Putting the hurt on crows. Whats your tally???

Gundigest · 03-23-2005, 07:06 AM

My Ruger 77 MKII .223 has killed its 5th crow out the back door. It has taken 1 at 140 yards, 3 at 165 yards and 1 at 175 yards. I put some steelhead guts out at 165 yards, they really bring them in. I have only missed 2. My dad got one at 165 yards with contender .223 also.

What is the furthest distance you have killed a crow at and with what caliber?

last year i killed about 800-1000 and this year was a little slow because of baseball but i would say maybe 400-600 tops i allways use a 12 or 20 guage though

however i did shoot one with my 243 that was maybe 100 yards away.

Crow hunting has been real slow this year ,only 1 , 100 yds with the 22 hornet.
Experts are saying West Nile desease has killed lots of them.
