[QUOTE="screech, post: 134982, member: 5135"] I have to admit, That shot would be luck. Could it have happened? Almost anything is possible. Hell, I have seen varios creatures killed with the old 22lr at ranges exceeding 2 and 300 yards. Was it skill. No. Not when the target was the size of a pop can. I have heard of birds being shot out of the air while they were on the fly with a 22-250 with a 3-9x scope. I didn't get to witness it but it is from a reliable resource. When I was younger I had a friend get a crow out of a tree with a daisy "red ryder" type bb gun at 50-60yrds. So In my opinion it can be done. If i was shooting and saw a badger at that range would I shoot at it? maybe, depends on how many bullets I had. If I hit it would it be luck or skill. Luck 110%. So yes it could have happened. Did it? only the shooter knows. [/QUOTE]
