended to fog up as he picked off Soviets huddled around fires.
