Does anyone know if it's legal to shoot squirrels on 2 or 4 acres of land in PA? She just opens her front door and blasts away with her shotgun. Is it even legal to shoot squirrels at all in that state if it's not hunting season or if you're not on designated "hunting" grounds? She wants to fire my .44 mag and my Ruger 22/45, so I just want to make sure everything is kosher! If I let her do it, I want it to be a quick and clean kill - I don't want anything suffering. Would a .44 mag and the Ruger 22/45 kill instantly? Like I said, I never fire outside at all - I just go to the shooting range.
A .44 mag is waaayyy to small! You need to up it, to at least a 7mm that way they will for sure not suffer.
