A 22LR Rifle,prolly takes 95% or better of the victims here.
Hint...............

There is no game bird that I hate enough to shoot them sitting any more. It is all about what you are looking for. I used to think great big piles of birds was where "it" was at, too.

I'd rather knock the head off a Sitter,than dig pellets outta a Flyer.
It improves tablefare.

I got a 410 O/U for the job... I have about 300 .410rounds. Need gun! Gotta start working yard sales for a cheapie. Single shot would do. That pellet rifle on sitting birds works pretty well. Neither the gun nor I is/am accurate enough for head shot at 30 yards, but I haven't found any pellets in the bodies either. But 5 last fall isn't really that large a sample. Does that qualify as "great piles of bodies"?

Salvage and Rossi make combo guns - .22 LR / .410
Best 'o both worlds.

The combos are pieces of schit.
A GOOD 22LR is tough to keep pace with.

I don't run a combo gun - mostly cuz you can't get one in SS. I run a T/C G1 Custom Shop 221 FB for my needs. Load it down to Horny velocities.

Cool, pretty stoked. Now dumb question, will the crack of a 22 clear the area of black bears? Wanna keep the main thing the main thing, but I mean if they are just sitting there....

Hint................ True - but I've found grouse don't like "warning shots" much.... . Even less when they don't get one.
