Hens were having a panic attack, Went out in the rain to see a half white/ half grey Weasel run in the chicken door, closed that door quick & went in after him, Can they move after the first miss of .22 rat shot, He covered every inch of that coop till he stopped for a second. Happy hens now John's Nuisance Wildlife Control If you like what you do for a living, It's better than a vacation. Most days.

I'm not surprised that the 22 was inferior to the other cartridges in this video. Some of the 22 shot didn't even make it through the paper target. A 38 loaded with #9 shot will make short work of field rats kicked up by the mower. No need to get out of the seat.
