Piece of junk 22 revolver. I don't like a rifle cause its just something else to carry. I figure it this way why carry a gun when you could carry more traps

Ruger single six -4-5/8" barrel or Ruger bearcat. I also use a Remington model A pump...really like that old gun when I'm bobcat trapping. Thread the bullet into the eye and not a hole...also pick up a few rabbits along the way.

I use a Springfield M-6 Scout rifle, .22 & .410 combo. Very handy, all metal, no wood to scratch up or break, it has an ammo compartment in the buttstock, shells are always handy.

Is it bad that I use my catch pole...? A quick pull of the cable and the go to sleep. Gets a little wicked with raccoons, those little guys are tough.

Now that I think of it.... I did end up with a fox ALIVE in my garage last year. He slept all the way home, 30 mins or more, than ran like crazy....he didn't get to far.

I get a few skunks every year and I use the trowel on every one.

The skunk is a calm animal.You simply note wind direction,move slowly going in,move fast going out and collect them later.

What kind of, brand, revolver shoots .22 mags and LRs, Ls, & Ss.

A .22 mag requires a cylinder of its own fitted to its size.
A .22 mag will not fit a standard .22 cylinder.
A .22.mag. cylinder does not fit Long Rifles, Longs, or Shorts.
Wonderig,

CCI has a new hyper velocity .22 long rifle round shooting a 40 grain hollowpoint that will get your old .22 pretty close to magnum power but it still ain't a .22 magnum. It is becoming my favorite load for my Ruger. It is called the Velociter.:)

coonergreen: I understand that.

What I don't understand is something like recurve's post above that he has a revolver that will shoot .22 mags, Long Rifles, Longs, and Shorts. Sounds as if he is talking about a one cylinder revolver.

If its like my Ruger singal siw SS it has two cylinders then he will be able to shoot all of the .22's he mentioned.

Just got a H&R 622 revolver from my grandfather, it should do the job. Also it is old and rusty so I don't have to worry about wrecking it. Only thing is I am not sure if you have to use 22 shorts in it or if I can use 22 lr's? I will have to find out tomorrow or maybe this weekend.
