Squirrels....., YUMMY little squirrels.

I have that exact same MKII. What type of ammo do you hunt with?

Are you guys eating these squirrels?

Gravy-licious photos fellas!

Wish we could handgun hunt up here, but I get em, and the grouse with the Custom Ruger 10/22 for some longer range fun, or the Marlin Youth if I'm out about on the quad.

More gun porn is always good.

Hey K, thats a John Lloyd Lanny's clip.
It's my all around hunting knife this year and I really think it's going to work well.

Redheaded this one with the Kimber Hunter 22.

Thanks. Nice looking knife. What steel is the blade made of?

johnny twoshoes · Nov 6, 2012

It's 52100 carbon steel.

So far so great.

You all are making me jealous. I have a plain Jane Ruger Mark 2 that I'm trying to decide whether or not to upgrade to a bull barrel/trigger job, or just sell it and buy a new one.

My advice...for what it's worth

Keep your stock MKII & save up for a heavy barrel .22LR handgun. Ruger's are nice but kinda pricey & same with the Browning Buckmarks (another awsome .22). A good deal on a .22handgun hvybbl is the S&W .22A, I had one & it shot great !

Nice! I love the Ruger MkII. Back in the day my brother and I each hit the woods on the farm with one in a holster and our rifles when we were deer hunting. If we found no deer we would always at least bring back a few squirrels and a rabbit or two for dinner.

Thanks! I enjoy your posts, and will be happy to take your advice!
