I live where I am lucky enough to be able to use a Marlin Md.#60 semi auto .22 cal with federal 36 grain hollow point ammo. I have lost count how many I have dispatched to tree Rat heaven.

Squirrel Stew

Ingredients:
1 squirrel, quartered
1 cup diced onion
2 large tomatoes (from your garden) or 1 can of tomatoes
assorted fresh or canned veggies

Preparation:
Sprinkle seasoned salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper (optional) liberally on the meat.

Pour some cooking oil into a large pot (Dutch oven).

Sauté the meat with the onions until well browned.

Drain the excess oil, add about 2 cups water, and bring to a boil.

Cut up tomatoes and add. If you use canned tomatoes add them now.

Turn down the heat, and let slow cook for at least an hour. (Older squirrels may require cooking longer than an hour. Check periodically for tenderness)

After the meat is tender, add the veggies, carrots, potatoes, banana pepper.
Cook until the veggies are done.

I'm having more fun with my Crossman 66 Powermaster. I get them up close and one shot and they freeze in time! :hysterical:
