    Back yard rabbits still a problem – got a couple more in the Fenn but about three out there most nights digging holes. Got very light shy and run fast – but couple of nights back one sat still so had a standing shot at about 40m – he squealed and ran off. Walked over towards him and nearly tripped over one laying flat about 10m away. Put the light in my pocket and loaded the Stoeger – light back on and he was still there - aimed for the engine room and heard the thump – but he ran off. Dog found it next day – it ran about 40m. Hit it just behind the front legs – internals were pulverised – the slug was under the skin on other side – slightly depressed and miss shaped. So the hollow point certainly delivers some shock power even when not hitting any bones. Couldn’t find the poor buggar that squealed.
