Charlie,

It's just got a regular splinter forend. I'm glad, I think a beavertail is a sin before God.

Scott,

We shoot them down south on the fish farms under a depredation permit. During the middle of the day when they're roosted drying their wings my friend drives around and works on them with his .17 varmit rifle. One pop with that and they look like a tar shingle falling off a high roof.

Good sport is trying to hit one swimming with an open sighted .22. You likely won't get a shot at less than 75 yards or so, and only their head and neck is above the surface once you pop one off in his direction........... and it's constantly moving.

Several years ago My neighbors were doing a great deal of shooting early in the morning for several days. I finally went over there to discover they were shooting cormorants over there newly stocked pond. 54 of the critters won't get any fish. By the way cormorants are protected around here. But, you don't mess with some peoples stocked ponds.

I also agree with Destry on his opinions of beavertails on a SxS
