Well it does work but he wants to keep the pelts so the less holes the better (no exit hole). As long as the shot placement is good the ball or SP's will work just fine for his purpose.This will probably garner some negative response, but when I hunted coy and varmints I used a 3x scoped AR15 1/12" twist using either 55gr SP (handloads) or 193 ball. Either did the trick, whatever they say about FMJ. Prior to the AR15 I used a 4x scoped Ruger 180 mini-14. Hand-held "dying rabbit" call. Burned a lot of VN-era mil-surp 5.56 that way.
