[AT] O.T.--shootin' skunks (357 vrs 38)

[Greg Whittaker]

Mini-14 Ranch in .223 Rem with FMJs for coons.  Soft points make too much 
mess.  Usually kill 3 or 4 a year that are tearing up bird feeders.  Let the 
dogs out to tree em,  my Dewalt flashlight fits good in may hand along with 
the forearm and the rest is just finding them in the scope
.
