Has anyone hunted squirrel with there CJ

Post by RICHARDC1965 »

Would like to hear from people who have used their CJ to hunt with. Seems like it would be good to have a few chambers with #6 shot and a couple with the 45 for whether you see a squirrel, deer or hog. Also has anyone checked to see what the pattern is for a high brass #6 out at 25 yards. Thanks, Richard

I've done some squirrel hunting with mine. Does pretty good with #6 shot. I can't say how far it's effective, but I have shot some at approximately 25 yards with no problems. I want to try it with the .45 for deer this year as well.

I is a Rabbit Hunter as squirils out here are not tablefare, I have found that my CJ with reloaded#8 or factory#8 worked fantastic. These bunnies are about the size of house cat.
The thing I like over using my 12 ga is when chewing the meat, ya find way less BBs.
Don't ask me to do anything where where I can't take Bible and Gun, I would leave Dog home, but reluctantly.
