Default chipmunk hunting

what is a good pellet or bb gun to hunt chipmunks with? I have a crosman m-16 looking thingthat will go through a can.

Also is there a season for chipmunk hunting?

just about anything crosman makes will do fine. DONT BUY THE SPRING LOADED PISTOL! other than that if it throws the lead pellet it will kill the little rascal.

I hear those chipmunks can be hard to kill and quite dangerous when wounded. I'd suggest a 30.06 or 7MM Magnun.

All right guys, leave my Chipmonks alone.
OtherwiseI'll tell them to attack and nibble your ankles to pieces.

Chipmonks, along with Chickadees are my only safe-from-harms animals.
Too small to eat, and have always made good companions and early warning devices for all of my hunting. I always leave a small pile of seeds for the ones living near my regular stand when I am done for the day.
