Hit a fox at 200 yards with a .22 LR with iron sights? Holy smokes! Can you make shots like that regularly?
Thanks............hate the bragging that goes on sometimes so was just trying to advise on that little rifle.............That shot was probably like a hole in one for sure..........I do use that rifle and my old Marlin .22 on pretty much every tree rat that I come across. Especially around the house.
I truly hate it when they get in the attic and then wake you up at 2AM with sounds that take you back to where you don't like to go.......Things in the wire or in the brush crawling towards you......... A 30 to 60 yd shot is pretty common I guess.
My little girl border collie is the best squirrel dog going. She will sit under a tree and then rotate around the tree with the rat. Funny to watch as they go from tree to tree.........She gets real mopey when I ignore the situation and don't get the rifle to help her out..........
Anyway, for me, iron sights are just fine for most of what I do. Gives everything an even chance..........lol.......especially the older I get and the blinder........God bless.....Dennis
