Rat shot, bird shot, same thing. For over 50 ft I use the
CB rounds.

It's spring here (80 degrees today) and the rats are
running the rocks
and soon we will have many running all over the peninsula
here. I'd
rather shoot them then see the dock hands poison them.


Do you eat them?


Sighted in the scope today at lunch. Can hit a dime at 45
ft from a
slightly rocking boat.

Maybe a bit of after dinner sport tonight.


oh Joe, you sure have the life.

Only problem is CB rounds jam.

Quoting a real hunter.... "Boy... you can always adjust aim... but ya can't
adjust power.... shoot a man's round!" ....this guy shot a .500 H&H
Nitro Express with 500gr nickle jacketed rounds. Shot elephants and deer
with the same gun.

I once shot an elephant wearing my pajamas.

How he got into them, I'll never know.

Nope... what distance is the throw set at?

Ha, I knew you were going to ask that as soon as I sent the
post.

For a Boy Scout test....place match in crack of stump,
standing in front of stump, chop down on match, count how
many strokes it took.

I just bought a Gammo air rifle at Dicks Sporting for $80. Vel = 1000 fps.
Killed 2 squirrels in less than a minute from 45 yards. It does have a
scope.

Joe,

The best Rat Rifle is any American Pellet Rifle, Cheap Ammo., Quite
operation, no registration, no gun powder. Powerful enough to stop
vermin but pretty much harmless to humans in an accident.

I don't wan't to just **** them off Thom.
The CB rounds are cheap as dirt and quiet, yet make rats fly.
One already chewed the wiring harness on the car.
