This thread has motivated me to take out my first gun, a Winchester 94/22 my Dad bought for me in 1983.
Although I haven't shot it in about 10 years, it used to get taken out in the woods all the time, and killed alot of squirrels!!
No squirrel season in WI until fall so I had to shoot paper. 25 yard performance proves my eyes prefer a scope these days.

Season doesn't open until the first Saturday of September here. We've got one getting in the sunroom for birdseed, might have to "open" the season early...
Sounds like the very definition of “nuisance” to me! Bust that squeaker! A little motivation for you from earlier this evening!
If only my Dead Air Mask HD would get out of jail...might have to employ the live trap again.
...there's squirrel gumbo, squirrel po' boys, squirrel fricassee, squirrel stew, squirrel sammich, squirrel kebab....
You really never know about any of those recipes unless you try each one 50 times on the same stove. They can seem perfect the first 20 or 30 times but you later find they are just wallet recipes.

It only took me what 10 months to reply? Here is the pic of the little Winchester 69A. I recently acquired a nice little Winchester 52 sporter and swiped the 4x Unertl scope to put it on that nice old rifle. They are similar is size but the 52 is a bit heavier. It is the last run of 52's the ones that were made by Miroku. They are not quite as tight in the action as the real 52's but the rest of the fit, finish and performance is just like what I would expect. Now am search for another vintage fixed power optic for the little 69
