Looks like the Evol “worked out” those squirrels without breaking a sweat…

Nice, so sweet you can put your new Evol to immediate work on them squirrels. A very Merry Christmas for you, the squirrels better clear out.

thank you very very much! A very very Merry Christmas to and yours boss. : )
as for the squirrels they will pay the price as they enter the orchard.

Aye hard worked fruit producing groves and orchards require a thank you payment.
Especially from cute fuzzy but very destructive communities. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

the squirrels caught a break this fine morning i missed two, and they all scrambled never seen another. walked back to the house trying to figure how i could have missed. oh well
then it hit me, yesterday we where shooting 50 plus yards and i think i forgot to zero the scope so went to check and sure enough i forgot to zero it. i have the zero stop set so i just cranked it back done the wifes was not zerod nor the .30 cal so today they will make it to tomorrow if they are brazen enough to head back tomorrow i dont think they will be so lucky. : )

 

[pan60]

well the snow may make them frisky but the EVOL tells them its nap time

Another EVOL morning!​

the second one was a challenge the first shot i could barley see him but the secound shot it was over.
two others squirrels but they bailed out and hit the ground at a dead run so never got a shot at them.

 

[pan60]

Hey Pan60 you using the .30 still or the .22 evol on them squirrels? I shot .177 all my life only going to .22 last year. Man the extra FPE is nice, hard to got back for hunting! I imagine the .30 is reserved for the most destructive pests! I have cherry trees i planted on my property and once they turn even a hint of red every bird seems to be alerted to them. Turns into a war zone quick!! The buggers won't eat one and go, oh NOOO they will literally bite into 3 or 4 and never eat all of one. Also the odd Rabbit can do quite some destruction on young trees here, more so in winter though.

 

[pan60]

i am ussing the .22 mostly but the .30 does an awesome job when i go out with a buddy it the .30 but in town its the .22

 

[pan60]

pop!

 

[pan60]

and so the new season begins.
maybe a tad over 30 yards head shot.
I could just barley see his head popped him just a tad behind the ear.

Congrtats on connecting! I took a shot at a woodchuck today at 85y that should have been nothing and missed. My fault I'm sure. I keep putting off getting a tripod, but I think it's getting to be that time. That, or just give up on pesting, ...yeah, probably not likely. I just know that my guns lately have been shooting way better than me. Every time I go back to check on the bench, the results rub in a little more. I really hate shooting from a bench, but the proof is there, the gun can do it, I can't. I am blaming age more than coffee, I'm going to have some more coffee now, that's my thing too, and I'm still really good at it!

Nice shooting! Just noticed a huge patch of very dead grass on my property and checked it out...some animal (probably a squirrel ) dug up a massive section, it will probably actually die now Between them and the moles....

I was shooting my mini a bit ago after fixing a leak in the foster fitting and I could not hit put with it went to the bench scope was not rite dial it in air up when back and off again so I am thinking I am not feeling the love for this scope I will put the new one on, and my mounts where loose LOL I bought this secound hand and it was spot on so I never messed with it.
and after getting the scope off I find I dont have the correct rings for the midas tac so I guess I will put it back on for now save a little money get some new rings and some lead to boot.

Lucky you, fixing your equipment is easy, losing your mojo sucks! I'm back to longer guns and now it seems a tripod is in my future. When I think back on it, the first picture I saw of a bullpup airgun was Ed with his buddies all shooting Matadors on tripods before tripod shooting was even a thing. What goes around comes around I guess.

 

[pan60]

I can see a tripod in my futer I mean It make life better or easier at least so why not.
as soon as I am not spending money on something else I am going to get one.
