I would also go with the 22 CB Long's, AND have the pellet gun near by. If caught, just come out with the pellet gun

The CB's only travel at just over 700fps, and carry a little over 30 foot pounds of energy=same as a high powered 22cal air rifle at about 900fps And they are way quieter than any air rifle!

If you must use the pellet gun, take only head shots ;-)



P.S.

Please add me to the pissy list as well

How about a havahart trap and stout chunk of wood?

Nothing get inadvertently poisoned, the neighbors aren't disturbed, and you can have some rabbit pot pie out of the deal.

Aguila Super Colibri !!! 22lr. they are alot queter then the cb's. they have no powder in them, just the primer propells them. i have shot many rabbits and squerrels with them, (head shots). the wife she couldnt even hear them inside the house and i was standing on the front porch.
the only place i can find them around here is gander mountain and they are 3 bux a box of 50.
