I used to have a brother in law that was from Kentucky. He loved hunting squirrel. We have a ton of them here in our neighborhood. I don`t think I could eat a squirrel. He hunted and ate everything, lol eeewwwww.
I know it's 2yrs later but I like either a 22LR or 22Mag. My bought me a .54 cal Blackpowder TC percussion rifle for our Anniv. Like shootin it I bought a .32cal TC percussion rifle. I hardly ever use my other guns anymore for Big and Small game any more.
Twenty two for me. Chicken fry that little sucker and make gravy to go with it. I have an uncle who likes squirrel brains and scrambled eggs for breakfast. I'm old fashioned but not that old fashioned.
I really do not squirrel hunt but I am tempted on some days. They terrorize my dog in the back yard and highly upset our outside cats. I am amazed the bravery our neighborhood squirrels actually show, serious spunk.
