No more destroying sprinkler lines for this guy.

[abqjoe]

So this guy started popping up in my yard about a month ago. Digging under my walkways, in my grass, and chewing on my sprinkler lines. He always seemed to disappear when I grabbed my gun though. But today that all changed. Today I looked outside and I saw him, then he saw me, then we played cat-n-mouse for about 30 mins around the yard. Because it's been cold and raining for the last few days he was more than eager to keep coming out to get some sunshine. He finally settled on a wall long enough for me to get a shot from standing at 25 yards. Got him just right in my cross hairs, squeezed the trigger, and let the 22gr FX Hybrid fly out of my brand new M3 Compact.
I have to say, I am very impressed and satisfied with the performance of those FX Hybrids in 22 cal. Hit with authority, no pass through, and lights out instantly! Perfect for back yard pesting

Nice job. Those are the funnest ones. The ones that you have to be patient for before finally squeezing the trigger.
I use the H&N Hunters in .22 which are devastating and really mushroom upon impact.

Great shooting there. I'm also impressed with the Hybrid Slug performance, and that's why I sold you most of my Hades!

I still shoot quite a bit of Hades but only at the birds that threaten my Bonsai trees. My compact is dual tuned.....power wheel on 16 shoots the Hybrids at 960fps and power wheel on 6 shoots the Hades at 960fps and so within 25 yards the POI between the two is the same.

Smacked him so hard on impact that the hit echoed through my courtyard.
