FWIW, a feral house cat at 100 yards does not tolerate a 150 grain corelockt from a .308 well.

I give myself 50% chance to hit a cat at 100 yards with a rifle. I'm so bad at shooting a rifle.

What about at 30 yards with a .22 pistol?

IN!

Well I know I can't hit a cat from from 200 yards with a rifle, but I'm guaranteed at 6 inches

really? Man a cat is about the size of a kill zone on a deer so Im assuming you arent reaching out to get any deer, if you want to consider 100 yards reaching out?

Yes, I will NOT take a shot longer than 100 yards at a deer with a rifle.

I may try with pistol.

Only way I could hit a cat at a 100 yds is with my tikka .22-250.. even then it wouldn't be guaranteed center mass

It was a hell of a shot but I took its damn head off. Gun was on a rest and cat was sitting still. Don't have pic because I didn't want to end up like guys in Arky.

We used to ride around shooting cats with a pellet gun, fun times.

They are fat and hard to hit from a moving vehicle

Feral cats. Not house cats. Feral cats are a huge problem if left unchecked. They will kill any small animal they can catch. Usually just for the hell of it, and not because they are trying to eat. Just like hogs..... Killem all!!!

I had a literal pet cemetery in the backyard of my old house in Walker. Kept the trusty Benjamin .20 cal with scope in my truck. Damn near every night I pulled into my driveway I saw those glowing green eyes. That motherfricker was dead on at 50 yards. I know I had minimum 175 cats buried in that backyard. Hate cats with a passion because everyone would dump their unwanted cats in my neighborhood in Walker because I lived in the first neighborhood off the interstate.
