What caliber for mice?

Post by camjr »

Can you say overkill? Everyone was very lucky not to be killed or more seriously injured. As strange as this story is, I love the last line in the article.

Even after going through her knee I find it difficult to believe that a 44 mag bullet would "bounce off" of a key ring. Not to mention the whole going off when it hit the floor...

I call shenanigans on this one. I think they conjured up the mouse excuse to cover up what they were really doing. Which, if I had to guess, was fighting with eachother. :roll:

I'm sure this is why my wife makes me do the varmint killin'. I'm less prone to cause a newsworthy moment.

The Article wrote:The 43-year-old woman pulled out her .44-caliber Magnum revolver after she saw the mice scurrying across the floor of her trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, sheriff's officials said.
I think that's the key... :smilelol5:

As an answer for the title of this thread. . . a .44 cal mag should be fine. :lol:

+1 on the shenanigans.

I think we can reasonably suspect that whatever they were drinking, snorting, smoking, injecting or otherwise ingesting wasn't good for them - because they clearly weren't thinking.
