The .22 is better suited for squirrels.
If you can find it, Lousiann Wild Rice mix is good for squirrel.
The kind that youuse hamburger or chicken with.
Just fix the squirrel instead of hamburger or chicken, it will be tender and tastey.
The squirrel tail is wantedfor flie tieing.
You can a vest made for hunting squirrel, with a big pouch made on the back, or a dove vest will do.
You put them in the back, just make sure they are dead.
Since you have a bolt action rifle, get some extra magizines, to bring loaded.
A squirrel or dove vest will have pockets to put the magizines in.
Check with your local Community College, in the taxidermy part.
There studints will want the hides.
If you get a good one have it mounted, the students will love to do it for you.
Espesaly if you get an albino squirrel.
As far as hunting squirrel, just walk slowly, and stop, and stand next to a tree, or sit down next to a tree, or stump.
Just stay still for arount 10 minutes, squirrels have a short attention span.
The will forget you are there and move.
Carry a pocket of small rocks, about the size of a nickle.
If a squirrel goes on the back side of a tree, stand still, and throw a stone on the other side,
on the ground past were the squirrel is.
The squirrel will come around to your side, and then you can get a shot.
Take two compass's with you.
You always can get lost and a compass will help you get back.
The extra ons is incase you loose the first one.
Beleave me you can loose the first one, I have.
Alway put a peace of paper where some one can find, with where you are hunting at.
So incase you don't come out, there will be a starting point for some one to find you.
Carry some TP, you will need it at some point.
And some bottled water, and a snack.
If you hunt all day carry an extra pair of real wool socks, and change them about lunch time.
It will make youfeel rested, and recharged, it really works.
Wool keeps you warm even when wet.
You don't need all camo, but it helps.
Don't forget the hunter orange.
Take a buddy or two with you.
I hope this is helpfull.
Good Luck
