My brother has an issue with a skunk. He wants to borrow one of my rifles to shoot it.
First question: Is that the best way to get rid of a skunk? I would assume you need a one-shot-kill, or the injured animal will spray.
Second question: Assuming you were going to shoot one -- and my brother says it lives near his house and he'd be 10-25 yards from it -- what would you use?
I have an odd assortment of rifles, I'm not a hunter. I have an AK, a PC4, a Mini-14, and a Mossy 12ga. I suggested the 12ga with a light load and the short barrel.
Any thoughts?
