Bullet Hole Bailey

I have a fox problem and I was going to use my bow but for a 50 yard shot would
a Gamo Shadow 100 work ok?

I want them to drop fast so would a .177 pellet gun drop a gray fox at 40 yards?

Head shot or chest shot?

I've never tried it and suggest you dont either.

probably not, I shot a grey with a .17 hmr at 10 feet. double lunged it and it still ran 20 yards.

I am with Browning it will probably not, where you live are you able to use a 22mag of some sorts???? but wait a minute if you check back later there will be a fella on here that will tell you he has done it and tell you how. He will have to google search it first, I think his screen name has a 09 at the end of it.

No, lumberjack, you're dead wrong.

He only uses a Savage .223 tactical.


I cant imagine the pellet gun working in this situation.

I doubt .177 will suffice for what you want,50 yards??Why bother with such a close bunny shot anyway? What you really need to makethis sporting isaSavage tactical .223 preferably your uncles,At a range of at least 500yds, Because anything less then 400 is way to easy, Of course you will need WOLF FMJ ammo for this shot

you guys almost made me spit my skoal on the computer screen!!!!

We are all here to have a good time and help one another and have some kind of a sense of humor unlike 09

I doubt the .177 will perform up to standards although I do think it COULD kill it. I don't recommend trying it.

I have that same pellet gun. I have a hard time killing blackbirds let alone anything that big.

Use that gun for the smaller stuff. I wouldn't go any bigger than rabbits with it.
