Default The 20 Vartarg vs Ground Squirrels

Now that I am retired, I am finally getting to do more ground squirrel shooting. Friday ,we were sitting back 200 yards or so sniping them, and the 20 Vartarg certainly destroys them.

Looks like they swallowed a lit firecracker. Dinnertime for a few crows. Oh, wait a minute. Stick around and knock off a few crows when they show up.

Bait for more ground squirrels. They are carnivorous little buggers. Burt

Try a few up close and see what's left then.
that's good results for 200yds.
Though a bit overkill on such small critters.
I guess dead is dead so it don't matter much.

thanks for sharing.

I will be trying my 20tactical out next week. I will see what the 39gr Blitzking at 3900fps does. I also saw a large badger that I will try to get if he shows himself again.
