Saturday Squirrel Zapping with New Scope

[Filnez]

Got this one around midday today.  Spotted a tail flickering around from behind an oak tree about thirty yards out, so I sat down and waited for the varmint to show itself.  It kept moving around, and I was having a hard time spotting it through all the limbs and brush.  I never could get a decent head shot to present, so I finally took a center body shot high in the lungs and the Eun Jin pellet raked the lungs and spine, dropping the squirrel instantly.  It wasn't a very large specimen at all, but squirrels is squirrels I guess.  Any day you get to take one is a fine day!   

REALLY liking this new Burris Timberline 4.5-14x scope.  The fixed 4 Nikon I had on it was OK but my eyes are getting older and targets past 25 yards are needing magnified more. I wanted something with more magnification, but not too bulky and heavy, as I really don't like big ol' clunky scopes on my guns, so the Burris seemed perfect.  Excellent quality, sharp optically, not too big, and looks great on the Evanix.
