I looked into the cost of the 50 caliber sniper rifle and Oh My Lord are they expensive. So I looked into making one out of wood which is my solution for many things.
Unfortunately this only shoots little rubber bands so not very effective over 2 meters and it was hard trying to get within 2 meters of the varmint.
So I bought a live catch rabbit trap. A little lettuce, a piece of carrot and a small tomato for bait and within 24 hours I had Brer Wabbit captured. I took him for a little drive in the country and released him where he can eat someone elses garden. Not as satisfying as blowing it to pieces but a whole lot less messy.

Nice. Where did you buy the cage? I may need one or two.

I did not touch the varmint so had no opportunity to examine for the sex. I read that determinining sex in a rabbit is not that easy. In any case it has a much bigger field to play in now. When I opened the cage it took off like a rocket zig zagging before disappearing into tall grass.
