Was a few years ago taken out in the extreme Nor-cal Alfalfa fields. It is a BELDING ground squirrel ... FWIW
At the time i was shooting side by side or long shots / short shots having the JSAR Raptor in .22 cal shooting X pointed HP NSA 20.2's @ 1060 fps OR it was a shot with the .17 HMR ?
I do recall shot was very close being inside 20 yards, squirrel came out of burrow facing away from me, so was a hit in the back spine going out chest. When It happened I just recall telling myself to take a look at it once up and moving around again.
This is how it was found laying ... not a posed picture

. I love it, and I love mine! As well as the 17wsm, they give me hope that one day we'll see 50-60fpe .177 slug rifles with the proper twist rate! Last edited:

Thank you! Those are my favorite shots, especially on iguanas as they look like snakes in the water. Once hit they spin once or twice and sink to the bottomGreat shooting especially head shot on the one in the water....MOVING!
