Sika 6-Point would tell you to use the 8g with 1 1/2 oz of 7 1/2 shot! Shoots them right off his roof. Never mentions how he has some water dripping through his roof in a steady rain though.

Back when I was knee high to a grasshopper (you gettin' this Garry?) the tool of choice was a Winchester 67 with iron sights. Used to sit on the side-hill at my Pappy's in the oak stand and pick off half a dozen in a sit. Pappy's farm is long gone but I still have that rifle.

I agree Mike. I've had my Win 67 since 1952 and its still going strong on squirrels and chipmunk's plus several other vermin.

Okay, Mike, I'm taking notes! So...this was back when we had all original parts, yes? Just checkin' for an acquaintance.

(What the heck is a Win. 67? A bolt action?)
