Is a shotgun or rifle better for hunting squirrels?

i don't know any squirrels who hunt. sorry.Is a shotgun or rifle better for hunting squirrels?
Bird shot might do it with a .410 shotgun. But if you're gonna hunt squirrels grab a .22 man.Is a shotgun or rifle better for hunting squirrels?
shotgun man it makes them explode. Hollow points does a squirrel body BAD lol
Noooooooooo it is wrong to kill animals for your own sicko pleasures. You should stop and think about why you want to do such despicable things.
either but make sure u point them to your head and fire before the hunt, enjoy...
Well, a varmint is a varmint...and the only good varmint is a dead one. :-)





I would prefer using a .22 rifle. Although you may hit more squirrels with a shotgun, there is little sport in it and it doesn't improve your target shooting. A rifle requires a bit more skill and practice to hit squirrels.
A shotgun, because it fires shot rather than bullets. A squirrel is a very small, fast animal, hitting it with a rifle bullet would be very difficult (although, you could hit the squirrel from further away, which may be an advantage). However a shotgun fires a spreading shot, meaning you have to be far less accurate.
Depends on how good a shot you are. A squirrel is a small target. This is why shotguns are used, the spread of the pellets makes it more likely you will hit the target, at least with something.
If you are in a state where there is an official squirrel hunt, check the regulations. Some states have requirements as to what type of gun you can and can't use.
None of the above. We feed them nuts and watch them ride on tiny surfboards. They are cute and no meat on them to eat anyway. Why would you want to kill them?
A shotty will pepper it full of holes, so if you want to do something with the hide, use a rifle.
neither
Please dont kill Squirrels.. I like them very much..
Shotgun.
For food I would use a rifle. High powered pellet rifles for pest control in that they are less expensive(however I think if it is for pest control than you should trap and reslease them)
shotgun man!!
