EdgunUSA has vids on exiting pellets and ricochets that would probably prevented you from taking the shot with the cardinal so close and behind like that. You could have killed it too.

@fx451Jockey Yea, you're right, but the cardinal and the sparrow were almost side by side. The pellet would have to turn almost 90 degrees upon impact. The other thing is I've shot enough of those things to know what will happen as far as pellet travel. The pellets just blow right through them. Nice pick-up though.

hey, how does that scope work for you, and how much does it cost

[mrFyrguy5]

@holow Scope works great for me and I think I paid like $75 for it @ Walmart.com

[CBgamo]

what do you do with the animals you kill?

and how did you get your gun sighted in so good every time i do it gets way off i mean WAY off

[mrFyrguy5]

@CBgamo I skin them and give the meat to a trapper friend of mine. As far as the scope, it's a combo of a decent scope and a fairly no recoil gun.

How many squirrels do you have in your yard and how do you attract them...

[CrackSnuif]

can you make a clip about your shooting position cous you are SO stable!

[fx451Jockey]

@mrFyrguy5 Fair play, it didn't look that way to me. Kinda funny though, you shoot on sight, I feed them as they're on the decline here in the UK. All the best.

what gun are u using?

[MrBittleBites]

u fucked those birds up for the cardinal :D

[lasarousi]

i consider four shots: bad one (you failed to kill it before you walked to it), good one (was dead by the 3 seconds you walked to em shot was in torso, lungs and heart), excellent (they were dead before landing shot in the head), perfect (dead instantly, shot in the base of the head where the spine starts). you are 90% excellent shooter.
