Seen a lot of guys do this, get a bigger gun on a loved pet. I use a 22 mag or larger on a dog. Nothing worse than seeing a dog you love get back up and make a bigger mess flinging blood around.

Had to put down a few animals in my life, if I use a 22 it is a fmj.

I did use a 30-30 once on a pit bull, no mess, he died right there no suffering.
