Airgun Hunting
Hey,
anybody ever executed felines with an airgun?
What's your weapon of choice?
The other night, I took out 7 of them with a CZ200S fitted with a 3-9x40 scope. The one shot was at 40meters behind the head, whammo, no more garden crapping. mgun

You may wish to provide more details so as to establish a basis for a later "Grand Slam" certificate.

That depends. Does shooting them into a brick wall count?

O.K. I forgot to tell you guys, I also took out 2 crats the other night with my Mathews MQ1 bow with fieldpoints, the one was sitting in the street smiling at me when I nailed the bugger, he took off with the arrow halfway through him, tried to get through a fence, then the arrow abruptly stopped him while he was jumping through the fence! So he turned around and ran across the street again and I tried to run him over with the Isuzu, and missed, the other one took an arrow through the shoulders. It costs me about $10 an arrow, but it sure as hell's worth it!!!!!!!!!!!

You ought to use broadheads, so the cats don't run home with the hard evidence. Wink

If possible elevate your shooting position when using fieldpoints. If you "stake" them down, most will turn into clockwise "spinners", a rare few into counter-clockwise "unwinders".

I use a Thompson Center with a 10 inch 22 LR bbl, loaded with Agula Colibri (really quiet) Waever 2.5 scope. One could even use it in the city. Although I would never do that, cuz its illeagle.

I would. I have. Ferals roam everywhere, they needn't think they are safe in the City Limits. Those boundries only influence DimoCRATS and Sheep. beer
