What is your favorite round for shootin bunnies. I prefer the 22lr.

20g with high brass #5. It's not a good quail load though, if you bump into a covey.

Re: Favorite Round
My favorite is a .410... but as we've mentioned they are cost prohibitive, so I usually stick with a 22lr. Although, as dave mentioned, a 20g with a light load is nice if there are chances of jumpin a covey.

12 ga. 2 3/4" light loads. Doesn't tear 'em up and makes a good quail round. Usually can buy them for $2.98 a box. I got a crapload of boxes at Bass Pro a couple years ago and haven't had to buy any since.

28 1/2" Gold Tip Pro Hunter tipped with one of these:
Honestly, no more rabbits than there are in this area I feel bad when I run over one with my truck. I`ll just keep buying tame ones for $3.50 each.

But it was a long time ago, and it was just that one day.

.22LR HPs if I'm using my handgun; #6 12 gauge shells if I'm using the shotgun. I have also used blunt tips or gamestoppers behind a field point with my compound; that can be a lot of fun.
