I decided to take the prostaff off my mini so I have this scope laying around and it fits nicely on my M&P 15/22 which I've shot for years with just the sights. the BUIS on it were right on out of the box so I've never really sighted it in

so what yardage to y'all sight in? 25, 30, 50?
right now it's a few inches high at 30 yds
the adjustment knobs on the scope are 1/4" at 100 yds per click

Maybe 10" or so.

30-35 yards kills a squirrel or possum.

was down at the camp a few weeks ago and all the bars and banks were under water, hopefully it's come down some since. Otherwise we will be working way too hard

It's still really high where we are. We are off the Chene. Where you at?

most of the nutria are on top of the nest so they stick out like a sore thumb, and they can't swim as fast as the run so it a little easier than normal.

over 200 is a damn good day, I doubt we'll have the chest to tromp for that many but we'll do our part

Not really fits neatly into a 5 gallon bucket. You just have to turn in the tail. We just cut off the tail and leave the rest for the gators
