Well this afternoon Ed said he needed a fix.. So he went into the house and grabbed the new Crosman Trail NP .22 he has been clutching for 4 days with dear life...:) While I was in the shop working on a new project he was hunting greys..:) Here is his tally for this afternoon.. He hit the grey in the fuse box on left side of head and exited just above shoulder on right side. This shot was approximatly 30 yards and up 30 feet high in a tree. Beeman Field Target Specials .22 was the lead used..:)

It was a rough day hehe I've been fighting a cold bug but this guy made me feel much better. The Trail can make short work of nuters.Ed

Great shooting on the squirrel. Looks like you guys are having some nice weather in your neck of the woods. A late season storm is expected to give us 4 to 6 inches of snow by tomorrow morning. Just as the ground squirrels here were starting to get active. I'm doing my best not to buy that gun and seeing this and reading posts about it is doing nothing for the well being of my marriage.
-
Nice shot Ed.
My Trail NP really likes the Beeman FTS pellets too. Good velocity and accurate as well.
-
Great shootin buddy :) That nutter never knew what hit him :)
Looks like a fine meal :)
Hope ya kick that cold and feel better buddy...

Thanks and Genes squirrels don't know any better here, never been hunted hehe. Ed

Thanks Jeff and I've waited a long time for a Gray, the first one and had to travel all the way to SC hehehe. Ed
-
Good work Ed! That gun sure is nice......You and Gene have set me on a path, and given me much to think about. Thanks.
-
Great shooting there Ed! Glad you had some time off to hunt!
-
Thanks guys and already spotted some this morning playing tag, see what the day bring's. Ed
-
Good shooting Ed. Hope you get that cold bug just as dead as the nutter.
Too bad you guys don't have an XL to play with also. If I wasn't having such fun with mine, I'd a shipped it down there for you two to try ! :D

great shooting ed!

I think we know the real storey here. Gene is making his house guests hunt for thier dinners. And has disquised it as having fun shooting and hunting and such.
Hey, whats for breakfast?
-
Yep.... dispite all that I have said, Gene ain't no dummy and is setting Ed up. No free meals there...git yer own. Wait.... I shouldn't have said that. :o I was over to Gene's today and he sprung for Ed's and my lunch. And it wernt no Mexican.
And I ain't no dummy. They were here yesterday and I didn't offer them nuttin 8) 8) . He ain't trickin' me :p :p :p
-
Man, you cats are just having wayyy too much fun over there. Squirrel tacos anyone?
-
Ed`s got a great shot. Nutter never knew what hit him.
-
Thanks guys and Bob mentioned that the Squirrels were getting pretty thick at his place too. hmmm. :o :) Ed
-
nice shooting
-
Thanks bro.Ed
-
Well the truth is Bob forgot his wallet and Ed left his wallet over at Bob's the other day...:)
-
Thanks again and I dropped another first thing this morning, get Gene to post some pic's. I called him in with a Squirrel call that Gene had. Ed
-
You guys look to be havin a good ole time. Tell gene ta answer his dang phone every now and then..
-
Hehehehe will do brother. Ed
-
Nice shot Ed!! How did you end up in SC? I know you didn't run out of squirrels in Michigan! hehehe.
I haven't logged on in 6-7 days (because of frigging work) and Ed has relocated to Papa Bear's already? :)
Ed does not need anyone to feed him. He shoots his next meal :) But hey, if Gene or Bob offered, why would Ed say no? 8)
I 'd personally put him to work and then feed him :)
Ed, come on up to NY and bring some tools. My house needs a lot of work - I 'll feed you well :) You won't go hungry here! And while you 're down there, bring Timmy with you. I really need a carpenter. I am not kidding. My son has destroyed the house and I have no time to fix the broken doors and holes in the wall, and, and, I can go on and on. I have enough work for someone for about a week - full time. I don't have any time to do anything myself. All I do now is work and it sucks.
My porch needs a ceiling too.. oh and a new rug downstairs :) Home Depo only 2mi. away.. I pay you fix/install stuff and get free food plus a few bucks $ for beer.. and the most important thing: Lots of nice guns to shoot with a 4500psi tank that's got plenty of air for 40+ refills! That's 1,500-2K shots :)

I've been down here for about a week now brother Harry picking up the tuning tip's from the pro's Gene and Bob. Nothing's better then hanging with the two of them and getting the pro's guide to tuning oh and dropping a few nutters in the process hehehe. Ed :)
