Rez 4,957 Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Got away from work early today, but need to work this evening to make up for it. Went to the perm at 3.20 ish only for an hour. Took the 100. I snugged down at the base of chestnut tree and waited, watching a series of trees I notice the squirrels use. This one gave himself up with the common screeching. Before he arrived it gave me sometime to think how the hell Im gonna thread a pellet through the amount of branches. I did. Loudest pop Ive heard. Caught him just behind the ear. Wiggling around for about 3 minutes though after, tough little sod. The pigeon came in about 20 minutes later. Dont "normally" go for head shots on pigeons, more the boiler room with my .22's, but with a 100 in hand, its a formality. 4 Quote Link to post

Try this , soak overnight in salted water in fridge, then simmer in fresh water for 90 minutes, let cool and remove meat from bones, ready to use .. also ,the slit over the hind quarters and standing on the tall to pull skin off works great..
