Went down to the dairy that is no more, they do keep ducks, chickens, Guinea hens and Peacocks. And do still have at least two dozen cows. Anyway the action was slow today I had two sparrow kills at 25 and 35 yards…. Was about to leave when I noticed a flock of pigeons on top of the pictured silo. I got as close as the hay wagon you see me bending over. 68 range finder measured yards. 3 MOA of holdover and 1 MOA of hold off for the wind. Four back to back kills. My wife took the pictures of me from behind. In one of the live pictures you can see the pigeon at the shot crash diving into the lower roof. I dropped one bird on top of the silo, so I climbed up their to take a photo and to drop the body down. The Ghost was simply murderous today. I typically leave pigeons alone if they are in pairs, but this was a flock and I will be back…

Thanks Randall, the Ghost was as impressive for me today as the Compatto you helped me decide on was way back when… That Compatto made pigeon kills out to 104 yards… In my backyard I do some incredible plinking with the Ghost Carbine out to 102 yards on objects much smaller than a pigeons vitals. The pigeons at 68 yards appeared huge through my scope and it seem I couldn’t miss. My wife was there incidentally because my dog wanted to harass the fowl and cows there.🙈 Was only allowed an hour by my wife and dog.🤓

Great shooting & pics. Looks like the pooch had enough ! I read" silo & climbed up ", and thought ,DANG he's got more leg than me !! After seeing the photos I
was relieved to see the feed bin was what you were referring too ( I'm still not allowed to climb those either !) You've got a great spot there.

Thanks… Riley was pooped he tires quickly in the hot sun. I could’ve left the pigeon up on the feed bin and an opportunis hawk would’ve done the cleanup. But I wanted to see the view…

What’s the relevance of your thread jacking video to my post?

If "satisfaction" had a sound it would the "tick" of the shot and the reverberating "THWAAAP" of a sparrow detonating.

I “detonated“ two sparrows prior to the pigeons… One was so “detonated” it was literally ”eviserated”… That said why the thread jack? You and @M4Slugger need to start your own thread…

Grain bins are short, wide metal cylinders with peaked roofs for storing dry grains like corn and soybeans, while silos are tall, slender, often concrete structures with dome-shaped roofs designed to store fermented, moist materials like silage. Bins provide dry, ventilated storage for harvested grains, whereas silos utilize fermentation to preserve fodder for livestock.
