Never hunted bushytails with hounds but sure looks like a blast!! My Dad & I for a number of years were really into hunting squirrel with our scoped 22's. I still have my ole Rem 581 which I bought new during my HS school years. So many fond memories.

I was surprised when we started with the dog how often those squirrels will take off on the ground and make a big run to get to a den. Sometimes they will even come down and bail out of the tree when the hunters get close. Definitely adds some excitement to the hunt.

I believe his is a Rem 11-87 20 gauge. It is a youth model that I bought him when he started hunting. The one's today were way up the tree. He hit them on the first shot, but I think with the distance it simply wasn't enough to knock them out dead. We should have had the .22

Using a 22 would really be a challenge in all that action with the dog chase!! Prolly a shotgun is the best ticket.imo
