I love it for dove season Ummm... I hope you know it's illegal to shoot doves with a rifle? From the IDNR web site:"No person shall take migratory game birds: With a trap, snare, net, rifle, pistol, swivel gun, shotgun larger than 10 gauge, punt gun, battery gun, machine gun, fishhook, poison, drug, explosive or stupefying substance."

Can't slip one past Decatur! I've got a Gamo that I like pretty well. It will more than do the job on squirrels.

I have killed a grey with a head shot at 10 feet. .177 cal, pointed hunting pellet. Not ideal with a cheap air rifle like mine by any means!

What's so dumb about it? I think it's a great rule! It's not very sporting to shoot doves off of an electric wire. I'm not saying you did that, but we've all seen them lined up on wires along country roads...

;d Well at least now you know not to do it! We've all accidently violated some type of game law at one time or another. In the eyes of the law, ignorance of the law is no excuse!

I use a beeman RS2 with winchester 3-9x40 scope on it. It's a .22 cal springer air rifle and i have shot one fox squirrel, numberous black birds, and one racoon with it.
I have went squirrel hunting twice this week with it but yet to see any squirrels at my normal spot. I think someone beat me there this season. All i got was turkey ticks...
