RE: best squirrel guns
i use full choke 12 gauge with #6 shot. i dont understand what they are talking about. i can always get all the shot out of the squirrels pretty easy. I also use a .17 hmr but i wouldnt recomend it for squirrel because if you dont make a good head shot it is catastrophic on the meat. Id try a .17 mach 2. i dont think it would do a lot of harm to the meat

RE: best squirrel guns
I killed over 50 one year using primarily a 410 with #6 shot. The last two years, I have used a 17. It makes a bigger hole than a .22 but I haven't had any that were really tore up, even when shooting fairly small greys.
