If by vermin you mean rabbits and squirrels, you should use a .22.What's better for .22lr ammo?: CCI Blazer or Remington Value Pack?

a double barrel i can remember my brother shooting a rat in our garden once what a mess but it worked!!Them's a-fightin' words, mister...Genral Vermin is a friend of mine and a true hero of the South.
The one that got away, do you still search it out?
I would go with a .22. As another has pointed out a shotgun is a lot messier..22 will stop anything up to rabbit size.
Could someone walk me through how buying a rifle works?
like most of the others say, .22. A .22 long rifle will work out to about 50 yards, same as a pistol or shotgun. Its extreme range is about a mile and a quarter. All of the high velocity rounds like ,225, .22Hornet or whatever will carry for about 5 miles. that is a much more dangerous situation if they miss or ricochet. If you are on wide open prairie though the higher velocity cartridges become more appealing with a good scope but you still need to be very cautious because of the extreme range. You really don't want to be shooting things that you can't even see.With a 22 you need to get a bit closer, think of it as part of the skill.
Can I have hunters on my Posted property?
i use my Sten MK2 sub machine gun it'll make them danceDoes anybody know where to get plastic non lethal bullets..?
Depends on the vermin. I am a big fan of the .17 HMR. It doesn't bounce around like a .22 LR and seems to be effective out past 200 yards on smaller vermin. If I was out west or shooting 100+ yards on vermin a good .223 would be my choice. For longer ranges I would opt for a .22-250 or a .204 Ruger. Around the house we have vermin (opposum and raccoons) that tear up our trash and eat the cats food. For that I use a .410 shotgun, but would use a 20 ga. or 12 ga. and be just as happy. I use #4 or #6 shot for such problems.Wheres a good spot to catch salomon this time of year in michigan?

Could anyone tell me the name and possibly address of a good priced fishing shop in coventry.?
depending on what you are going to be hunting. there are several good calibers out there that will work. naming smallest to biggest, .22, .17, .223, 22-250, .243. a .22 or .17 will work great on squirls, skunks, rabbits, and groundhogs. the .223 and 22-250 will also do the trick, and work well on larger animals like cyotes and bobcats. from my experiences the larger the caliber the easier it is to be accurate at greater distances. the .243 is the largest of those i mentioned and is more for the larger animals at greater distances. i would recomend the .223.More Questions & Answers...
