Floured and fried, and then put them in a pressure cooker for a bit and the meat falls off the bone.

Winchester 75 with Remington Subsonic HP's, or my standard barrel Ruger 10/22 with Velociters or the same Subsonic HP's.
Best I ever shot was a friends BRNO #1 with Leupold 4X and lightened trigger. It was about perfect, Light as a feather, shot eyeballs out with ease with CCI pistol match ammo!

I had to use the 410 barrel on something and no rabbits or grouse could be found, I got 3 greys and a Black, with the 410, but had to be very close, as it didnt work to well, much past 25yrds. I mostly use my 94/22, but realy want to try my savage 1899 22hp, with some 60 grain cast bullets a buddie make for me! cant wait till sept 15th, when our small game season opens! here in michigan!

Nice rifles! I particularly like the blackpowders! I use mostly a Henry Golden Boy (no pics ) or the Taurus Judge that I just picked up. But, my favorite squirrel weapon is this, which I turned to shortly after the little rodents started decimating our garden:

Pretty sure I saw that same trap used by Les Stroud on an episode of Survivor Man on Discovery or A&E. It worked well for him and he slept with a full belly!

Yeah but he probably would have ate the peanut butter instead of using it for bait!

My favorite is an old Remington pump .22, but the most accurate is an even older Remington .22 bolt single shot. Sometimes when hunting with a grandson who's too little to use a .22, he and I carry our .177 air guns. Sorry, no photos. I'm not smart enough to run the digital camera, let alone get the pics onto here.
Think direction first, then velocity.
