Anyone here into hunting with airguns? I’m planning a squirrel trip this coming weekend with one of my .30 airguns.

i don't hunt with airguns but i have been interested in the subject. i would love to hear how your hunt goes and the performance of your air gun.

i hope i get one this spring! mainly for two reasons.

first reason is the meat is really good (depends on what they have been eating but the one i got was really good)

and two, we have no shortage of them where i hunt and i also raise bees there so i don't like having a ton around, last time i talked to my friend/neighbor they said there are about 12-15 in a few mile radius.

It will be this airgun I’m taking out. I have a video review of it. I regularly kill deer with more powerful models.

We have an old model .25 walther air rifle……we have used it for squirrels in the woods
We use it more now for dispatching and “yard squirrel” hunting
Interested in acquiring a newer, more accurate, and user-friendly model at some point

My deer gun is a .308 Airforce Texan SS. It will shoot a 98 grain hollowpoint bullet for several shots at 920fps and will make clean double-lung shots out to at least 75 yards.

I have a .25 Condor that I have set up to shoot 38 grain hp bullets at 970fps. That’s my porch gun for dispatching predators.

I hardly ever use firearms anymore for hunting. I prefer airguns because they’re easy to suppress both legally and practically.

This past Saturday I went riding with some friends and I found my first shed whitetail antlers! After alll the hours I've been in the woods my whole life, I finally found a shed and it was a nice one! It was from last year and people have been by this spot a bunch of times. Later in the day, I found a buck skull w/o antlers and my friend found a nice whole skull w/ antlers in the same thick area.

Bedding areas are good places to find antler sheds South faceing slopes as well as feeding areas and routes to and from feeding.
