RE: Hunting rabbits w/ a shotgun question...

just use sabot slugs for rabbits...blow em right off the ground and make sure they dont move..thats just my opinion but after i shoot em i just leave em lay where they die..i dont want them so i just pile em up and feed the yotes...

Any shells you've got. I prefer #5's to the others though. You can kill them with any shotgun shells, depending on the range, etc.

.410 with #6 is all I've used for years. Does the job.

A 20 gage loaded with #6 Federal Heavy Field shells and a modified choke for spot and stalk, the same gun with #7.5 and a full choke for jump shooting.
