i killed a beaver the other day with my slingshot at 12 yards with a 300gr 44cal bullet. the bullet did not go in but the head was soft like it had been hit with a bat. i didn't eat it because it might have rabides but, i am going to use the tail,fur ,and head. slingshot hunting is like bow hunting in that you have to get close to the game and it like your useing a Judo Point with a bow.
