youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Decided i was gonna have another bash at getting my first squirrel today, because my previous attempts have been dreadful with me missing easy shots. With the weather being perfect and a stew in the slow cooker, me and the staffie went for a local wonder to check some squirrel nests. On the way there i decided to have a quick look in an abandoned barn, spotted a lone feral and took him with a lower neck shot and 9.5mm steel Carried on and after checking a few nests i hadnt seen a single squirrel. Then i shook a tree with a low nest in it, and a squirrel popped out and ran for it, me and the dog chased after it and finally it stopped and gave me a shot, first shot with 12mm steel dropped it, and the staffie made it even more dead. Feelt great walking home, and the house smelling of cooked stew on my arrival made it all the more sweeter lol The bands snapped shooting at a squirrel nest on the way home, these alliance sterling bands have been on for months now and had more than a 1000 shots through them, but only gave up today, top bands in my book 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
