this mornings outing

[stubby 175]

quick trip over my permission this morning, bagged a few rabbits for the ferts tea, just out of interest, what do most people go for, HEAD or BODY shots

 

I myself normal go for engine room shots, just around the shoulder, have never had one run off from shooting this area, but this morning thought Id go with a few head shots at distance, I lost the first one, as it bounced/flipped so much, it got lost in the hedgerow, the next two I used engine room shots, a quick wiggle of the rear leg and thats it, the next two head shots, on later inspection had big loss of head bits, yet they both flipped/bounced like crazy.

think in future, I'll stick with engine room shots

Wabbits is funny things. Once shot one through the shoulders with a hollow point .223 bullet, both smashed to bits and what I thought was the heart was out of the animal also. Fecker still made it arms length down the burrow.

head shots,all the time,usually its only the 1/2 grown that jump all over the place,when you take there head of,usually with the 22 rimmy,and not very often at all if you use an hmr,larger bunnies tend to just drop on the spot,but the 1/2s are good entertainment,after a head shot,body shooting is normally a waste of a rabbit,unless you just use the back end meat,ian

I tend to just stick to head shots as the game dealer wont take other ones.
