Besides Starlings, I had no reason to kill any birds until I watched a Scrub Jay take out a little bird at the feeder with one peck. That jay didn't make it off of the feeder and any jay that shows up around here is likely to have the same fate. Stellar Jays are beautiful, but if they think they are safe, they come in abundance.Well, (to address the original question)
:
Today I opened my slider real slow and quiet-like and nailed a Stellar's Jay off my feeder, using my Benjamin 342 that I have owned for 49 years and has killed more critters than all my other guns put together.
Meisterkuglens Rule.
So there.
I guess my break barrel Crosman 795 isn't as inaccurate as I claimed, but most of the time I am using a pump Crosman 1377 pistol for the same job.
Jay tip, wound one and watch him fly off screeching his brains out. No more jays at the feeder for a long time. But, drop one and they still come.
