48 Yard headshot on rabbit - slomo
Daystate Pulsar .177
13.43g JSB Knockout @ 978fps / 28fpe
Hit a touch left and went in right at base of ear in the front, exited briefly and re-entered in back
Well damn it... just what I was afraid of.
No more head on head shots for me.
The slug went through the head, through the vitals but then also through his guts which is never fun to clean. So went through most of his body and came out his belly, slug lodged just under the skin.
The 13.43jsb knockout seems to be breaking up more than mushrooming. I just think 177 is too small to get consistent results as far as mushrooming unless you're just shooting into water. Cavity is just too small and if you make it any bigger it just breaks apart like varmint knockers

PP750 with 14.3 Crosman premier domes at 31 yds. The brazing rod shows the entrance to the backside of her head and exit, it was just enough to crush the back portion of her skull.
