Do you actually own one or both of these today? Do you even own a gun yet? "Game shot" stands out as a bit of a red flag that indicates you neither own firearms nor know much about them. Tell us honestly where you are starting from, and we will be better able to help you out.

Yes I own a 12 gauge, 20 gauge and a .22. The 12 and 20 gauge I have just used for shooting clay pigeons, the .22 I have used for plinking little 13 lined ground squirrels from 25- 50 yards. I am by no means an expert.

I was thinking with the right round, high velocity hollow point, I could rip a pretty good size hole with a .22.

The 12 gauge I would fear would loose effectiveness much quicker and would only provide a warning to the fox.

I agree a 223 would be a good choice as it is one of the better varmint rounds out there.

How about a AR15 with 223 and scope? I might have justification to buy one now

Or a nice single shot 50 caliber
