Seems like we have had a bumper crop of Starlings this spring. I have been doing my best to reduce the numbers using a Crosman storm. It has been very effective using both the Destroyer pellet and the Crosman pointed pellets. Longest shot so far has been just over 40 yards with a Destroyer to the breast of one of those little black pests. I've shot so many I have lost count it has been a great distraction from the boobtube. Looks like it is going to be a nice sunny day so I may go out and try it on some local ground squirrels. I'll let you know how it works on them later.
