 One of the nice things about this time of year is the insects are gone, but it's still warm enough to leave a window cracked so I can shoot squirrels trying to poach bird food. Mother Superior's new pellet gun packs a good deal more punch than the old cheapo, but I shoot them in the ass, not the head. Lot of limping squirrels about - but no blood. |

Skwerls are evil. But tasty. God doesn't close a door without opening a window ... as it were.

Awww, shoot 'em in the head. They ain't nothing but rats with bushy tails.

Limpin' don't feed the bulldog; still a pest. In the head with a .22LR, although the last one I nailed, right to the West of the house, was with a short magnum 12 ga of copper-plated BB shot, at about 30 yards. Pretty messy.

They'll get their revenge by sneaking into your attic and chewing through wires. You'd be better off killing them. Might I suggest a RWS pellet rifle, .177 caliber at 1,000 fps.
Exellent fertilizer. -

What BlogDog said. Squirrel cooks up very nicely with carrots, onions, potato, garlic, salt, pepper, and a bit of chicken stock. Crockpot, low for 6-8 hours.

The Baikal is the best value for money to be had.
Using the same pistol, Son&Heir can put 51 out of 60 shots inside a 0.5" 10-ring, one-handed, unsupported, at 10 meters.
Well, that's what he did last night, anyway, and he's still upset because the 85% score was two points lower than his average, and four points lower than his best.
Death to squirrels! -
