Squirrels 4 Crows 1
« on: March 01, 2010, 10:32:46 AM »
I had the day off today so I decided to head out on a scouting party.  I pulled into the spot where I was going to scout when I saw 2 crows in a tree they were about 30 yards away. I whipped out the AS2250XT and took aim on the big ones head. I pulled the trigger and the bird just dropped not even a shake rattle or roll. The other bird took flight and did circles for a long while making all sorts of noise. He was really *_*_*_*_*_*ed when I went to get the trophy pic. The other shots are of squirrels I bagged with the 2240.

Wow that is some good shooting, heck my hunting trips usually don't end up with as many critters as your scouting trips do.

Good shooting and nice pics.  I love the coloring on those ground squirrels, they seem like a great air gun target.  Wish I had some around here to shoot at  :)

You had a great day with that powerfull 2240 of yours.  Nice shooting!  I don't know how those crows stay for you until you get a shot off.  If they even think I am looking at them funny from 50yds out, they take off.  Nice job!
