With as much fun as we've all related from past rat-sniping experiences...I'm going down to the County Landfill (small, rural Kentucky County) and ask if they'd mind me picking-off a few of the unwelcomed varmint rodents. My scoped Volquartsen Superlite should be just the ticket. It's fun, it's beneficial, it's great practice, and it's one of the few critters I can shoot without feeling obligated to EAT. Standard velocity HP (Federal) will be my ammo of choice. Oh! If I get continued permission it might be JUST the excuse I've been looking for to buy a .17 M2 of some sort. That flat-shooting little fireball should be a PERFECT rat caliber.
