Gamo working tree line PICS (new member)

[DamaleR]

  Well a couple of weeks ago I made 3 baiting stations and placed them in my yard.Hoping for black Birds,starlings,and the occasional grackle i end up seing at least 10 squirrels at the placed feeders throughout the day.So I take the liberty upon myself to vanquishing the pest so i got ready and the next morning i wake up get my gear nd head out to the killing fields..Upon steping on my porch to get a rock steady shot with the trusty gamo,the squirrels catch a glimpse of me and they flee.While on their escape with their belly fulls one squirrel stops and looks back at me 53 yards away so I put the croshairs on the target and let the Premier hollowpoint fly And 1 second later i hear a loud ''THUMP'',The squirrel balls up and fall.With my retreaver on guard he RUNS and get the squirrel and comes back but does not want to give it back.

It's  hard to explain how to do it here because if you type the code it's translated to the  image.  Suffice to say for Flicker, which uses Flash displays, you need to go to "share" and grab the "BBCode" but only the bit that includes the URL ending in ".jpg"  Paste that URL in your message, then highlight the URL and click on the little picture icon/button.  That places the IMG code on either side of your URL and makes the image appear.

This is what my previous message looks like in text form before posting.

Great shooting!!  Your cat and the squirrel look like they 're buddies playing

Welcome to the GTA!  If you are not too technical or don't want to bother with manually copying/pasting and removing characters, you have to options.  1 is to upload the pics from your hard drive.  This is under "Additional Options" in the lower left hand corner under your message (before you post it).  Option #2 is upload your pics to Photobucket.  Photobucket has the Image link there already on the side of your picture, and all you have to do is click on it once (left/normal button) and it copies it automatically (into memory).  Then you come here and right click your mouse, select paste, and you 're done.  No need to insert anything else or click on other icons on GTA.

Now since you know how to upload pics to Flickr or other web sites, the 1st option might work best for you (Photobucket is very easy too).  After you click on Additonal Options below the GTA message you have just composed, you then click on "browse" next to ATTACH:  This allows you to browse your Hard Drive and find the picture you want to upload to your post.  After you have found the file and uploaded it, you can click on "more attachments" to upload more files/pics from your hard drive.  These pics will appear small after you post your message, but the readers can click on them to "blow them up".  Give it a try.  Good luck!

DamaleR hows your accuracy? are you always on the mark when hunting squirrels,  Im lucky to take one out at 25 yards,and im also lucky to hit one first time.I use Gamos red fire to hunt with. Very impressive 53 yard take down.

im not always on the mark but i know my gun and i kill most of them at ranges like 15-54 yards and hopefully farther when i get new leapers 3-9x50.for long range i use pointed crossman pellets they work really well and when shooting at that distance i have to compensate for the drop;which isnt that much i aim like 2 inches high at about 50 yards and it hits.im gonna start recording my data so i can get better info on how to compensate for the drop and where the poi is going to be.
