I would have liked a .45 or even a .40 cal. Other than the shoots. I'll probably be hunting snowshoe hares and jack rabbits. A.50 is too big for squirrels.

Some rabbit stew with a caplock pistol sounds like fun.

Of course any coyote I can call in close is in the dirt.

The part I love is rabbit season is 4 months long, and I can hunt the whole state. A lot different than just 9 days for big game, and you can only hunt one unit. If you get the draw. I'm done with it.

4 months of rabbit hunting in snow, is all I need to satisfy my hunting urge.
