"...blasted a bunny with a Garand..." Shot a ground hog, close, with a 220 grain Silvertip, long ago. No damage to the rifle, but the chuck had no offside. Bottom of the head disappeared on the first shot. The shaking made me thing it needed another shot. Didn't have my bayonet with me.
12 guage bird shot at very, very close range, just to see what would happen, made one disappear too.
