Rockchuck fall to the Titan

Was down on the river this week and noticed a cattle gaurd with something sticking up between the rails. So I got out my binos and sure enough it was a rockchuck well all I had was my Titan. I was able to sneak to within 37 yards but from that point it was like a putting green of a well maintain golfcourse. I put the crosshair just above the eye of the chuck and slowly applied some pressure to the trigger. At the brake of the trigger the chucks head disappeared from sight. I heard the smack of the pellet hitting, so I thought I'd wait a few minutes to see if he or one of his relatives would re-appear, after about 8 minutes of nothing I walked up to the cattle gaurd. There he was all hunched in a ball. I took a stick a poked him in the back nothing, no movement at all. So I reached down between the rails and pulled him out. The pellet had struck him right in the left eye it did not exit the other side but the chuck was dead never even knew what hit him. Can you say impressed! This old chuck weighed about 8 pounds and had seen a few fights judging from the scars on his head and neck. I am simply amazed at what this air rifle will do. Is it a 22lr nope but comes close to a 22 short.
