Hi Guys,
Since I'm now semi retired I'm spending more time home and I finally decided that I'm going to rid my property ( 4 acres ) of woodchucks ( groundhogs -grundsows)
Over the past 29 years on this property I know on average I'm good for about 20 or so shot or trapped & exported each year! Tremendous amount of Property and garden damage! far too many so such a small plot!
Early on; Because we are in a small town but on the outskirts at the base of a mountain; I have shot them with .243 Win .223 Rem and even flintlock rifles and pistols! But now the area is getting more populated each year so I dropped down to .22 LR CCI Mini Mags then to CCI Segmented HP Subsonics ( 1070 FPS) and then to CCI Supressors ( 970 FPS) The last 2 have done well up to 35 yards. But now I need to work a bit closer and quieter out on my front lawn.
Do any of you guys know anything about the CCI Quiet-22's @ 710 FPS....Think they could take a woodchuck humanly at short distances (10 -15 yds) ?
Thanks
