>>997472I've used these. They're not accurate enough to be used reliably for squirrel, but powerful enough to take down much larger game like small deer with enough force.
>>997557 is a better choice but a .22 rifle would be best.
>>997557>How do you cook squirrelI like to wrap them in tinfoil with some butter and veggies and bake them in coals, but you can fire-roast them or make stew, or burgers or jerky if you really wanted, but the dryer they are, the gamier they taste.
>is this good time of year for squirrel?Not really. They're just coming out of hibernation and birthing, you'd be shooting the parents and leaving the kits (the fall hunt) to starve. It's probably illegal and generally not good practice.
