You will need more than one shot. I point-blanked one with a .22 caliber pellet rifle with a cro-mag pellet and it wasn't enough to kill it. I felt like shite about it. I finished it off with a baseball bat.

(I killed it because it was going after my dog. Otherwise I would have left it alone)

Anyhow... even the bat wasn't an instakill. Maybe I just had a tough coon. My advice: Sledge it or 9mm it.

just hit the poor bastard with a shovel or stick. the whole pellet gun thing will never work. You'll miss or it won't have enough arse to do any good.

find an old axe handle or bat and hit him right on the crown of his noggin. game over.

I don't think you were doing it right.

You need to come to my neck of the woods for a killing lesson.
