Really not good for much.ive seen it kill mice. But much bigger is useless. It just burns ferral dogs @20feet. Poped the same one three days in a row never left a mark on him. I took a round of it at point blank range from a derranger to the finger(long story) and it took some skin &meat off but didnt hurt the bone. I keep a rifle loaded withit for mice&small rats indoors but isny good for nothing else.
