The owner of this land would wish every rabbit was destroyed so I let him hear me booming away in the hope he believes every boom is a dead bunny.
However not every shot connects when using a smooth rifle!
Anyway I did ok and the meat is not going to waste.

I have forgotten what a Wabbit looks like, the virus wiped them out around here.......

Well done with the Kentucky, I miss mine but boy did those round balls ricochet.

Aye they can friend. The virus pops up now and then up here to. That's what happens when idiots become experts?

Nath, know what I learned about the snowshoe hare that hung around me this winter. He eats yellow snow! Only reason i can think of is he needs the salt... Todd/3leg

Hmm that sure looks like fun- blasting wrascly wabbits with a front loader! I've got the perfect rifle for it too,a T/C Cherokee.32. I tried it on tree rats but was a bit overkill if not shot in the brainpan.

I was never allowed to head shoot "tree rats" as my Daddy liked the brains so I learned to skin the heads and to eat them myself. The tongue tastes like hickory nuts. Both my parents survived the great depression and I was born right at the end of it. It made people with different attitudes. Funny what being hungry does to a person's appetite. When I first started muzzle loading I had a Lyman 50 cal. 1 in 48 twist was too fast for round balls and too slow for bullets but would kill squirrels if loaded with 40 grains ffg and a tightly patched round ball.
Great seeing you and Jess Nath.
