Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Small Game Hunting Squirrel with a 12gauge

The .410 is perfect for rabbits. As kid, I even got a T/C Contender in .410 which worked well on swamp rabbits. The beagles would bring them back around and they'd come slipping thru the woods. We'd clean them in the woods, put the carcass in a bread bag, stack them in our hunting vest. It didn't take many to make the hunting vest heavy. Mom made the best rabbit gumbo which we ate by the fire after the hunt. Great memories.

Here's my rabbit outfit. Made for light, handy packing. I didn't like the factory grip, found it uncomfortable. Made my own, like it much better.
