Those green Remingtons are powerful medicine for squirrels. Aren't they all 1 5/8 ounce loads?

our gray squirls are not that large usally but the fox squirl is very large and in the mississippi delta the black squirl is large...but the grays in my area are the most plentyful..usally ... the smaller they are the tender they are..bout all you can do with old large squirls is make dumpings out of them..charlie

got my 10 ga remington shells out this evening decided to open the box and check things out it turns out i had a coupla paper hull peters shells in there one was a load of bb and the other was a load of 2 s..decided these were a little to much for a squirl so put them away for a turkey hunt some day.well it turns out thatunder them 8 plastc remingtons there was 15 winchester western paper hull ten ga shells..the old price tag on the box said 5.25 its probably from the 60 s era price...well gota go find a box of 1 1/4 ounce for the parker 12 ga 3 frame....charlie
