I just finished an afternoon grasshopper hunt with Pondercat. While he being a purist used pure lead I -being the heretic that I am used solid steel.. We roamed all over my property here in Flag kicking up grasshoppers and then shooting them with our spring or air powered pistols. Pondercat proved to out shoot me. He ruthlessly employed the advantage of his single shot pellet pistol with rifling. While I used an CO2 powered copy of Smith and kWesson M&P BB gun. I think that Terry's greatest advantage lay in the single action nature of his superior trigger while mine is DA only. Ranges were from 14” (est) to about 4yds. No. of hoppers taken unknown approx. 20 to 30. We didn't decimate the population but any dead grasshopper is a much better one.
