gurtwurz 793 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 well thanks for the tips the other day fellas, i got out on sunday morning and had a look around the small bit of wood and the woodland hedgerows seperating some of the fields. i didnt see anything apart from a couple of well out of my range rabbits so i'd decided to sneakily make my way back to the motor when i chanced upon a couple of tree rats having a munch at the base of a beech tree, they'd seen me as i'd clocked them so they shot up the tree and jumped to the next one,right you buggers i thought and leant against the nearest tree and waited a sec. as id hoped, one of em poked his head up to take a squint at me, so i drew a bead on him and popped from about 15yds and 10' up. not the longest range i've ever taken a shot from, but my heart was in my mouth as i heard the reassuring whack of pellet on head and saw him drop from the tree and land with a thump. i couldnt find the other bugger for love nor money mind, so i took a photo of the first, threw him over my shoulder and headed home for brekky. anyhow, heres my first squirrel, hopefully the first of many http://i941.photobucket.com/albums/ad255/gurtwurz/024.jpg http://i941.photobucket.com/albums/ad255/gurtwurz/025.jpg happy hunting one and all, wurz Quote Link to post

Nice shooting indeed Phantom Oh do you eat them? oh yeah mate,the missus is a great cook so she does a great squirrel in hoi sin sauce wrap, which is spot on-better than chinese shredded duck in my opinion the exit wound looked a lot worse than it was, but .20 does leave its mark, for sure! atb, wurz Edited April 20, 2010 by gurtwurz Quote Link to post
