How do you capture starlings? We must be talking shotguns, right?

I've never had to pick shot out of my mouth while eating anything, but I imagine it's as bad as having sand in your mussels.

Plus, I can't go shooting a shotgun anywhere around here. Well, maybe down by Mason Neck.

A .177 pellet rifle makes damn short work of them. A .22 pellet rifle makes for movie quality kills.

Of course mine both shoot 1200+ feet per second. 1600 for the .177. Both are significantly faster than a .22 rifle.

Just mind your background, pellets lose velocity fairly quickly, but, ricochets can happen, and they can skip off the ground and keep traveling a bit.

We didn't send the passenger pigeon into extinction with half measures. I suggest nets and rockets.
