Just "finished" up my crosman 2240 bottle gun build and got it sighted in at 40 yards with the field target trophy 13.66 in 5.53HS. Left it in the garage hoping this damn squirrel who I keep seeing in my chicken pen would show up. This is the 3rd this week I've got in there. Once they know where to go I think the others just follow the trail.
It finally popped out of the pen and made it over to the walnuts at the backstop I put out when I seen her this morning.
Waited til she grabbed a nut and settled in on top of the oak log I have there for them to, well, sit on and get shot.
She was facing directly toward me chomping on the nut. Sent one down range, right above the left eye.
I guess 13 fpe is plenty at 40 yards lol.
This is the 4th squirrel I've shot recently with no pass thru and they all were DRT. That energy dump really does make a difference. Oddly, all 4 of these squirrels were also females.
