I have eaten just about everything you can hunt from rabbit to elk but I have never hunted squirrel. I was hoping someone here could enlighten me as to the best method to go about this and keeping the meat edible at the same time.
My first thought was my .22 with FMJ rounds (what I usually use for rabbit) but I also have a .17 HMR that I thought might be a better option because of the better ballistics. My only worry was the bullet fragmenting and ruining any edible portions of the animal. Also where do you want to set your crosshairs on the little varmants?
