I have had the Quiet loads skip off a coon's noggin at contact distance. I shot a coon in my trap and it hit him right between the eyes, and he bled copiously from that hole, but didn't die. I shot him again, and he was still hanging on. I went back to the house and got a Short HP and finished him off. Tough damned coon, but I've sworn off the Quiets ever since.

Now I use CCI Subsonics or those Short HPs if I catch a coon in the trap. It's more humane. The Subsonic Segmented bullets work best of all, but are hard to find locally.

You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
