RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I just purchased a CZ 453 .22LR w/ single set trigger. Iscoped it witha Burris 4-12x32 Compact w/Traget Knobs. The trigger was easily adjustable and I've got the regular trigger set at 3Lbs and the single set at 12Oz. I haven't gotten to hunt with it yet but it's awasome on the range.

Make your first shot count!

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I got a Ruger 77/17 Varmint in the Spring. I put a new sear in so the trigger pull is only 2 Lbs. Pretty accurate at the range and makes a mess out of pickles, peaches and such. Vaporizes them!!! Have it outfitted with a 6.5X24x50 Barska scope. Pretty sweet rig... Only took it out once for squirrel but didn't see anything. Going up state (PA) over the weekend. An old buddy of mine asked me to go up to his cabin. He says the place is filthy with squirrel. Claims to get his limit in only a couple of hours. I can't wait.

Mossberg Maverick 88, and Winchester 9422 with iron sights. I want to get more into Black Powder squirrel hunting. I just have to figure out a way to make some extra money to pay for the gun(s).

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

For most small game like squirrels and rabbits I use my Savage .22. For grouse, Remington 870 12 gauge.

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I use a Ruger Mark II .22 LR with hallowpoints. But it usually takes 2 shots (in the abdomen) to take it down. It works like a dream thogh :).

Isn't it a beauty??????????

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I use a bolt actin .410 for rabbits, and a .22lr (Rossi pump) for squirrels. I have an NEF .223 for varmints, but haven't been able to break it in yet.

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I use a Remington 22 magnum for rabbit and squirrel.

RE: what kind of gun do you use for small game
 

I have a Marlin .22 Lever action when I'm looking a challenge.
I also have a single shot .410 when i'm looking for meat.
Those are for squirrles, rabbits.
I use a remington 870 20 gauge foe all of my bird hunting.
