For those that don't follow regulation updates from MDC, squirrel season is as follows: SQUIRREL REGULATIONS Valid Permits
  • Archer's Hunting
  • Daily Small Game Hunting Permit
  • Small Game Hunting and Fishing Permit
  • Small Game Hunting Permit
Season & LimitsSquirrelPrimary Season: Sat, 05/23/2015 - Mon, 02/15/2016
Daily Limit: 10
Possession Limit: 20
Additional Information: During Deer SeasonDuring daylight hours of the November portion of the firearms deer hunting season, squirrels and rabbits may not be chased, pursued or taken with the aid of dogs in Butler, Carter, Dent, Iron, Madison, Oregon, Reynolds, Ripley, Shannon, or Wayne counties. During the November and antlerless portions (in areas where open) of the firearms deer season, other wildlife may be hunted only with a .22 caliber or smaller rim-fire or a shotgun and shot not larger than No. 4. This does not apply to waterfowl hunters, trappers, or to landowners on their land.
 
Yep, I'm excited as well. I use a crosman Titan in .22, and a Benjamin disco in .22 for most of my squirreling. But I use everything from a walther falcon hunter in .25 to a 1377 from time to time. I like to mix it up. My youngest uses a crosman custom shop 2400kt in .22 and my oldest uses a crosman m4-177. My wife likes to "borrow" the disco for squirrels and starlings.

I would love to have a .40 for the deer. Maybe when I get rich :). 

What area are you in? I'm near stl

Finally was able to take a picture of the second squirrrel of the season. Benji 392 with minor airway passages bored. No chrono testing yet, but I am getting there. Also, I'm working on some db readings with my db reader to compare mac1's supressor/moderator for the benji 39X series to stock. Predator polys by the way. 16 grain full weight pellet retention. Lodged in the opposite side of the neck. Expanded to about .25. I feel like though they're 16gr, and jsb's are 15gr, that the jsb's hit a little harder. Anyone else feel that? Like, maybe the predators lose energy from having to crush that cone first. Either way, two in the freezer so far.

If you know which conservation area you will be hunting, you can look up the regulations on that area using MDC's website. www.mdc.mo.gov 
Most areas I know of require .22 rim fire or shotguns. Maybe a group of us should submit a request for a regulation change. On private land, you can use whatever you want. On someone else's private land you should always ask what they would prefer to be used.
