Others My new Gunnar setup

Took out a kingfisher @90 with the .25 I have.
Oh wow I never knew they were pests, I once hand dug a fish pond with my dad when I was teen. 3 feet deep, 12 feet long, lined with plastic, edged in wood......stocked with my prize gold fish breeders. One sat morning I wake up and come down stairs and my sister was like hey! look at that cool blue heron! I freaked and grabbed my pellet gun but she scared it away before I could shoot em. No idea if they were protected but if I had my way he woulda been compost.

Good day sir, I have 3 ponds stocked with trout, bass ect with a feeder stream that native trout swim up and spawn. Protected or not anything messing around with the fish is getting taken out per my law lol 😂. Keeping the natural feed for the fish like crayfish, salamanders, frog ect is also priority.

I feel the same way about my koi pond :)

I made $100 off the baby fish one year (20years back?) ...That's alot of money when your a kid! Battling the wife to build a small pond on my property someday again. I can use the dirt for a nice pellet backstop for my pellet trap too 😏 I think the Gunnar is a very interesting rifle with not alot of coverage. I learned about their existence on HAM!

The shot I most regret taking was at a kingfisher...it was when my Beman C1 was brand new and I'd never had a pellet gun with as much velocity and accuracy potential as the one I now had. It was a down hill shot and the kingfisher was on a piling that retained the standing boom. Line of sight range was 80 or more yds. but horizontal was closer to 40 or 50. Anyway, I held a bit over and took the open sight shot....and the kingfisher flopped off the piling and thrashed in the water for a few seconds and expired. Always liked kingfishers and never intended to kill one but I did. They never bothered the fish pond we had but in order to do that they'd have to get past the otters and raccoons...another story altogether. If I'd ever had a predation problem with them, I'm sure I wouldn't feel bad about taking one out.
 
Having grown up with BB guns and pellet rifle, then firearms, my family, had a lot of long talks with me about the responsibility of shooting an animal. To this day I have never ever fired a warning shot or a see what this will do scenario.

lol my mom also informed me very sternly that anything I shot and killed, for me to be sure I was hungry because I was going to eat it. I guess she just wanted to make sure I wasn’t going to shoot a cat or dog.
