I was goofing around the desert here last summer. I had my little Colt Pocket Positive on my belt. It is a small doulbe action revolver chambered in 32S&W Long. It isn't exactly a long range outfit.

I spotted a jackrabbit standing next to a rock a good 15 yards away. I didn't think I had a chance, but decided to give it a try. It was going to have to be a standing shot, there was no cover or nothing to rest the gun on.

I cocked the revolver and aimed right at its eye. I squeezed the trigger, the gun went off, and the hare did nothing. It wasn't hit, but it didn't move either. The next shot hit it right in its eye. My grandson and a friend of his were there. I had them convinced it was a typical type shot for me.
