If you can get proficient enough to pass the Raven test you are there. I aim between the eye and the ear, but a straight on shot up the nose will also do. I don't want to see them suffer, but I don't ever want to see them again. My friendly neighborhood fox does the cleanup work for me.?
Thanks for the tips Mike. I'm sighted in dead on at 50'. Most shots are a little closer, some a little further away so I adjust accordingly. I'm right there with you, in that I want a quick kill. With the distance I'm at and the pellet gun/pellets I'm using, I'm not too worried about that though. Damn pellets will go in one side and out the other.
