Our favorite little cannibals are up in force.  How do you enjoy seeing terminal ballistics demonstrated?

Frontal Lobotomy.

Or a backflip. That way they have just enough life left to go back in their hole to give their family another meal.

Oh shit that reminds me the shot the person i was with made.  One in a million.  The .22 hit the little bastard from the side and all it did was scoop out both of his eyes and the front of his tiny little skull.  Little guy was trying to run around and make his way back into the hole but still quite alive.  Which category would that one fit in.

Dad and I like to hit them while they are crouched but standing . You hit them low and see how much Height they get . I have seen them go better than 10 feet in the air when motivated by a .220 Swift .

I'm disturbed by this thread and some of the responses.  The whistle pigs are living animals and we shouldn't be taking pleasure in their pain and suffering.  Sure, I've shot plenty but I always want a clean kill (no pain or suffering).  I take no pleasure in killing and certainly none in causing pain and suffering.

I agree, and those who take joy in an animals pain and suffering are simply sadists.

My sympathies are somewhat tempered by the images in my head of cattle stuck up to their hips or shoulders unable to free themselves.  Pleasure in killing?  No.  However, I do take pleasure in doing rancher or dairyman a favor with every one of those buggers I feed to the coyotes.

Besides, I'll wager a glancing blow from a V-Max, Varmint Grenade, or Sinterfire is significantly more "humane" than what Mother Nature has in store for them.

I dont think its sadism.  I do not think anyone has the skill to make every shot maim in the way the shooter wants.  I mean shit the little guys are only about six inches long at most.  Whether you like to say it or not everyone takes pleasure in shooting the little rodents, otherwise why would you be out there doing it.  I fail to believe that the only reason you go out is to rid Idaho of a rodent problem, to just do your civic duty.

Honesty is such a rare thing...... It is killing for sport, I am sure that no one is shooting to wound.  I go out because I enjoy it, no altruistic intentions at all...

Speaking of which, going out again this Sunday around 1100 I think with a couple of people.  Anyone is welcome to come along.  Going to the same place Black Canyon area.  Last week there was no one there except at the range when you first come in.  It was great if you go way back in the back.

The title alone is full of LOL

I believe the term is "schadenfreude"
 
Exploding groundsquirrels is not only amusing & entertaining, but also horrifically satisfying in the goriest sense of the words "pest control"

the same reason I can laugh at:
