I figured I'd just try to scare him with a close shot and that would be that. I domed the little rat! I couldn't believe it! I am still sitting here giggling that I pulled that shot off! I can't get the body back though because it fell on my neighbor's side of the fence and I don't want to get bit. I wanted a picture of that little turd to add to my collection. It was the first kill with my 2300. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

I'm kind of glad he did fall the direction he did. I don't want my dogs exposed to anything that might have rabies, and as screwy as he was it's possible I guess. The neighbor's dog shredded him as soon as he hit the ground. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

When are you gonna get your first kill with your pistol? I usually don't post kills because you never know who's reading this, but can't you let me slide this one time? _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

Only thing for me so far with mine was a rat...nice solid body shot.I never found him though as I flipped it back into deep ivy. I'm still waiting to put it to use again,with the carbine stock on it.So far so good with groups on paper.... _________________   Posted: Thu Jul 22, 2010 11:42 am oddtodd Silver Status Member Joined: 30 Dec 2008 Posts: 2029 Location: Richmond, IN USA Mark, the scope is great for accuracy, but it's a pain in the a$$ for acquisition. If that squirrel wasn't just standing there I never would have hit it. _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

They work pretty good indoors for me,but I tried mine outdoors,and had issues seeing the dot...even on setting 11.My buddy could see it fine,so my eyes must not be all that great... The red dot will come in handy for low light shooting though...sure wish my scope had an illuminated retical..... _________________ Got my first kill with my 2300 custom!!     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Hunting, Pest Control, Varminting You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
