the enigma Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You just can't beat droppin a magpie. They make a very testing target,so it's really satisfying when you nail one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit.slayer.no.1 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 i have to say by far the best kill has to be a rabbit, as some like to kick after shot and they can do some flips. but i also love the way crows just drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garden gun Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Whatever is "in plague" at the time. Woodies at the start of 2011, but we are getting a steady stream of squirrels at the minute. Tracking down No 8 at the minute. Mrs gun is leading 6-1 in dropping them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twitchynik Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Squirrel with air rifle. Can't beat the thwack in the belly from a .22 pellet. ****ers to get out of a tree if they get hung up, mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catweazle Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Squirrel with air rifle. Can't beat the thwack in the belly from a .22 pellet. ****ers to get out of a tree if they get hung up, mind. You'll find a headshot drops them cleaner, my favourite quarry too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitchynik Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You'll find a headshot drops them cleaner, my favourite quarry too. I found that when I was under them just under their front legs was a good spot esp if their head is moving and body isn't. Always worked for me with .22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albion Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 The one they shot Doctor Who in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFN Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Different quarry - different techniques - different pleasures. Sitting in a hedge/hide in late autumn watching pigeons close their wings and drop into your pattern is pretty special but I love the challenge of spotting and stalking a rabbit. Not keen on rats and corvids though as half the pleasure is in the eating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I like shooting most Air-Rifle quarry but I do particularly like shooting Crows or Magpies!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexterboyz Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 its gotta be a toss up between rabbit & sqirrel! rabbit for the enjoyment of the stalk, the headshot and the animation after a clean kill! but you cant beat a bit of deep fried squirrel, best meat in the world! they say elvis said so and i'v gotta agree with the KING!!!

the_haganizer Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Had to be rabbits, could be little ******* to get close enough to get a clean shot on when in the fields, and when I did get them then they were mighty fine eating!!
