I've searched and I haven't seen much for this. Where the heck in central Maryland can I go squirrel hunting with a .22lr? It looks like the closest places from western Howard county I can go are Frederick city watershed and Cunningham falls. Everything else public lands on Montgomery, Carroll and Howard appear to be shotgun only.
I picked up a mossberg 702 and should have a 4x32 scope for it in the next couple of days. I was going to go deer hunting Saturday with my ML, but I may have broken my toe, or if not jammed it really bad last night. I can hobble a few hundred yards, but dragging a deer or hiking a couple of miles is out. Maybe if it was only a bad jam/bruising it'll be better by Saturday, but I am not holiday my breath (I hope it is by next Saturday!!!)
I could take my new 12ga out that I also just got, but I'd really like to try the .22lr. I got the .22lr for squirrel, rabbit and plinking. I got the 12ga for goose, turkey and trap. Also no #6 or 7. All I've got is #7.5 trap shells (yeah I could get some #6, but I am cheap and lazy). I was kind of hoping Saturday morning I could drive up to happ-baker, dial in the rifle/sight and then go somewhere semi-nearby for some squirrel hunting.
