As was said, find a rabitty area. In early morning or late afternoon, sitting and watching as they move around to feed is good. A moving bunny is easier to see than a sitting-still bunny.
Walking-hunting is more fun, but it means a shot at a running bunny. The problem there is that the bunny doesn't know where he's going next, either. If you're in country where ricochets are not a problem, a semi-auto can be helpful.
I've used CCI mini-mag to good effect. I recently bout some "Quik-Shok" ammo, and did in a rock-squirrel. Impressive exit-wound for a .22 rimfire.
I'd suggest trying various high-speed hollow-points until you find the one which gives you the smallest 5-shot groups. I gues sighting in for dead-on at 50 yards is reasonable, and basically stay with the 15-yard to 25-yard shots until he gets a good bit of skill...
Hope this helps, Art
