Fwiw I only inherited these dogs last Wednesday. Today while shooting paper I heard a couple of squawking squrls nearby so I walked off with my loaded HW50. I left all the pellets on the table and found myself further away from reloads than I'd like. I found this squrl eating a walnut in a tree and shot it with my one and only pellet. Then I introduced it to my new dogs to get them interested in hunting. Really good dogs even though the coyotes had them barking from 4:30am to daybreak
