Find out what the animal control laws are in your area. Years ago I use to shoot them in my yard with an air 22 pellet gun because the neighbor had a big garden. All the neighbors were pretty cool and nobody complained because the neighbor feed all of us out of their garden.

I did live really close the local PD and my Dad made sure that it was ok for me to shoot in the yard back then.(30 years ago) We had a small trap set up for me to shoot into by our shed. The local PD pretty much said as long as they don't get complaints about it they were cool with it. To be honest they did not know I was shooting rabbits but I would look to see what the laws are. If you are within the law then screw the neighbors!

22 rifle with 29 grain rounds. the only noise it makes is whatever it hits. still pretty accurate too.

We just blast them with whatever we have on hand.. Ever seen a wabbit after a .270 hit it
Just found signs of hog activity on the farm yesterday so its all out war.


Good luck on your wabbit problem, a pellet rifle will do wonders and cheap to shoot haha

be glad you dont have deer and other stuff doin thousands of dollars of damage to your garden.
