Wyoming 'dog shoot pics.

[Al Nyhus]

Randy Robinett (BIB Bullets) and I had the honor of hosting Prosperity, South Carolina's favorite son....'Humble' Henry Rivers....to five days of prairie dog shooting in Eastern Wyoming.
The shooting was good, the memories even better. Here's a few of my favorites:

Three Amigos at Mt. Rushmore. L-R: Randy Robinett, 'Humble' Henry Rivers, myself.


"Yes, Henry. You can shoot as many of those prairie dogs as you want to."


A prairie dogs worst nightmare: R.G. spotting and 'Humble' shooting!


R.G. videos and Henry lays down the fire at 'Death Valley':

"Henry, twist those big knobs on the scope and see what happens!"


We had the rare opportunity to see a dig in progress for a just discovered 67 million year old Triceratops. Incredible!



This is 'Bubble Gum', Henry's pet 222. It ended up with the Long Distance Award with a hit at 422 yds. The shooters name is being witheld to protect the not-so-innocent.

At breakfast one morning, 'Humble' laid down a challenge to Randy....the most hits with 10 shots. The winner would recieve a crisp $1 bill, autographed by the losing party. R.G. pulled out his 20BR and Henry was weilding his XP-100 based 204R. By the way, the BIB 40gr. .20 cal. bullets are pure poison on the 'dogs. When the dust, dirt, parts and pieces had settled, it was Randy's 8 out of 10 barely edged out 'Humble's' 7 out of 10 for the victory. As you can imagine there was quite a bit of trash talk going on between the two combatants.

Here forever captured on digital media is the historic handing over of the aforementioned $1 bill, bearing 'Humble's signature. Almost like the Japanese surrenduring to MacArthur.....


Randy getting down to business in the Shootoff as Henry watches. The date stamp is off as I'd reloaded the batteries and didn't reset it.


Henry 'gets Western' with his 6BR. R.G. spotting:


Good shootin'. -Al
