    Skunks

    OK in theory/opinion would you shoot a skunk at close range (10-30 feet) with an airgun putting out 13-14 ftlbs? Now i'm talking clean head shots using a high quality polymer tipped pellet. These pellets pass clean through 3/4 plywood at this range.

    Not if it was anywhere near anything that I don't want to get stinky.

    Out in the bush with an escape route, yes.
    Yup, that coiler is a personal best...

    I wouldn't do it with my 25 year old daisy but, with whatever highpowered pellet gun you have, yeah, I'd do it. (Maybe standing back a bit further though...)

    I have done it several times.It kills the Skunk but it always seems to spray before it dies.
