Cuz called. The Quail Ranch is having trouble with Crows.
Son was ready to go. So we loaded up the Storm XT .22 conversion - and a tin of CPHP's into the A100, and headed for the ranch.
An hour after arrival, we saw our first Crow land in one of the big pines - about 30ish yards out.
The small one (on left in pic) I hit in the wing/shoulder - helicoptered down "crowing" all the way.
Seconds later, here comes big daddy Crow kane - landed in the same spot! Cawin' up a storm!
Storm reloaded, handed off to son.....he was giddy, so was I....I said be steady son, remember your hold.
THWACK and DROP! The big one was dead on impact - major pump-house blow-out - dropped like a rock - and landed right on top of the small one I had hit. Great shot son!
Cuz & wife were smiling and offering lunch. A good day at the Quail Ranch.
Ya, the A100 got "tagged" with spray paint a few months back - no harm. I cleaned it up. lol

Great shooting. What barrel did you use for conversion? Is that a shroud on the end?

Bys1,
It's an OEM Crosman Quest 800 barrel/block - 1 part - called Crosman and ordered for about $16 +ship. Getting around 650fps w/cphp. The part number for the .22 is B19-3-01-100-5-5. It's bare, I just moved everything over to it.
lol - not a shroud, just a Schwinn rubber cycle grip. Probably visually hideous to most, but I find it much easier on the hand/fingers during "pelletathlons". Electrical tape underneath, nice and solid.

I don't know how to break this to you, but I think your wife may have had some indiscretions in the past. I am pretty sure your son is the spawn of Jack from Jack in the Box. There is quite a resemblance. LOL. (I don't post photo's of our faces on the net either!) Good shooting. It is always great to spend some quality time with the kids.There isn't anything better!

Great shooting with the .22 Storm. Nailed two of those pesky crows.
