Release your hug on the bunny. Shootin pds in the pasture is akin to shootin sewer rats in NYC. If you farmed you would understand. And no we don't eat them.

The .204 Is an intresting idea. That would be perfect. Once again though I am not going to purchase a new rifle for squirrel hunting. This thread was just too see what people oppionons are on shooting squirrels with a .243. If I am to go really hunt squirrels the .22 does just fine. .243 was simply target practice.

I think its wrong. Theres no meat left for you to eat. Its all tour up. If you kill it then you should grill it. Dont just kill it to kill it.

Buddy is a falconer and will feed them to his hawks if anything. No wrong doing here.
