This is topic from another forum created in May 2015,I hope it will be interesting 

Today I went to hunt starlings with my FX Royale 400 22 cal unregulated and scope was Tac Vector FFP 6-25x56...
I heard the voice of the pheasant. I slowly toward him and noticed him in the field.
Wind was blowing from him to me, so it could not me.At 50 meters I decided to shoot. And here are the results 

Shot is not perfect, but after the impact he ran 15 meters and dropped dead. As you can see the pellet passed through it and destroy the lungs.
I shot out of hand without rest and the pellet was JSB Exact Jumbo 15 grains.
Salute

Pheasant can be really tasty. I miss seeing them run around.

I shoot lots of pheasant here in the Midwest but sadly no rifles allowed only shotguns in flight but still a blast especially with good dogs.

Pheasant is in fact a wild hen - has a similar anatomyPheasants are very tasty, in some European restaurants are delicacies that are very expensive meal.I caught this in the private hunting ground of my friends, so I do not bother with government regulations.
It was very interesting to hunt with PCP than a shotgun
