F#ck the target calibres............Speaking from personal experience, go full tactical and give them a touch up with a 12 gauge
#4 shot did the job for us on the old mans property when they became problematic and needed an attitude adjustment
Once you've nailed a couple of their mates in flight over the property, the others catch on rather quickly and give the property a wide birth

Oi!

Crow + 6/6.5x47 Lapua + 85 grain Sierra hollow point = Black vapor...

Its Breading season now for them, same as the Magpie, around December its the Karrowong time to make babies and I will tell you all how we are, the family are effected with the three breeds of them, well about 50 of up too 100 of them (when I have time as its Vr Comm rubber boot rack day)
Yes The Family is Wile Carers as we care for injured birds, bady birds throw out of a nest or storm and we are well known by the RSPCA and Australian ZOO as they continually feed us with bird to care (Starting Now to April every year) and it cost us a ZILLION to do this with No government help for anything. We specialise with Magpies , Karrowongs, and Australian Minors (NOT THE INDIA ONES) and it not unusual to get over 100 in one breading season. We Dont Care for Crows Anymore because the Young will call the Older birds around and before we know it we will have 2 dozen Crows hanging around.
Emmy, We still have the Magpie today because she cannot be releases because one in a hundred become to humanized and she yes she is a he not a she by the Zoo that gave her a female name. He live in our larged cage outside but ever night he comes inside our house and plays inside and eventually goes to sleep in my workshop room.

Ha Ha.......I see your point
Wasn't intentionally bagging out "Target Calibres" as i put it
I grew up shooting .177 and .22 calibre rifles and pistols at indoor & outdoor ranges, all thanks to my grandparents being competitive shooters

Yeah, I should have worded my previous post a little differently
When you mentioned 6.5 x 47 Lapua, that's what my comment "wasn't intentionally bagging target calibres" was in reference to

Crows are a pain in the arse if you live in a NEW AREA if the area was a tip or a dump before before they done a sub division on on it. The Crows say We we uses to live here but know it has all those brick things and they wont move out until 5 years goes by. Truse we had this issue when we moved in on our area so garbage bins where open by them YES TWO CROWS WORKING IN TANDOM to life the lid and plenty of cars were damaged.

Haha that's all I own, after my mate who got me into firearms passed away I couldn't justify increasing my collection to anything larger as access to the properties I used to use went with him and I lost the passion for it a bit.

Spoke with Holden, the side trims are cheap at $17ea but apparently the windscreen cowl trim rubber and side rubber are not available separately, only with glass... side trim and glass is 155ish and trim and windscreen is 1150ish. The hunt continues.
