what did you have for tea?

Home to beef curry and rice.
Weihrauch HW80 - not the karbine one. .22 cal
I usually go for the vitals, more room for error and squirrels also have pretty thick skulls. I'd much rather go for a clean shot with a decent gun than a risky one with a pants gun. Can follow up with a point blank headshot with a lesser powered handgun, which I always run out with just to make sure anything I shoot is dead asap.
If lil fluffy is facing me and showing its belly, then definitely going for the vitals. To get a heart shot on one is next to impossible as they move about far too much, plus Any wind deviation means you won't hit the heart. Worst case scenario, even for a good shot, is a hit in the vitals - about 2 inch radius. The heart is maybe half an inch big.

Nice, I recently go myself a HW97k, still trying to find somwhere decent to go shooting regularly.

When they first took out the HW80, they had to de-tune it to under 12ft/lbs as the standard ones were a bit too powerful.
What calibre is the 97? Where are you based?

When I used to shoot, I had my HW80 tested and it was slightly over the limit. Great piece of kit!

Happy birthday Marc!

I remember you saying you had one when you were younger. I love heavier pellets, so mine is most likely over the limit. Great thing with a Weihrauch is that they NEVER lose their power due to old age, only negligence.
