Black Powder Squirrels

[brad arnett]

Computer hiccuped and I don't know what happened the first time. :sad:

It was a nice day to be out chasing squirrel's and burning up some powder!!! It was about 35*, calm, and sunny and the squirrel's were out as well. My brother and I seen 7, and got 5 of them. I shot 3 with the Crockett .32 while he shot a pair with the TC 12ga. Ironically, I missed one with the 12ga :confused: and he missed one with the .32 :dizzy: so those 2 made it for another day.

Here's a pic with me on the right and my brother on the left

What kind of load did you use in the 12ga? I've got a T/C New Englander too and would like to give tree rats a try with it. Does yours have the screw in Chokes and if so which one did you use?

[brad arnett]

I know he was running 80/80 on the load with #4 shot. That one also has the choke's and I think he had a MOD in it.

That is awesome... one day i will have a 32 cal muz. I have always wanted one since the day me and my dad got tired of gun hunted and wished we had our bows we took our muz. out and i shot a squirrel and he shot a rabbit... both head shots with muz. his was on the run as was mine.... will never forget that day... so amazed i hit that sucker running. because we said head shots only.... but the 50 cal was obviously still a bit more... we keep talking about getting 32's but never got them... some day.... some day...

awesome photo and congrats

The longer you wait to try it.....the sooner you'll tell yourself you should've started.....it's alot of fun goin' at it when you leave the scoped .22 at home:cool:
