The Handi-Rifles are between $230-and $250 depending on where you buy them, possibly could get them cheaper. My friend uses the Handi-rifle in .243 for yotes, he slapped a 3x9 scope on it. It is very accurate. But seeing as you want to use it for squirrel and rabbits i'd go with the .17HMR. You can def. reach out and touch yotes with it, it won't destroy the pelt and it is smalle nough to use on rabbits and squirrel. No need to be firing .223 rounds all over the woods for squirrel or rabbit.

Depends on the bullet, the 20g xtps hold together prettywell. Besides they are plenty accurate for a head shot, at 150 yards!

The pointy ballistic tips will cut a squirrel clean in half.
