I can remember my dad being mad the sparrows had built nest all around the 2-story old farmhouse we had - he got a box of Winchester bird shot and almost dark he got our neighbor to hold a flashlight on the nest and he went around the house shooting birds out of the nest with the old single shot Remington 22 we had.

I have these little NAA revolvers (one LR & one WMR) that are handy to carry when doing yard work. I keep them loaded with 2 rounds of shot shells and 3 HPs. Good for copperheads or any other pest I may encounter and they’re small enough they don’t snag on things like tree branches.

I used bunches and bunches of the crimped shotshells in the smoothbore Remington garden gun...folk shooting encapsulated shot in rifled barrels just have no idea how effective a shotshell can really be from an actual shotgun, them as folk using birdshot in their rifled slug guns and calling shotloads a waste except at near contact distance. I assume the video pointed out the crimped loads for smoothbore only.
