What he said

[ferretgirl29 235]

thanks but what if ya dig down to it suerly a 12bore would make a mess 2 foot away

[Guest JohnGalway]

.410 I guess if you're intending on shooting it in the hole (no pun intended). If it bolts though you'd need a 12ga I'd imagine.

[Dan_Smiff 2]

Like John said - much safer to use a 12 bore, if it bolts a 410 will be little use

[Guest JohnGalway]

Shooting stuff pretty close with a 12 gauge only put's a hole roughly 1in round in whatever you shoot..it not the mess you want to be worrying about when shooting a 12 gauge in hole's..it your ear's because boy do they fecking ring blasting of in hole's.. ..

From someone who's lost 50% hearing clarity in one ear and 20% in the other, protect your hearing when shooting please It's not a nice way to be and it never gets better.

Again 12g is best with some size 5 steel shot, works every time. .p.s invest in some sound deadening ear mufffffs

[Guest JohnGalway]

Peltor would be one of the best ear defenders, just remember that ear plugs won't fully protect you

 

I'd got for BB's as SS said.

Definately 12g with BBs used that method many times and very effective
