Look familiar?... Still at it all these years. The little buggers are undermining my barn and garage. On the + side, they do serve as excellent bullet testing media.

And what is the bullet of choice???

So inquiring minds what to know: assuming you need to get rid of a few of them, what do you do with the carcasses?

The "cleanup crew" (Turkey Vultures,Coyotes,Opossums,Raccoons,Fox,Crows,even woodpeckers)  make short work of the remains. My daughter who is the curator of a wildlife museum in the Adirondak Mts, and has her Falconry licence, also uses the meat that supposedly contains excellent nutrients for feather 
health for her birds.
Data:
357 Auto Mag, El Monte model 160 ,6.5" barrel,140g Hornady FTX bullets,WLP standard/mag primers,
22.5g of H110 in re-formed,trimmed, etc WW 308 cases for just shy of chrono'd 1800fps.

I like the load!  (Its very close to what I use)

The same with the clean-up crew, well all but for the Turkey Vultures (nasty creatures - yuck, if they weren't protected they would be good nuisance targets themselves)
