Went out again today...

We've had two warm days in a row but are due to get cold and wet weather again soon. The squirrels will go underground somewhat if the weather turns too cold. All the ones we are shooting now are males. They break open the holes and come to the surface first. No females come out till later in the spring.

Anyway, 17 more in the bag so-to-speak.

My son shot 11 and I shot 6.

He used the beatup old Ruger 10/22 on his 11, topped with a Leupold 2x7 scope and I used the .223 and 6.5. I took an open area on the ranch we call "Zululand" due to the savanna-like mix of grass and thorn bushes where the wind was blowing hard and I had few shots as the critters were not very active. He went into my pine plantation and stalked them and saw lots more of them.

Here's the rifle he used. For stalking these things in the plantation it is a real killer:
