.243 for squirrel or rabbit?
Its legal here but do you feel its too big a caliber to be ethical hunting?

what is the best caliber to hunt southern whitetails with?
shots will be 100 yards or less in wooded areas.
For people who are knowledgeable in pellet guns..?
I recently bought a .177 caliber remington airrifle and it works ok at shooting squirrels and birds but it takes atleast 2 shots to kill a chipmunk and atleast 3 to kill a squirrel. I know i’m not shooting it on the wrong places because I shot a squirrel i in the chest a few times and it was still alive. Then I shot a bird and it acted dead but when I went up to it, it just walked away. Couldn’t fly though. I was doing research and someone said “I switched to a .22 caliber pellet gun because it is better to hunt with.” Should I switch to a .22 caliber pellet gun? Will it really make a difference?
