A good question by Jonjon i think, - what do any of us do with our bags of vermin ? I`m with Mitch on the fried squirrel aspect. For me there is nothing out there to even compare to deep fried Squirrel. Again, nice shooting Mitch. 3 Quote Link to post

Five different woods on one perm ,with Chestnut , beech , hazel , fir and pine must be about 18 - 20 acers altogether . From October - end of April this year shot 52 and from October so far 22 . Should reach about the same if not a few more Great for pigeon's as well, had 10 in the last three visits shooting the FX Crown .22 running @ 31 FT/LBS . Soon as the pellet hits they are dead , no flapping on the way down ,just straight down 1 Quote Link to post

Good shooting, the crown seems like a useful and versatile gun in FAC. Nice one. 1 Quote Link to post
