It was well below zero this morning so about 10:30 I figured the rabbits might be sunning them selves. So I grabbed my Ruger MKI with the tactical solutions barrel, and headed for the hills.

These are a couple of "Before" the shot and "After" the shot pic's

This is the final results of the hunt

I was out sat calling coyotes. It was too quite and warm for my liking so I was headed back to town. I got to seeing quite a few rabbits out sunning, so I grabbed my pistol and shot a few more.
