Tell us how you like your RWS and what caliber is it?????

A couple fellows were cited heavily in Central Texas for shooting fox squirrels in their backyard because their neighbor had a bird/squirrel feeder.

Fined forshooting squirrels with an illegal means, no hunting license, no Hunter Education certification, taking a game animal without landowner permission and knowingly allowing a projectile to cross a boundary line without having written permission from the landowner or owning the property on the other side of the boundary line.

Them Texas game wardens must have alot of time on their hands.............Might be past time to make some deep Budget cuts in that dept...............Who cares if somebody eats a squirrel............Unless you are an anti-hunter........Probably just some deep budget cuts would solve this squandering of tax payer dollars...We got to many Serious crime problems in this country to waste money on trivial squirrel eating..

I got the rws 54 in .22 cal. I liked it but I wanted more power so I sent it in to an airgun smith for a power tune with a custom spring and full barrel shroud. Waiting for it to come back then the real hunting will begin. In the mean time I am using a vintage sheridan silver streak which I resealed and mounted a scope on.

They were also shooting them out of their neighbors yard!! Rules and regulations should be adhered to regardless of the species or act. Nothing was mentioned about eating squirrels...read the post carefully.

For the price you pay for a rws seems like it would have came from the factory with plenty of power.

Any good place to find info on air rifles? I just want one for plinking and maybe shooting some chickens that keep scratching my mulch in my flower beds. Don't want to spend a lot of money as I don't do any hunting, just fish. WM has a few in the $100 to $150 range but I sure don't know what I'm looking at.
