This little vagrant took up residency under my horse barn.


So I fed him some apples and took him for a ride on the 875.

I have his cousin under my shed. The wife named him Ralph. I have been instructed to leave Ralph alone. I have considered give him a Prestone cocktail.

All such creatures are very susceptible to heavy metal poisoning. Usually delivered through the skin at 36-3800 fpm.

Varmint Cong comes to mind:-)

FREEZE GOPHER!

http://www.amazon.com/Benjamin-Varmint-Power-Rifle-0-22-Calibre/dp/B00IVKAGQ4 works great, night or day. I had no idea it was as powerful as it is until I decided to "sting" a raccoon digging in my trash cans. I had to hide the body the next AM.

When I released him, he was last seen headed South at max speed...around 0.3MPH.     If he doesn't stop or change course, He should be in Maryland in 3 days.

I hope that was a real long ride Ed or he will be back......Should have put him on a steady diet of lead....... course then his cousins would all move in. Chucks  can do some serious damage

This is what my brother calls "High speed lead poisoning!"

I had his entire extended family over here in Sandston earlier in the year. One by one they met their fate by 12 gauge or trap. Good luck with yours!

I have to dispatch mine quietly, can't shoot a real gun, other than hunting season, and even then, shotgun only.

Since I live in city limits I don't think I could get away with 12 gauge. Last year one was acting real strange so my wife's pellet rifle too care of him. My wife named the dang groundhog but hates squirrels. So she has a pump pellet /BB rifle for the rats with long tails.

Our neighbors have named theirs Gordon - I pronounce it "Gor-don"

CB loads or 22 short are about the same noise, trajectory and so on...just saying.

My situation prohibits me from using such "high speed lead poisoning" techniques but I like the style.  I'm limited to air propulsion and prefer the Crossman America Classic in 177 flavor since my Crossman 357 detonated - short range only...

There are no "Reds" nearby to keep out of the shed but there's a few "black & white Stripes" around - the gray tree rats are not a problem - no "racing stripes" aka Chippers either.  Not here, not yet.

If I were serious about some fruit - the raspberries would have netting etc. - I'd plant a pear, an apple and a different apple tree and plock a hammock down and just keep things in order using a 177 single stroke like I was 8 years old again...

22.250 Remington 700 bull barrel with a 12x mounted on top! Glasses and floated with a very light trigger pull. Coyote - Hog buster. I lose sleep wondering with my lower caliber weapons (if they happen to make it back to thier dens) if I have done my job. No guess work with the 250! Just way to many of the destructive varmints this year. Big sis is forever greatful especially after her husband shot thier shed.:laughing-rofl:

When Sheds become pests, they require much bigger armament!

Umm, Ed ... Is there any chance your critters are heading west instead of south?

He could make a right turn and end up in Spring Grove, But if he turns East toward Phoenixville, He will have to use the Norman Wood Bridge to get across the Susquehanna River.
So I doubt you will see him in your garden Tuna, but if you do, he likes to eat apples and ride tractors.
