Seems we are getting a little off topic....
Howdy Andre,

I've harvested and eaten a lot of small game. You don't use military rounds hommes! .22 long rifle rounds are the round of choice for squirrel and rabbit. Makes a wound channel no bigger than a soda straw. Preferred weapon is the semi automatic Ruger 10/22, (10 round magazine/.22 caliber)

(Boy, I sure hope I didn't miss a post where someone says they hunt them with M-14's or bazookas or something!)

Squirrels living in oak forests have a smokey whiskey taste from eating acorns. Though I find a dressed squirrel looks a lot more like a former cat than a dressed out rabbit. Sort of puts me off.

(Oh, if you don't hunt, "dressed" means skinned, gutted and cleaned but not sectioned into parts.)
