  I finally got him/her!! The garbage was spread about the yard again this am., the wife said GET HIM!!LOL!! I had nearly given up hope, as he/she has givin me the slip for some time now! Was the best ever,, one shot from the Diana 350 I refer to as "Chopper" was VERY decisive,, 20 yrds. this garbage raiding "Coon" went down  lights out!! Just a couple of death spins, that gave me time to reload & run up to him in "Swat Mode",, By the time I got there,, he was DONE!! I gotta post this now before it gets too late!! I FINNALLY GOT HIM FOLKS!!!!! Tim.

Tim, congratulations. I personally know the satisfaction that comes from getting a little well deserved revenge/payback on unwanted, unwarranted garbage raiders.Great Pic and conclusion to the saga.

Chopper-cide by People for the Elimination of Trashcan Attackers!  My guess on the time it took was a little off, but the outcome was never in doubt, Tim.

Nice job Tim!  Nothing can escape the mighty 350! :-)

I thought you got the possom but this is better.  He 's kind of young and not too fat.. but I 'm not surprised.  All he could find in your garbage  was probably beer cans and not much to eat :-)  Just kidding buddy!  Good shooting!  
Now that's worth stuffing and put in your trophy room.  I haven't seen "my racoon" since winter.  He probably just ventured out far because it was hard for him to find food in the cold or snow covered ground.  
So I take it you had the entire area lit up well?
