    Another vote for PCP. I run two FX impacts, one for pellets and one for slugs. I knock down rodents at 50+ yards with either setup on a regular basis. The 25gr slugs I swage slap them a bit harder...

    NOE made a .225 45gr wide flat nose gas checked bullet mold years ago now. That is my favorite bullet when loaded around 22LR velocity for squirrels. Absolutely anchors critters.
