Squirrel_Basher 17,102 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Just got back in .Had a call from a farmer today to ask if i could wipe out the feral pest in his barns as hes had an inspection recently and they were mentioned .Went down with josh off the site and my boy to have a look .Weve thinned them out here before but now its zero tolerance time .Shot a few in the cubicle shed but got into them in the next shed that holds the dry cows .A few managed to fly out into the darkness but returned later to be added to the tally.Josh uses a weirach hw80 and my boy and me use the crossman ratcatcher ,both in .22.Had most in the next shed though above some silage .Finished with 55 head of vermin although it looks more .Get some pics on soon .Impressed with my boys first real outing with a gun .He accounted for 6 with no wounding .

Damn good shooting chaps. If you dont want to damage the roof use bisley pest control pellets and shoot from a sporting distance. Hollow point pellets will be useless after they have hit the pigeon. Also hit them in the chest, more chance of missing a twitchy pigeons head. Quote Link to post
