I'm impressed on the performance of the .30 cal. What is the weight of the pellet, what's the speed/fps.?

I'm impressed on the performance of the .30 cal. What is the weight of the pellet, what's the speed/fps.? 45 grains, and I think I have the gun set for either 850fps on the low end or 900fps on the high end. Its been a while since I chronied it. This gun is a pistol carbine with a short barrel. Very light. Quieter than how it sounds on the video. My lapel mike I was wearing is good for voice and not much else. Its good for about a dozen shots at this power level. I can change out the barrel and the breech cocker and run it as a .25. Its quieter as a .25 and gets more shots. But for the power and damage the .30 produces I prefer it in this configuration. Plus its deer-legal in .30. If I’m squirrel hunting and a big buck appears I can brain shoot it. The .30 I deer hunt with for taking normal lung shots spits out a 98 grain hp bullet at 900-910fps for several shots. |

Good hunt. Rabbit is one of my favorite meats. BTW - you can get a lot of meat off the back of the rabbit as well. I usually split it length wise into two pieces.
You’re right on the easy skinning w/o a knife. We grab the loose skin where it attaches the leg to the body and start the process by pulling it off at that point.

I cleaned many a rabbits when I was a kid. Hunting in the orange groves back in the 60s. It wasn't nothing to kill 7 or 8 in no time. Weren't no season on rabbits but salt and pepper. Like the old joke said.
