Just took a rabbit out of my garden this evening with my Rossi youth .22lr shooting a CCI .22short.
At 25 yards I took aim at his head but the bullet fell a bit low - striking the rabbit just above the chest bone. The bullet then penetrated through the rabbit and came out just below its anus. The critter fell over, twitched a bit and died right there.
They're not exactly cheap compared to Winchester or Federal Bulk Packs but they're not expensive either and are quieter than most high power air rifles. A 29gr bullet at 700+fps is lethal to rabbits and squirrels at closer ranges and is quieter than my Ruger .22cal pellet rifle.
