Shot two squirrels with my 10 ga. One was running and spiraling on a branch I just pulled and let the shot fly and had a direct hit I guess. Next shot about 5her seconds later was running and then stopped looked broad side and I out that bead on him. Used federal 1 1/2 oz of #T at 1450 the fps . Im a big fan of #T shot it gets good penetration and sufficient pattern out the 10 ga

Use enough gun...
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.

I noticed and I don't know if it was because its steel shot or #Tit but most were all pass through and they didn't "drt" shots. But it works I. Use my 10 ga because it doesn't have poi problems like my 1210 and 20 ga . And I don't use a 22 because im afraid were the bullet might go. I know a guy in Mississippi who use a old parkers sxs 8 ga on squirrels at like 60at yards . I do like me some squirrel hunting. Because they move in chaotic patterns got to be quick. These shots were 20the yards away and they were 30 ft up
