So tonight I threw together a meal with rice and leftover rabbit. I was enjoying it until I bit down on a piece of shot and lodged it in a back tooth. I tried my fingernail, still stuck. I tried a toothpick, still stuck. I could feel it with my tongue so I knew right where it was, so I finally stuck a knife in my mouth and was able to pry it loose.
I guess you just do what has to be done.

There are few problems that can't be cured with the proper application of high explosives.

Head shoot them with a 22 and only one bullet and its in a unedible area. No shot to worry about.

I shoot them in my backyard, and the area is too populated to use anything but a shotgun.

I havent shot a rabbit in years but like to watch them in the yard. I do go tone farm that raises them and buy them dressed and ready to cook. At the farm we used an old 410 to gaurd the garden. It woorked good on Rabbits and small vermin, wood chicks coon and possums you had to be pretty close to get a solid kill. Ever barbeque a rabbit thats some good eating there.

Was just at the butchery. Vacuum packed rabbit whole: $20! I have left thousands of dollars out in farmers' paddocks.

So you recovered the pellet? There is usually some antimony in them with the lead, you just cannot check stuff like that out. Recycle. You will make Al Gore happy.

Could've just used a pencil torch to melt it into place. Saves a trip to the dentist. GW

Had a hound like that the first one was his he would take it and run out of reach until he had his fill. But he was a good hunting buddy.

Dad had a dog like that. When ya opened the trunk, he was off like a flash. Ten to fifteen minutes later, he'd show up with a fuzzy grin, ready to hunt some for us. He was magic on a brush pile. You just stood back, ready, and soon he'd shove one or two, out the other side.

That's why I quit eating shot rabbit and starting raising them. We had a rabbitry for maybe ten years. I miss them now, mostly miss the fertilizer for the garden.

I shoot them with an air rifle in back yard. Squirrel to. What is really fun to shoot is Ground squirrel they are fast and don't sit still long. I keep telling the wife that I'm making her a fur coat with them little pelts. It is going to take a lot of them.

Get you a good BB gun/pellet rifle.
Ive killed MANY MANY rabbits with head shots and round BB's out to 30-40yds.
