CrittaHitta, 
The movie "Watership Down" was an animated movie which had animated rabbits in it facing adversity.

Thanks. I never heard of it. I sure hope the ending of the movie was different.

Dang that was a very productive outing!!!

And obviously some darned good shooting with a nice gun!!

The nice thing was it only took 2 hours and 50 minutes.. There are lots of rabbits still running around so I think watership down part 2 is on the way

Hey hey hey, there Derek, how about sharing in the bounty? :-o

"crittahitta"Thanks. I never heard of it. I sure hope the ending of the movie was different.

It was famous for being traumatizing to children because it was amazingly graphic for a cartoon. Lots of blood and gore when the rabbits were caught and killed by predators. I actually just mentioned this movie to my wife due to us having a farm in the woods and the death trap it is for small animals between our dogs, the snakes, coyotes, alligators, bass, bears, bobcats, and any other predator out there. 

Its actually a well made movie. Its just a bit much for young kids or people who don’t want a more realistic portrayal of the predator prey relationship.

Thats some crazy shooting there Sir. Excellent job...

Can I request the caliber, & fps of the rifle? Plus the yards @ which these lucky rabbits were blasted @?...

Thanks in advance...

Watership Down is a book by Richard Adams, then made into an animated movie. Looks like Eyeshot's gun was just as effective as the gas.

I was using the .25 jsb 25.4s shooting at 930fps. Yardage was 20 to 90. A bit overkill but it was a last minute hunt so I grabbed the gun on top of the pile.
