A few other points. Some of the best Beagles I ever had were $25 farm beagles. I have had litter-mates (from the same sire & dam) where one was outstanding while the other wasn't worth a darned. A Beagle that is hungry will hunt a lot harder than one with a full belly. I always fed my Beagles in the evening so they would be hungry ion the mornings. A Beagle that is left to run free will hunt for him/herself., not to mention all the mischief it will get into like running deer.

My responses in RED below. Beagles are best when run in packs of 2 or more. Each dogs has its weak & strong points. Having more than one on the trail increases the odds exponentially.

I bought my son an RWS M48 Diana side lever .22 pellet rifle for his 12th birthday. It will shoot heavy round nose Kodiak pellets through 1" rough sawn pine with enough snot left over to make a pretty good thud on what is beyond. As 60 yds those same pellets will completely penetrate a 1 gallon milk jug filled with water. I ended up using medium weight Crossman Premier pellets. In my barn's hay loft it will penetrate a pigeon's breast & make a pretty good whack when it hits the wooden roof deck.

A couple of interesting wildlife items

About the mating habits of squirrels. I knew the Eastern Gray Squirrels mated in January, perhaps the Reds have similar habits. http://newsforsquirrels.blogspot.com/2012/02/squirrel-facts-mating-and-birth.html -

Maybe that was the plan all along! -
Selective but not recoil operated. "Mechanical selective". Only drawback with that was the fact that once the safety was off, the selected barrel could not be changed W/O putting the safety in the "on" position. The plus side was that, unlike recoil operated selective triggers, if a dud failed to go off, the other barrel was ready. The DeHanns were the mechanical twin to the Cz doubles being marketed today albeit at a higher level of finish with many custom options not available W/the Cz offerings. Dehann shotguns were imported way before Cz slid in & took the market away from them. Both were made by HUGLU in Turkey, perhaps the finest arms making COOP in Turkey. I'm not in the habit of naming guns, but I called that sweet little number Caterine Zeta Jones.

I had a DeHann S-2 in 28ga. 5# 4oz W/28" barrels. Winchester Super-X 28 ga loads push 1 oz of shot at 1205 fps. That's only 15 fps off the high brass 20 ga loads. The 28 ga Suoer-X with #6s were deadly on late season Ringnecks. The gun felt like carrying a broom stick & with the 28" barrels it balanced & swung superbly. I broke 23/25 at skeet the very 1st round I shot with it.

I think someone has already squeezed her head in a VISE! She doesn't need another one. -
