Re: what could this be?
probably
but the squibble that lives in a drey of that kinda size would quite possibly spit .177's back at you

Re: what could this be?
Give it a blast with the 12g Do not use the .222 or a .22!!! Its probably too high and who knows where the bullet might end up
Even better, keep an eye on it for a while and see what happens.
