    many years ago @gundoc told me with hares its more about penetration than expansion. a solid 22 round seems more effective with chest shots for sure.
    but dammit i have shot hares in the chest with multiple rounds and the buggas can still run 50m before keeling over.
    in the words of barry (peter jackson) from the greatest movie he ever made "bad taste" he says " headshots the only real killer"
