HOTDOG !!! I Got it!!
 
The load I used was 17 grains FFF under a patched round ball. It was about a 30 yard shot.Just about took off the side of the head you cant see in the picture.
 
Good shooting...head shot? Sure is fun isn't it. Oh, the Claymore bag works well for possibles and such. Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Hey Sarge, You are the only one that mentioned the Claymore Bandoleer. I'm retired Army and had access. I enjoy hunting those bushy tails and they make some good chow also.
 
OK I am going to attempt to post a picture or two of some squirrel kills. These were killed with my little 40 calibre North Carolina gunne made by Mike Miller of Paducah, KY. I use a .395 cast ball, 0.020 patch lubed with pure bear oil, 35 grs. FFFG Swiss with the same in the pan.

:thumbsup: Got the frypan all heated up. Two tree-rats is enough for me(go get a few for yourself :shocked2:), and when you leave, you can "accidentally" leave that somkepole leaning against my tent. Never had one that purdy. Vern
 
Tom who made your horn, really nice lines n coloration. There is something about those southern banded horns that really is pleasing to my eye. That n Mike sure make one purty gun, hope someday to be able to afford one. Great picture
