.223 is a very small caliber round, not overkill at all.

.22 won't drop small game dead in its tracks. .22 hollow point doesn't even kill a lil squirrel with one shot (unless you pwn it in the face, which proves difficult on such critters).
Yeah, most people don't realize that .223 isn't that impressive.  The bullet is essentially the same caliber as .22.   If I shot jacks with .22, they'd just run away injured, and die in agony hours later.  At least w/ .223,  you have some kinetic energy behind it.  I spose I could use my .44 mag lever gun, but that would REALLY be overkill......though using a lever gun would be damn fun when they start running.

PS-  I still get a kick out of people that think I get my ass kicked, and therefore must take it out on innocent little bunnies.  It's fun, it's legal, get over it.

I reckon a 22 LR, 22 Mag, .17 HMR are more than efficient for downing rabbits. Though i will agree they will not always ensure a kill, 85% of the time they drop though. But in OZ no automatics alowed, so most shots are pretty dialed in before u pull the trigger (no spraying).

.223 are overkill for rabbits because of noise, excessive recoil for target size, and cost.

But just as fun

I wish I had a permit and a gun. The missus is so damn scared of guns so I'm probably never gonna get one. But I don't mind. I've had my share of shooting range with an assault rifle.
