[QUOTE="204_ruger, post: 2006980, member: 114199"] I hunt squirrels 3 or 4 times a week or more. The first 3 hrs of the morning. In fall squirrel will move all day. Also last 3 hrs of the day. Find the cutting hickory or acorns find the squirrels. I hunt 99% acorn flats with hickory mixed in. If u can find a pecan tree. U have a honey hole. Squirrels will come over a mile too it. I have set in one place around pecan tress's and limit out. We have fox squirrels and grey squirrels. Fox squirrels will answer a call better than a grey. But at times both will come to a call. Fox will move slow moving around. Grey squirrels are like lightning moving around. I walk distance stop set 25 minutes. Then move on doing same thing over and over. Primos squirrel buster is the best call I have used. Also carry a haydel squirrel whistle ( young squirrel in distress. ) . If I try to use a 22 I would never kill a squirrel as fast as greys are. Where I grew up we had fox squirrels. I live in the ozarks mountains now mostly grey squirrels. I use a mossberg mossy oak 500 410 TSS Turkey gun. I bought it just for squirrel hunting. I uses 3 inch 11/16 oz 4 or 6 shot. I just got my mec 410 reloader in. Now have to wait on my nickel platted 5 1/2 and 6 size shot. To load up for squirrel hunting. [/QUOTE]
