RE: Would this be illegal?
I'm with Boudreax, I'd like to see you slingshot a firecracker 100yards. Actually ... you'd have to slingshot it more than that to get it on the other side of the gaggle. Otherwise they'd fly off AWAY from you.
22-250? That's how MOST of these guys that have all the bands around their necks get them. (That's not an accusation of you, TexasGeese. So don't lambast me.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>)
Most GW's would let you get away with a lot during the conservation order time.
