Shotgun doesnt seem to be doin the trick this time. What you guys think .223 hollow or .308 from a WWII gun.

These damn things are hard to kill and are kinda getting expensive now since they empty my moms bird feeders like every night.

first of i’m from south jersey, so i grew up in a big time contry area…i know all about country: gardening, huntin, fishin, etc…second I don’t live in the city since i moved about 2 months ago…live in the east suburbs now.

I’m just not big on bird feeders…don’t really like birds too much, & espically don’t like bird shit all over the house, cars, deck, etc…

but we got a dog, so she keep all the wild shit(birds, wild turkey, squirrels etc…) out of the yard

you got a dog?? if not borrow a friends…if the dog is aggressive enough that will get rid of the racoon…just be careful…cause i’ve seen some dogs get fucked up buy racoons & opossum.  
needa a bigger aggressive alpha type dog like rotty, mastif, pittbull, boxer… or a hunting type dog…lab, chesapeake retriever, etc…  
our lab mix dog is crazy very alpha…when we go to NJ to visit my family she loves it it…my mom has a 5 acre lot…with only about 1 acre cleared, so there are a lot of wildlife in the woods…she hunts everything…even chases after the deer at night. :nuts:

If you want to keep the hides to sell just use a 22lr or 22 mag. If you just want them dead and out of the yard I would stick with the shotgun and switch to a #1 or #0 buckshot, that should teach them a lesson.
