: A few more birdies today
: May 22, 2007, 08:13:33 AM
My dad tossed out old bread this morning and attracted some starlings.. WOOT for me, I grabbed the AR and went to town on them. Mostly shot from about 30 yards, furthest was around 36-38 yards, using crosman pointed. Its like freakin AP's on birds. one of them didnt know it was hit till about 10 feet in the air, then did a dive bomb towards earth. Most of them never heard it coming, but now I think there getting used to the whisp sound from this gun.

Oh well here is some pics !!

Its really weird shooting when you can see the pellet flying downrange. What a fun toy to have :)  I also chrony'd it today.. 830ish on a full Charge with 7.9 grain pellets. Nippin at the heels of a springer :) hehehehehe   Bird slayer.

Good shootin! I hates Grackles. Looks like you and I would make great neighbors. Workin together maybe we could rid the neighborhood of them.

The other day I saw bunches of grackles and a couple starlings in a large, freshly mowed area. Every time I went past that area all I could think about was how nice it would be to get permission to sit atop the shed beside that property for about a half hour LOL.
