: Finally got the pesky squirrel! (pictures)
: Tpatner412 June 06, 2010, 06:08:59 AM


So the squirrel that has been eluding me for the past couple of days came around again today and I finally got a good opportunity to take him out.  I watched him climb down my fence into the backyard while I was eating lunch and i stopped eating and grabbed the RWS 48.  I loaded a predator and shot for the vitals on the little bugger.  I got him in the stomach and he ran around my yard like a chicken with its head cut off for a few seconds before coming to a stop in the corner of my yard.  I loaded another predator seeing as he was not dead yet and put the cross hairs on his head a pulled the trigger.  I heard a loud whack and looked up to see the squirrel motionless.  Caught him right behind the ear.

Good shooting with the 48!  I had one that 's been getting into my attic the last few days but took care of him yesterday :)

Good shooting and way to follow up with another shot and put him down. Ed

Good work - and a great looking rifle, even if I can only see her legs.  :-)  Ya big tease.

Your powerful RWS Diana 48 sure put the hurting on him.  Great accurate shooting.
