A small dent in the greys

[Stuart1985 256]

Was out once again to see if i could make a small but enjoyable dent in the grey squirrel population.

 

Managed to take two males with both head shots.

 

The first one was taken while he was eating and it was a direct hit right in the middle of the top of his head, (22 yards) Stone dead.

 

Second was taken about 25 mins and was shot about 30-35 yards. Both clean kills.

 

 

 

 

 

Entry hole of .22

went for a bit of a plink today. i didnt manage one but my mate whos came with me a couple of times today got his first ever kill with my hw95k.. a few seconds earlier to him taking the shot it was in my crosshairs but moved its head behind a branch just before i got a shot lined up. no kill for new 97kt lol but im happy for my mate

Squizzer, slow cooked is simply divine alas far too scarce on my perms, but there is a reason they charge £50+ for one in the restraunts in London.

 

Excellent shots

traps similar to those. nothing in when i checked them this morning but i think i know why. i usually use peanuts which always do the trick but my dad got me monkey nuts instead and the squirrels arent keen on them
