"fur hunters use FMJ a lot on muskrat because they are small enough that they still die instantly but they don't explode and ruin the hide. "
I have no idea what the regulations are for others but in my state it would not be legal to shoot muskrats. Removal of nuisance animals is quite different from taking furbearers. I was presented with a rather stern commentary delivered by the local bunny cop for "disposing" of dike damaging muskrats using a rifle.
