.22 short
Just went up to the farm to bust some bunnies and brought along the trusty Remington model 34 loaded with .22 short because .22lr is In hard supply and I have a million boxes of the 29 grain Remington stuff. On bunnies I shoot for the head so I figured the shorts will kill better than my pellet gun which I have killed hundreds of bunnies with. It performed better than expected with very little noise! I shot one and had time to reload and shoot his buddy 10 feet away from him! I can also fit 22 rounds in my tube using shorts. This guy who my brother had with him ridiculed me for using them telling me they are inhumane for anything bigger than a rat. He also said he wouldn't want to hunt near me because they ricochet. I told him he certainly didn't have to hunt on my family farm at all. Why doesn't anyone use shorts anymore?
