Do I see a surpressor on the one gun? I have shot a couple off of our pond. Although a 12 ga is a bit easier at just after sundown. I did work one over one night with S&W 15-22. That was fun.

The one shot I will always remember is when I picked off a beaver with my 336 30-30 with iron sights from about 90-100 yards. That beaver moved onto the ranch and it was starting to flood our best hay field.
I was coming out of the mountains tired and bedraggled from a day of chasing elk. I saw that V going through the water. I just lifted my 336 where I stood. I steadied the front bead right in front of the V and touched it off. All I saw was a beaver roll over and started floating up-side down. The bullet hit right behind the ear. I was in disbelief at that shot.

Tell me more. Where is there a firearms beaver season? First I've heard of it.

Are beaver considered varmints in your area, or is it for the pelt? Is it a Spring season activity? What is the bag limit?

Wow,was I on the wrong track. Over here the beavers look a bit different!

Dansken, that's some pretty country! Do you only shoot beaver in Sweden or do you trap them as well? Are they considered nuisance animal's, fur bearer's or both?
