Oops sorry I didn't see the date.
From me answering the question now, it seems a similar issue has come back around.
So maybe after 10 years nothing has really changed.
Which would be very sad.
Sub 12 I use 177 as I usually take longer shots. So head shot but closer up I can get either head or if they're on the move a quick aim on centre mass. I did shoot a crow yesterday with my rimfire 40gr subsonic at just over 100ftlb.
I wasn't using it for that reason but I saw the opportunity.
