[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2598744, member: 109862"] One time I legit shot a barn swallow out of the the sky with a C02 powered BB pistol. Of course there were about 5000 misses over the course of my youth trying to do this very thing but that’s not so fun to talk about 😁. This business of “it could work” vs “it’s right for the job” is an eternal exercise in banging one’s head into a wall! I’ve already talked about it on this thread…had a great great uncle back in the 30s who was a capable shooter in desperate times and it was common knowledge to a number of people that he took a number of elk and moose with his .22 hornet because it was his only gun and his family was hungry. Headshots only. This hardly means a .22 hornet is an appropriate moose gun just cuz a guy killed a moose with one!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
