Missouri has an abundance of squirrels and a season that starts around Memorial Day and lasts through mid-February.
Still searching for the best Brunswick Stew (that's the original from Brunswick County, Virginia version) recipe. (I will not eat butterbeans!!)
I grew up hunting squirrels with my Sears .410 while my Pop head-shot them with his J. C. Higgins auto .22. He liked short hollow points for squirrels. They still work if you can find them.
