i'm not much of a hunter myself, but my buddy used to hunt squirrels with a T/C Contender .22 LR with a scope on it. He said they always did a back flip on the way down. Gotta try it one of these days. Lotta little bones, less tree rats.

Squirrels... the other red meat... lol

Its been about 20 years since I used a 22(I dont even own a 22 anymore) for tree rats, been using shotguns since my teenage years.

Between squirrel, rabbit and dove - I'm quite thrilled about the upcoming adventures in the field.

I use an Ithaca model 37 ultra light in 20ga. Squirrel hunting sucked where I went last year but it was on some really windy days.

It's a blast isn't it?

Last year I switched to a Chipmunk single shot pistol. It's been fun, atleast utill you see a bear and then think that all you have is that single shot .22 on your hip. lol.

Never tried...

Maybe I should. Guessing the course and a small game license is in order...


Here's a question though, how do you make sure of your backstop when you are shooting up at a branch on a tree? (sometimes I can be paranoid....)

I haven't hunted in over 20 years, but am seriously considering for squirrel only. I prefer a 22 because after leaving off a 12 gauge in the woods it take a good 20 minutes for things to get back to normal. Then there are the pellets in the potpie, it seems no matter how hard I check I always miss one.

In the wooded areas around here there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of squirrels, so I came up with the idea of live trapping them in the park and relocating them.
