Hey, Rich,
My Dad always used a .22. He liked short hollow points and mounted a high powered rifle scope on his .22 rifle. He would not shoot unless he could see the head. I waited on the "other side of the tree" when I was his "dog" at age 6 while he zeroed in on one in the top of the tree. It seemed like hours waiting for him to shoot, but they (at least in my memory) always fell dead with a shot to the head.
How 'bout post a photo or two of your squirrel hunt? Good shooting!
