LOL kingfisher, I called the game department about those squirrels and they said as long as it's done humanly it's alright. I will pretty much be hunting dear, coyote, and eventualy elk. One of my friends has a 25/06 with a good leuopold scope and has dropped deer from 400 yards away with it, he'll let it go for 300 bones. I think im going to go with that. And my dad has a friend who gives the hunters safety class for 20 bucks so I will be doing that before the summer gets here to be ready for deer season. Thanks for all the advice!
