    I prefer subs (cci). I get good groups but don't get hung up on tiny groups any more as I have finally after years of rabbit shooting I am just interested in minute of rabbit.
    This doesn't mean I am happy to wound, I always go for a clean precise kill but a well placed shot behind the shoulder does the job every time.
    Swapping back and forth isn't so bad going from sub's to supersonic but coming back down the other way I find isn't so easy.
    Noise is a big consideration for me, I just can't be bothered with the noise anymore and don't shoot any unsuppressed rifles anymore.

    I have noticed that with the winter rabbits down here in Cromwell that they are very big and sporting thick winter pelts and the rounds aren't not as effective , the subs need to be well placed and even then they may go 20 yards before dropping.
