Testing the Skenco"Ultra Shock" .22

[Nomadic Pirate]

good shot bro i heard you have to boil them roosters down a bit meats tough is that correct

I give all my game the 48 hours soaking in iced water and vinegar treatment, does wonders to any meat from an old big boar down to a dove

Super job on shots and pix,how do you like that ND3,how about a review on it sometime.

Actually I just did, it's just further down the page, I posted a link since there was an interesting discussion with a fella,...guess I have to actually rewright it one of this days

So, the Skencos aren't the best pellets for target, but they have performed exceptionally well in the field, never missed a shot, and the game just piles up on the spot, I'm allmost out of them but I will for sure order several more tins the next time I put an order thru Pyramyd,..this is a killer pellet






I've being rutinely taking down Mynah birds up to 50 yards, and it's just devastating on them little birds

Nice job wasting those invasive mongoose.
They are incredibly destructive to the fragile native species over in HI.
Good job!

I found this link on the pellets.

Manny, you sure find lots of game to hunt. I used to go to a friends farm in Waimanalo to shoot mongoose, bulbuls and mynah birds but he lost the lease on his land so now I'm anxious to find new hunting grounds. I suppose I have to drive up to the North Shore to find secluded areas. Got any ideas?

[Nomadic Pirate]

East side and West side probably much better, the North Shore is horrible, unless you know someone or have keys/combinations, there's really nowhere to go, everything is blocked, pretty sad up here if you like to just get into the woods 

[Perry]

I used to have access to the gates when I worked at the fire station at Schofield. Our brush trucks had keys and combinations in them. I should have made copies before I got transfered to a different fire station:)

I may just venture out into the woods and bait some mongoose.

[Nomadic Pirate]

Use fish skins  ...top bait 

[Perry]

Got a freezer full of salmon from my trip to Alaska. I'll save some of the skins for bait. Thanks for the tip.

..And tie them up to a tree, otherwise them buggers will take them away before you can shoot 

Put them up, than come back in a couple of days and tie up some more and sit on them, it takes them a couple of days to get confident to come in and grind

the same thing can be said about Guam.
