Was shooting off the back deck today at some Sight-N-C crow targets I have spread out. The gun was on the mark at 35 yards when i saw a little bird in the branches. Took a shot at it and hit it dead center in the chest. Feathers were flying and he dropped like a rock. Out of nowhere one of the local hawks comes swooping in and snatches the body out of mid air. Lands on my fence and proceeds to chow down on his free meal. Just thought I'd share such a cool experience.

Nice. What were you shooting?

Someone told me there was a hawk problem (not enough) around my way.

Where did all the damn rabbits go then? Not many field mice lately, either.

I was shooting with a tin of Crosman Destroyer. Still waiting for my order to come in from pyramidair. I have some Beeman crow magnum and Gamo red fire on order. A couple others also but I forget off the top of my head.

I meant which rifle...

How is the accuracy on the destroyers?

Oh, Vantage 1200. Im guessing I could say Quest or Phantom among others and still be in the same ballpark with model type. I cant really complain about the accuracy. I have targets set up starting at 20 yards going out to 50 yards. Have shoot-N-C crows on some drilled out bamboo stakes. At 100 yards I have a 14" pizza tray and I can hit everything fine. Once I upgrade the scope Ill be able to get the pie tray more accurately but until then Im not complaining
