Cannons for squirrels ?
Now there's a novel idea !

I use a Ruger 10-22 with 3-9 scope or a Marlin 60 with 3-9 scope out to 60 yards . Shooting squirrels with a shotgun is for sissies .

My first rifle was a ruger 10/22. I don't know how many squirrels have fallen to it. It is still the most accurate .22 I have. I bought an old marlin 39mountie last winter and had a blast rabbit hunting and I am eager to hunt squirrels this fall. Season here in MO. just opened up but I am terrified of snakes so the tree rats can wait. My wife shoots a .22 browning lever action. She has a little trouble with the grays.

I use a Daisy 22SG with a 4x32 scope. I got some cool hollowpoints form predatorpellets.com They are a little heavy for the daisy at 17gr but if I had a Beeman...
I can't wait to get my marlin 982vs 22WMR. They will never know...
